Forgot to say, I could provide accomodation, in the form of a living van, in which everything will be antique - no modern luxuries

It’s a good idea James,
But may I be the voice of reason here - as most of us have to drive 6 to 10 hours each way to get there may I suggest you do it on a SATURDAY over a long weekend such as next years "Spring Bank holiday" 24 - 26th May.
That way we have time to get there, stay on the Saturday night and still have plenty of time to get back home afterwards.
The bank holiday at the beginning of May is to early as most people are ding DIY and sorting out there gardens etc. And as MTA said any later and most people are all a bit busy with summer in full swing.
If you advertise it early enough I am sure a lot of the overseas Forum members may even consider swinging by.

| Kritika has a good point. It isn't far for me, closer than STIA, but for people coming from afar Saturday would probably be better. |
