Nice to see 'Sunrise' out and about, looks like you had a great weekend.
|
A fantastic rally on a very good site, even the weather was good. But another year the weather might not be so good.

Some You Tube video and photos I found,
Charlie the Case was outside in Holland for 25 years before that in a museum in America.I bought it from a dealer in Belgium. Many thanks for a good weekend Charlie.

Had a brilliant day out at Abbey Hill as normal! Was a bit breezy so couldn't run the Mamods on the display but plenty to look at and people to talk to. Really good selection of engines I thought - will upload some pictures and videos later.

A great couple of days. Didn't manage to get there till Sunday and Monday, due partly to over-running on my Land-Rover rewiring project... However, it was up and running by Sunday morning and the rally was as enjoyable as ever - thanks Charlie.
|
A few pics please John? I didn't get a single one despite new betteries in my camera!
|
Thanks Steve, some great pictures there. Did anyone get a shot of Percy in front of the Wall of Death?
|
I paid my first ever visit to this rally on Friday and can only say what nice pleasant show it is with a good range of interesting exhibits.
However I found the sign posts to the event extremely poor (in fact non existant) other than the sign saying "Car park" once you had reached the site. Great show though. Jim S |
Jim, we have had a great deal of trouble with road signs this year, having lost around 30 of them due to the Highways dept being idiots. All I can do is apologise. We are looking into AA signage for next year.
If you visit us again in the future might I suggest you try either the Saturday or Sunday? There will be a lot more to see. charlie. |

Just to say that I did like the Welsh steam coal lovely clean burn.
|
I love that big Aveling traction and of course an old favourite marshall TE "Little Audrey".

A few more photos - if I can post them this time - have failed recently for some reason.

I think my favorite this year was the little Gold Medal, Sunrise - looks so good still on strakes.
