Coming from the North, down A1 a lorry had broken down a few miles north of Newark, so a 20 min delay

 

Once we were rolling again, off at the Newark junction from the A1 and into showground, parked up within 7 mins from leaving A1

 

That was at 9.30am

 

I saw no queues, getting in or out today - but heard many horror stories coming from A17 or A46
