Despite inclement weather a large crowd enjoyed the "Men in Sheds Festival" last weekend at Sandown Airport.
The event, presented jointly by WAM (Wight Aviation Museum) and the Island's Men in Sheds groups, was sponsored by the Royal British Legion and Wight Aid, with support from Community Action, Isle of Wight.
Men in Sheds groups to attend on the day came from Bembridge, Nettlestone & Seaview, Sandown, West Wight and WAM Men in Hangars.
The visitors were entertained with live music from Wootton Acoustic Music Shed and Whippingham Music Shed.
There was even a small Beer Festival.
Due to wet weather this all took place in WAM's new "Hanger Two" with additional indoor space provided by neighbours "Ability Dogs 4 Young People"
Helen Blake, chair person of WAM, said:
"A lot of hard work from the WAM Team and all the Men in Sheds groups resulted in a fabulous weekend for nearly a thousand visitors."
