Onslow Park 2012
 
Onslow is looming in quickly.

We had a fantastic turn out on Saturday for the set up. The field ia all pegged and fenced out, and one Sentinel in place.

The ground is in very good condition given the current climate.

Two engines roaded over on Sunday, I believe ther will be a fair deluge roading in on Friday ( me included).

Did you get the sink fitted in time? I've got a blister from all our "Donkin" as Mr Cooper put it !:(

8_10 Brass Cleaner 20th August 2012 03:15 PM

Whats this I hear about you turning up late and fiddling with the pegs (again) Ken?

More importantly Nerys hopes Mr Goddard Jr is nearby again.

I believer the grumpier Arrowsmith will be heading over with a topless Foster on Friday also

Yes, The sink is all fitted - more importantly it passed inspection!! well you've got 12 months to recover 'till your next donking session.

It was a pre-arranged "late" but there may have been a touch of negotiating, and yes Mr Goddard Jr isn't far away.

Steam Scenes 20th August 2012 07:04 PM

Very good rally last year, we shall be there in the craft tent with a trade stall showing of some of the latest T-shirts etc, along with the sister company of 'Little Miss Rag Bag'.

Correct - 'Tilly' has the brains of a rocking horse as it is, 'Tiny' being 3 times the size becomes suicidal.

He is not grumpy just misunder stood.

Anyway having watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang this afternoon with the eldest I think that we should christen him "Baron Bomburst" for the weekend.;)

Plenty of washing up to be done again ! I think the grumpy one is between us, so he can baby sit the terror's, that will cheer him up;)

We will be there. Might bring the grandaughter with us. Can't start too early. We will be in Caernarfon until Friday so might not have much time for baking.
