Dan

Anyone up for a TT get together?

Make a suggestion as to where please.....& you don't stand a cat in hells chance in getting Ruston near the beer tent! & all being well i'm sure a couple of us will be disappearing off to the pub in the village again on the saturday night....

Thats one idea gone then and running short on good ones lol, any ideas?

well, what about the pub on the road run at the Village???

yeah sounds good

Yea 'The Chequers' at Ravensthorpe sounds good to me chaps, however, I'm not sure if Neil takes his Aveling on the road-run.....

Simon

sure he might be tempted.....

the Aveling and the Armstrong from Market Harborough will be there.

Programme said the steam parade was 12:30, the web site said it was 2:30, there was a sign at rally control saying it was 4:30 and it actually turned out to be 3:30 - standard Hollowell logic...

Hi

What engine is the first one you show?

Cheers

Dave

Looks like a Mac to me, poss No. 682.

Looks like the weather was fantastic unlike up here where I am.
I will check out Steam Scenes for the rest of the photos in a few days .
I have also noticed that some event web sites quote a figure for steam exhibits and the actual number was way lower .
It is disappointing when the numbers are down because I may choose one event instead of another purely based on the expected show content , especially when there is two or more events on the same weekend.

Yes it's McLaren 682, first time I had seen it since GDSF a few years ago.

David you came on the good day! lol although sunday wasn't too bad, was a little damp.

Never had the TT meet up....or did we?? lol however, we did get Ruston in the beer tent quite a surprise... but there was 6 of us in discussion at one point!

Dam good show look forward to next year all being well

Yea brilliant show again. Sunday turned out nice in the end, and was quite warm in the sunshine, and at least it was dry for packing away and loading up etc after a damp morning....
