Why not ask The Man Who Knew Too Much? he knows everything

Anyway I can only guess that being an Aveling it must belong to a discerning Man of Steam

Not a very discerning man of steam of course, otherwise he would have stuck with Fowlers
But hey! we all have aberrations and brain failures now and again and this guy must have a soft spot, ( probably Fenn's Moss)

I wonder whether the owner will be needing a new mobile beer shelf?

Cracking event, not been before, missed the pie rolling, but nevertherless, nice little turn out of engines, including the latest which I am led to believe "arrived in the dead of night", plenty of TTrs about as well

Nice to meet you Bryn. Sorry I didn't realise who you were at the time! I was the one George told you to speak to about Castle.

A massive thanks to all who came and supported us. We had visitors from as far as Manchester and deepest Shropshire. Apologies if I didn't get to thank you in person. As Mr Contractor said there was a surprising number of the steam community present - a really welcome development . That may have been due to the new engine in the area, I think I was the only person in South Cheshire who didn't know about it. The event raises money for local charities and the guys bring their kit at no cost to the village and massive cost to themselves. So a big thanks to:
Mr Basil
Mr Boesing
Mr Millington
Mr Sawman
The bloke that brought the new engine
Mr Black
Mr je for some fantastic photos
Mr Bee and the bike - I see that no-one took up the challenge and provide more spectator sport.

Cheers
M

Ooh

Looks like the picture has been removed.

Wonder if Lacey has been de-friended or is he too much use to The Argument.......?
