hi paul, officially 65 but a few more late ones are in the post, a good number i think. last year we had 27 horticultural machines and 7 stationary engines. not sure about the stationary engines this year as they have a seperate section but we have more than doubled our section and i have not added the loan exhibits ( weeks) yet until ive been down there to finalise things

When is this event taking place as I will be in Sussex (Robertsbridge) in mid August (15/8 to 24/8) for my holiday. It would be good to introduce myself and more importantly have a look at what there is. Cheers Andrew
