Default Weald & Downland rally.
Spent the weekend at this fairly new. ( 3rd year i think) rally, it is like rallys used to be 10 years ago, very relaxed, beutifull countryside. The organisers put on a free buffet for ALL the exhibitors on sat night, with music from a steam powered gramaphone. Here are a few pics for you to enjoy. Alan.

What a great Rally!!! Well done Mr Webber! My family have been friends of Singleton for years and I have never seen the car park as busy as it was this weekend! Great lot of engines, lots of new ones for this years show. Nice to see quite a few 6" engines, a few Burrells, A McLarren and a Wallis. Cant wait for next years show!

It's a Marshall. I think it was dated at 1862(?). Heres a picture of it with Victoria at Singleton

I only went Sunday but had a great day with the Burrell, great fun driving through idyllic surroundings. Fantastic to watch William the Second on the saw.



.....and who ever said a 6" Mac was the biggest of the 6"?? What a cracking engine though, almost could convert me from Burrells.......nah!
