This canal festival is held Bi Annually at Huddlesford, not far from Lichfield, Staff's. The site again was well packed with stalls, an event arena and a car show that surrounded the site on three sides and at points was 4 rows of cars deep. The local canal was packed too with some very well restored and preserved barges and boats. CMBC had a stand there and it was well attended during the day, hardly a minute went by without somone either just looking, taking pictures of the boats or stopping to ask questions. So much so that I didnt get enough time to venture along the canal towpaths to take photo's of the boats, barely making a half tour of the main field site. One of the issues of only having 2 people on a stand im afraid, you are always kept too busy to get some free time.
So heres some pictures of the day.

My Thanks to Andy for his support and efforts on our club stand again. Sterling work and I think, a great display.
We have already been asked to attend in 2 years time at their next event !
