This year we were invited by the Essex and Suffolk Borders Region of the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club to their annual Car Show at Rickinghall Village Hall. We had originally planned to hold a joint Branch picnic with Essex Branch at Galleywood, but our usual members thought it was a little too far for them to go this year. So we organised a Branch stand at Rickinghall instead and on the stand we had 10 vehicles on display. One member had to park their car in the car park, as they had arrived just a fraction too late to join us on the field before the gates were closed for entries. Another member had brought his Ford Anglia to display instead of his Minor, so was elsewhere on the field.
We were amongst around 200 vehicles on the field along with side stalls and a craft fair in the village hall itself. Of course there were a lot of different types of Jaguar and various other marques of cars. One display on the ground was of model agricultural machinery and these were working too.
During the day we were joined by a Citroen Picasso driven by a young man in his twenties who was raising money for Cancer charities by driving the Land’s End to John O’Groats challenge. He had had Cancer but is now in remission. He had painted his Picasso in pink and renamed it the Pigasso!
