Marcus Hardy, chair of the Vale of Belvoir Machinery Group and show manager said: “Due to unforeseen weather circumstances the show was abit of a wash out on Saturday, but on Sunday, it was very busy.

“We expect to have raised around £2,000 which we will donate to Notts Air Ambulance and other local groups and clubs.
