Interford 2003

T

he Interford will always have a special meaning to me, since it was at Interford 2002 where I first put Kermit on display. This year, it was different - Kermit has enjoyed a few modifications between then and now, and was also wearing his NSPCC gear and carrying our Kamping gear.

This shot shows the approach to the show; the Ka Klub stand is to the very far right of the shot.

Although overcast in this picture, the weather did improve – considerably!

The Ka Klub had approximately twenty Kas on show - twice as many as last time - and I met a good number of new members, as well as refreshed friendships with people I already know. If you were at the Interford show, and you know me, and I didn’t get around to chat with you, my full apologies! I had a busy meet!

The green balloons are not ordinary décor for our Kas, but are here showing support for the John O’Groats to Lands End Charity Road Trip appeal cause: the NSPCC’s “Full Stop.”

During the meet, I was invited to judge the Ford Sierra Owners Club stand cars, which I did. All of the cars judged were of a very high standard, and were in use every day, many as family transport - this is good to see!

These shots show the Sierra Owners Club Stand.

The JOGLE Krew also spent some considerable time tapping other car clubs for their spare change, and we managed to raise over £100 though this (and we all managed to get sunburnt, too). Charlie had promised to wash the four Kas if we raised more than fifty quid, well we let her off washing the Kas (because there was nowhere to do it), but instead put around two hundred quid, mainly in change, into her handbag for her to carry around.
