A Vintage Tractorey Sort of Day, Palgrave, Suffolk - 21st June 2015

The vintage cars-and-tractors show-type-thing that used to be known as the Eye Show is on again at Goodrich Park on the edge of Palgrave, and seeing as it's only up the road we head over to have a look, where it seems that most of the locals are there as well. Afterwards we meet up again with Marc and Suey and decide to have an impromptu lunch over at the Oaksmere.
