Default En route to Strumpshaw

A&P GND tractor 'Margaret' and Foden road loco 'Monarch roaded in about 30 miles to Strumpshaw today. I caught up with them in Thorpe, a suburb of Norwich.




and again in the village of Brundal.


Where Margaret is seen entering Cucumber Lane.


If the people manning the road works had more gumption, they wouldn't have sat and watched as Monarch very slowly flattened a row of cones!




We had the usual trouble in passing a pub.


The team.


Nearly there.




Made it and ready for another pint.


Thanks for the entertainment folks.
Bill.

Excellent.

I assume from previous chats the 80" Landy is Simon's? Nice to see it

Whoops! Sorry Sparkright. The Landy belong to Ed Thomsett, Simon's partner in grime.
