Great news Clive.

I was worried that there might have been a struggle for a replacement venue now the Three Greyhounds has gone posh. It's a nice spot with some nice lanes to run around.

With luck we will have both engines there.

John

I will be there, will be a great weekend if anything like the three greyhounds last year, just hope the weather is better.

Dwain

Don't worry Dwain the sun is always shining when viewed through beer goggles!

Subject to getting my replacement cylinder block on Blackbeard I will be there on Sunday - with or without the engine. Hopefully Dwain will be in steam, or rather his engine will.

Regards

Brian

hello boys long time no talk. sorry ive been soooo busy at work. hows the engines coming on ? anyone got a fire going yet ? can not wait to see them steaming ! dwain whos closest to steaming?. brain hopefully will see you soon . need to have a good catchup .
James

I have seen a fire in one.... :-)

That's one to look forward to and sits nicely between Llandudno and Anglesey.

Cakes everyone? *sick

Both Brian's have had a bad run with both having to replace cylinder blocks that is why mine is in steam only. I hope to see all three in steam at the doo and the roof is on the way. After the steam test I have now started chasing the leaks and hope to have it rebuilt by the 11th May.

Dave I have missed the cakes.

Hi James

It has been a while and I did not see you at the Model show this year but it was late in the day when I got to the area where the Urmston portable track was set up. Had a fire in mine 4 times as I chased the leak. Check out my build thread on STW forum for pics and a video of it ticking over.

I WILL get my engine to this event if the cylinder is delivered in time. Hopefully Brian M and I can then put this behind us and get on with enjoying our engines.

I am also curious about the cakes that keep getting mentione whenever DAVIDJE is present! :p
