Talk about extremes in weather!!! So pleased we didn't have a repeat of last year. Here are some photos from Saturday in the small arena where the miniatures were 'playing' ... I mean 'showing off their skills!!!'

Hi,

I didn't see you there, what day where you over? Should have come & said hello.
Some good photos & one of the scabby roller on the stone crusher.



Cheers

Dan

I was about, but I was on kitchen duty!! So I may well have been in the living van. Stationary engine... what have you picked up then? No I am afriad that Adagio won't be going to Dorset this year but maybe next.


Dan

P.S I see that we have photographic proof of Mr Millard driving a Fowler!!!

Actually Bob's 'good taste' started at Dorset last year!!

A few Pics I took late Sunday. Looked to be a good "do" if only I arrived earlier!
Good to see Dan again and Adagio plus interesting Series one. :)

Its only when you drive something like a Fowler that you fully appreciate a claas machine like an Aveling!

On a serious note, it is a credit to our hobby that when a chaps engines are out for work everyone lets you have some fun on there's. I have driven more engines in the last year than I ever did when ours was on the road. Special thanks to Rob & Sarah Rymer.

Bob Millard (stylish hat advice offered free)

Thanks Roger for posting those photos & yes it does look as if young Tom is a little worst for wear!! ;)

Also sorry yet again for being a little slow on spotting you!! I blame your haircut myself!!;):p



Hope to see you again soon.


Dan


P.S Yes Martin's series 1 is a bit different, I guess it's the rover V8 under the bonnet!!

no need to say thanks bob we should thank you for taking ollie out....

Hi all
Excellent weekend at Netley, thanks to all.
Brilliant pics, Iron Ada and many thanks for taking an interest in what us miniature people were up to in the small arena.....it was good to stretch our wheels and show the public that we are not toys but can do everything our full size counterparts can do!
Hope the money rolled in over the weekend and that the rally is secured for many more years to come.
Enjoy the rest of you rallly season
Jill

My pleasure Jill. It's nice to see the miniatures doing something and showing off their talents!!! If you'd like some of the photos, pm me your email address and I'll send you some more.
