more from brian, a massive turnout at capel with stewards by the dozen - but they were getting a bit stressed where to direct cars with every possible space full.
trust brian to be thinking of food while all the excitement was going on.

just got this in from paul harrison, i thought at first he had ascended to the heavens in a chariot of fire but apparently was taken by one of the red arrows.
it really does justice to a beautiful site.
