Big Boys Toys

Big Boys Toys

The annual Big Boys Toys had a strong automotive flavour this year with around half the total exhibit space comprising things automotive covering cars, bikes and construction machinery. Given that, the lack of imagination around the actual displays (rather than the vehicles themselves) was rather disappointing, as in many cases they were just parked with no real context, explanation or even purpose. There was also a lack of vehicle distributor support which did not help in terms of excitement levels. Some of the things spotted by your intrepid photographers Cathy Parker and Sean Willmot are shown here.
