This weeks blog entry is the second instalment about the annual Chiltern Hills Vintage Vehicle Rally which is a one day show for classic and vintage vehicles (including old Volkswagen camper vans) and is organised by the Game Club to help raise money for local charitable causes. The rally is a well established event which allows owners of classic and vintage vehicles to gather together in the glorious Buckinghamshire countryside. This event took place on Sunday 17th May. The new venue is at Weedon Park, Weedon Hill near Aylesbury and is a fantastic location for this great one day show which attracts well over 1000 vehicles of all descriptions and the Game Club had also organised: Children's rides / slides, a fun dog show, trade stands, an auto jumble, a beer tent, speciality teas, a pig roast, burgers and ice cream stands. I have been attending this event for over 10 years and it's one show that I really enjoy due to the huge diversity of the vehicles. Find out more about the Chiltern Hills Rally from their website here: http://www.chilternhillsrally.org.uk/ The review continues as I wander around the show.
