Chris.

Duncombe Park Rally
 

First class rally with a very good selection of engines a credit to all concerned it was over a 400 mile round trip for me for but well worthwhile.

Agreed , nice setting for a rally and fine exhibits to match .
I took a stack of photo's and the haulage pen is a really good addition.
I didn't see the McLaren road loco' belonging to the club chairman that is a work in progress , hope it's out in the near future .

Dave

its going to Dorset this year i was told .

Chris.

Had a nice day out with the family on Saturday. There was a great engine line up. It was nice to see so many engines from north of the border. The two Jamies were doing their best to wear The Scout out. They must have travelled the equivalent of roading it from Potto pulling the trailer around. It was also good to see Mr. Collins sporting the latest in "on engine" sound systems.

Our first time at this rally,must say I did enjoy it.It was much larger than what I thought it would have been.

Oh no what has he done now!?!? :D

Had a great time out with the Scout

Sounds like it was a good do.

Where's all the photo's then ??

Phil

Towing a jazz band in a trailer. He looked to be in his element.

when i spoke to him as he went round, he said " cant here you with this radio on "

Chris.

Phil

Not sure , she didn't parade around the ring but was later given a run around the site .

They were having problems getting the water pump to work. thought it had some air in the system, guess tpping it over to that side would help a bit ??

I'm still suffering from a bit of arc eye after the events of Sat night!....

LoL. That would be undaunted. and the ring of fire round the com on the dynamo.

The roller was rebelling that night lol

And the incandescant light bulbs. Maybe it WAS trying to tell the new owner something.......

if you were ther craig you might have gotten the joke as it was about a sertain engine that was outside the beer tent on saturday nite whitch was rather (bright) by saying lightning 3 i havent made a spelling error it was a joke that no one got about a certain engine;)

It was the best nite 4 a long time thumbsup There was 12 showman engines at the beer tent on saturday nite then there was 11 showman 1 had abit to much power on *sleep

Ah that's ok then!;) Bless him!:D

Perhaps he selected the wrong programme on his washing machine .

Ouch!!

maybe the dynamo is at fault, i wonder where he bought it, he might get a refund if its beyond repair.

Chris.

Perhaps the addition of a set of governors might help solve the problem.

dont tell me your trying to sell that dynamo chris will still look good with a belt on your burrell oops sshhhhhh

and you said you would keep it quiet, might as well have put it in the national express.

Chris.

nice one thumbdown If he did wat he was told to do with it,it would of been ok....thumbsup

they have tried shorting it out, the only way it works if you give it plenty of revs and shut off before all goes bang, anyone know how to make it work please tell.

Chris.

Suppose its only what you get when you try and make something that was into something it was never supposed to be.
