@Professional-struggler I don't blame you that was ridiculous, I'm the same way calm as can be until the threshold is crossed then it's whatever happens happens haha
@@Professional-struggler we have enough disused RAF sites that are hand standing so why do they use them? Elvington would be good & it’s only up the road from me 🤣
Thank you to you and your family for making an entertaining video, also for your patients in getting to your destination. Hope you had as much fun. Cheers
It was a shower the show someone said some truck's was turned round so that would have pissed me off when they have probably spent a long time getting there amazing truck's ready
Hi Chris. Mate I would have lost my temper too. Well done for sticking with it. Looked a great show. You’re like a magnet for meeting interesting people. Keep up the struggle 👍
We've run a few events on the showground. They do love to tell you which gate to use, wait for you to do a traffic mangement plan, let everyone who's coming know where to go to, them change the gates at day before.
It’s not on that like. Paid your money, that’s what you pay for, organisation, facilities. I’ve stopped going to shows, they’re basically extortion. Great video though, always great to see your shenanigans.
Cracking vid as always Chris, would you say it was worth the struggle to get in? If your into your older tack I'd highly recommended heading to Llandudno transport festival next year, the have everything there... Cars tractors vintage trucks bikes, modern trucks and even miniature steamers, cost us 10 quid to get in for the day. Bargain. Keep on strugglin' 👍🏻
Come to Truckfest Scotland Chris youll be more than welcome and we're organised! You'll also get Tennents lager not that piss water Fosters! Scottish subscribers would love to meet you!
My mate from work took his tractor unit and he ended up parking up in a field next to the show ground because of the queue and he got in first thing on the Saturday what a mash up it was
I live 2 miles down the road from the Lincs Showground. The council put a 30mph speed limit in place on the A15 (usually 50mph) and other surrounding roads, ONE WEEK BEFORE this event ! Absolutely stupid decision, making everyone frustrated and having to crawl along for miles down a main road, a week before the event even started. I saw some pictures of all the trucks churning up the parking areas, as it pissed down with rain and turned the grass fields into mud baths. Trying to get anywhere for locals while all of the surrounding roads were literally long lines of lorries, was pathetic. I appreciate vehicles have to get to/from the venue, and I have nothing against trucks or their drivers, but spare a thought for locals who were stuck in all this, just trying to get on with their daily lives. The point you make about everybody paying, truck exhibitors, public, vendors, etc is very valid. The city council always charge everyone ridiculous money and make an absolute fortune, and they do this for every event in the city, the cycle races, the 10k runs, the christmas market, and more. The council make a fortune, and the city residents who might not even be interested in any of the events, have to suffer for it. When the 10k run is on, we can't even get off our estate, they close ALL the roads for hours, and we are literally trapped on our estate, it's a massive safety concern (fires/ambulance), and when you work all week plus Saturday, and only have a Sunday to get our or do shopping, it completely screws you over. The Lincoln City council don't care, they are making an absolute fortune .....
This is why the east of England showground was ideal for these sort of events, I went to my first BMF show there in 1981 and my last in 2012 and the mcn festival of bikes since. I attended my first truckfest at the east of England showground in 1985 and my last 2 years ago. I don't believe the decision to sell off the remainder of the showground for building was financial because they can only sell it once, I believe that Peterborough council had other reasons for stopping the various shows there as well as the speedway. Shame
@@Norfolkbiker50 Thank you for taking the time to read my comment and reply sir. I last went to Peterborough showground about 4 years ago I think, as I was working for Rimmer Bros at the time, and I was staffing the stand over the weekend. It seemed like a huge place, easy to get to, and perfect for such an event.
@@DjNikGnashers yes it was, I used to Marshall the main arena at the BMF shows, the mcn had a go at taking over but people used to come from all over the world for the BMF show and once it was gone I think that was it, same with truckfest, I know there are shows in other areas of the country but there was just something special about the east of England showground and sadly I think it's demise is the end of those shows.
38:58 did myself a very similar injury to that with a grinder 6 years ago , back in in a couple of weeks for some follow on surgery , be careful of grinders lethal bastards
You tell them Chris, I would have said the same mate, these places are pricing the good old working man out, of attending the events, taking a family it must have cost a fortune 👍
Evening Chris…..what a complete F Up…..they should be ashamed of themselves, if they had got sorted before the rain came, everyone would have been in on the ground without getting stuck….apart from that…….I’m amazed you still had a sense of humour, FairPlay……👍👍👍🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲👌😉
@@Professional-struggler No dramas mate. I saw Ash and Spanners for the second time there. Should be going to Convoy in the park at Donington this year, if you're going too I'm sure ill see you there boss
I was supposed to go with the firm I work for but couldn't go as had a wedding. The lads got there with the wagons at 9am Saturday morning and didn't get in till 6pm
Great video Chris I liked how you kept your call waiting the queue to get into the festival had a blue my top. Thanks for staying so calm. You’re a great video. Made me laugh. Bring it on.
Great video Chris, What a bloody struggle getting in hopefully they will sort their selves out for next year after the f up they have made being the 1st year they have done the show it can only improve, Thanks Chris great to see all the old and present day trucks and the art work on some of the trucks was awesome, I bet you were bollocksed by the time you had walked around with all the cans and bottles you were given lol 🤣🤣🤣 Cheers again Chris Looked a great weekend See you on the next one. Whoop whoop.
Chris, I was all set to come there Saturday morning.....but everyone I know that went was talking about the wait...... Wow love your kick off, I'd of done same or turned round and demanded my money back. From what iv heard, it was ok after getting in....but getting was a total fuck up.
Hi Chris I drove down from Scotland on Friday and only stopped at gate to show my pass. I walked round the ground all weekend and never saw you. But I bumped into the drains low guys 3 times. Hopefully I will meet you some day. All the best. That was an epic struggle you had
It's the people that really make these events, I only go to catch with friends although glad I didnt make it this year. Hate queuing even for a concert lol at least the weather improved for you all.
Lincolnshire showground organisation FTW, you would think theyd theyd of used platforms to protect the grass and make it more hard standing to save trucks sinking in the mud and opened gates for the trucks and also gates for the vans and camping 😂😮
Mr Kipling has missed a trick here with a sponsorship. The Professional Struggler makes exceedingly good videos.
😂🤣 cheers mate next up pedigree chum 🤣
They're made with only the best silicone 😂
I couldn't even breathe I was laughingso hard, "GATE 4 I'm not going anywhere, you'll have to drag me off with a wrecker" hahaha
😂🤣 they pushed me over the edge there mate 🤣 us British are famous for our ques but that was taking the piss 🤙
@Professional-struggler I don't blame you that was ridiculous, I'm the same way calm as can be until the threshold is crossed then it's whatever happens happens haha
If you and the kids paddled a dinghy to the gate and said "excusings please,is this dover", you might of got in for feck all chris😂

Cars tractors vintage trucks bikes, modern trucks and even miniature steamers, cost us 10 quid to get in for the day. Bargain. Keep on strugglin' 👍🏻
