Pete- Thanks for the reply, but I feel a bit guilty about being described as a restorer though (Paticularly in the same sentence as the other names you mention). I look on my self as a collector/magpie. As I've mentioned in the past my only MV is a FFR landrover and sankey trailor, which lives on the path,as I've no garage. The older vehicles deserve better.
I really hope more younger collectors come along as there's a lot of MV's that need saving (there's a scrap yard in Bolton I see occasionally with something military looking at the back-probably nothing unusual-50's or 60's? truck , but the AA hatch in the cab caught my eye).
I can understand your views about the organisers paying petrol in the past (although W&P do say something about paying petrol for the more unusual vehicles-probably not many though), but I look at Beltring as a week's holiday and don't mind paying my cost's-admittedly a lot smaller than some. I would like to go to more events, but I feel slightly out of the loop living up north(and at the moment my ever changing work rota see's me working more satadays than I'm off).
Also I collect all sorts of surplus junk as it is-much more and I'll be living in a tent in the garden with the house full of it.
I've no time for drug's-I've got a history habit.
Dougie
