Ah - funny, image is fine here - maybe photobucket is just a bit slow tonight.

Site for tickets is http://www.necclassicmotorshow.com/
Discount code for single tickets is CLUBS09 (reduces price to £13 from £18 I think )
Discount code for family tickets is CLUBF09 (reduced price to £32 from £45 I think )

For every ticket stub given to us during the show, we get £1 back from the organisers.

Oh - and I've just ordered some nice A4 acrylic stands to put info. sheets on top of the cars and a freestanding A4 10/20 sheet acrylic "book" thingy so we can have some additional information for people to flick through - at this rate we might start looking professional :shock:
