I made the mistake of trying to get to the show by driving through Farnborough town on Monday.
A bad move as I took two hours plus to travel 1.5 miles from the edge of town to the car park. The whole jam being caused by cars turning off into the exhibition area at the roundabout by the Hilton Hotel.
It got so bad that if I could have turned around and gone home, I would have. Around lunch time the traffic cleared, and by the time we left, 1500, we had a clear run out.

The other strange thing was that there were so few people around as we left. Mind you, with the heat and traffic aggravation, maybe everyone else had given up.
As for the static park, not a lot to excite the palette I'm afraid, or maybe I'm just getting too old for this stuff?
