You could of course always pick up a nice shiny Fowler on your way through......

Does not the large hole in the canopy rather give the game away??

Although some cracking shots these two stand out.

Good to see Gladiator tucked well into the fair as showmans engines ought to be! Not standing out front on show and as for Charlie D with the timber trailer, with a few tweaks could almost of been taken years ago!

Gladiator doing the job she was built for and doing it well.... no doubt the old girl steamed to and from Bocconoc too. Its always a pleasure to see this fine engine.


Charlies old SCC looks a real treat too... as always.

Listen Ian, no need to get personal just because you wear tights to work when driving a class 47!
Regards,
Tom.

PS: Would you like me to send you a couple of pairs for Christmas? and what colour do you prefer?

Should you fancy doing a summer of South West rallies, there's a shed quite familiar to said Cornish engine that you're always welcome to use as a base for a few weeks.
Definitely Boconnoc and now WESES at Stithians are going from strength to strength. Both set on very different but very good sites with roads - we're extremely fortunate in Cornwall to have them.
