Default Steam Party

A big thank you to Andrew & Edward Goddard and family for hosting a superb event this weekend, the Hospitality second to non, with a road run to a pub by the river and not a Hivis jacket to be seen! Superb.
I am sure loads of pictures were taken of the weekend and hope they are added for us to share.

Thank You Alistair Claire Alex & Sam

Lol!

Glad it went well chaps. Just sorry we couldn't make it as we'd already committed to the Conwy event.

I can do nothing more than echo the comments above. We all had a smashing time.

It was good to see all the kids of different ages have so much fun. I should have taken pictures of ''Uncle'' Edward driving the mower round the field with a trailer full of children yesterday!

It was super to see how many owners had made the effort to come just for the fun of it. As Richard says a proper steam party.

And another first for a long time 8122, 68754 and the trailer together. All ex Robert Bridson & Sons.

Many thanks Andrew and the Goddard family.

Hedd, Helen, Nerys & Mike
