Yes, I met a few new friends with engines, I did not get around to talking to Blackjack as I was far to busy, sorry Paul.

Best rally I have been to this year as far a trade stands, auction and don't forget the Can Can girls.

Thanks again Richard and Gareth.

I have some photo's, but will only upload if requested as I sure most of what I have everyone has seen before!

We also had a great weekend but then we always do at Much Marcle it is one of the best and most relaxed rallies we do.
I would like to thank all of the Hall Family they all work so hard to make it a good weekend along with the rest of the team.

i recon its all to do with that apple juce the chap was selling, as V8Spider pointed out it looked suspicously like boiler treatment, and he was probably getting revenge on basil for showing the kids to knock his bowler off by throwing apples at him rather than their scratter!

As mentiones elsewhere, many thanks to Gareth and Richard for looking after us all so well, Marcle really is a friendly rally.

I took a few pictures, mainly of what we were up to, there may be the odd one of interest to some.

This is us having some late breakfast near Wooferton on Thursday morning

And parked up on the field on the Thursday afternoon.

The rain stopped eventually on Saturday, so I did some cleaning.

and Nerys had a play on the Mann at the pub on the Saturday evening, she was thoroughly dissapointed when James had adjusted the regulator on the Sunday so when she opened the cylinder drains it did not leak!

Windymillars portable at work, presumably before he burnt all his coal?

and us again at Berrington at 8pm on the Sunday evening 25 of the 40 miles back to the temporary base done. We finished off yesterday morning.

the ploughing was at one point an all ladies team on sunday, and a good job they were doing too.
