Bon-Fire-Bar 2011
 

Many thanks to The Firebar family for the invitation. What a great day relaxing day in the company of engines and engine men and women. We went on a ride to a pub which had burnt down long ago and enjoyed the experience. We put more faces to TT names and saw how close Joe was to finishing his restoration. We also went a little way in helping Blackjack to overcome his aversion to Foden's - I hope the therapy helped.

Easy to miss off when they are not Foden's eh David? ;) Looks like it was a good day, was it a stray spark that caused the pub's demise?

Indeed big thanks to tony, sarah, the little firebars, bill, ted, joe and the list goes on.....superb hospitality food and entertainment.
special thanks go to the Carneys for a ride on the sentinel round the lanes top job with the cone of flame out the stack on the way back at 40mph!
