Awesome! That's right in my backyard. If my backyard was 64 miles away. But that's great news. Thanks

71 classic and 13 new were pre-registered. I cannot yet say how many walk-ins were in addition to that.

There is an article on it in the magazine "Moking" published by the UK Moke Club.    If you go to https://www.mokeclub.org/

you might be able to get a copy. It's the Feb 2017 issue. Grant Shaner, the owner, had a few there with the car at the MME show in Columbus.

My family and I had a great time.  Words cannot show how thankful we are to the COMO group for putting it all together for us.

Great time and I am sure a great time was had by all.

Guilty as charged your Honour ! 

Funny thing is though, everyone is remembering stuff I didn't say - that one was actually "Attention paddock, attention paddock, we'd like to remind you all that smoking in the paddock isn't big, it isn't clever, and it certainly doesn't make you cool, so please don't do it."

Thank you organizers, all. Lovely little burg to hold the Meet, nice venue and fun drives after the insane weekday traffic dissolved. Great to see familiar faces once again. Job well done, COMO!

So, presumably Alex, you are the "dry British wit" referenced in this Jalopnik article

I did indeed end up at FoS, and spent four days on the paddock PA system making people laugh and stop smoking.

From what I've seen (and I'm actually in a few of the photos) MME was a blast this year, and I'm truly sad I couldn't go as it looked like the organisers were utterly on the ball and served up a classic event.
