I came to Beaulieu yesterday and greatly enjoyed the event. The trade stalls were very useful, I had no idea there were so many A7 specialists. I had dealt with one or two online, but several were new to me. It was nice to chat with them and many fellow owners. I got a lot of questions answered.
A couple of comments as a first-timer: It wasn't clear to me the procedure for arriving without a ticket or an Austin 7. I parked my modern in the main museum car park and walked up to the gate, which seemed to confuse the person there. He nevertheless allowed me in as "it wasn't busy and no-one was looking".
I saw people carrying event programmes and intended to get one when I saw them on sale. It was only when I got back home I realised I hadn't seen them available anywhere so didn't have one. If there is a list of the traders anyway I'd love to see it, there was one in particular I'd like to contact but I failed to note his details.
A very useful day, and many thanks to the organisers.
