Oh Dear , no frying pan ?

Congratulations!
I did see it ticking over from afar (well, from the doughnut van to be precise), but didn't get chance to look round the rally this year.

Too late now, but perhaps we could have tried recreating the photo taken 7.5 years ago of the portable being towed behind the knackered Aveling. Lol.

All the best with it.

It was nice to see it in steam. Congratulations Dave

Well worth all the hard work I'll bet, David. Very much look forward to seeing it at some point.

Malpas 2014 Pictures
 

Hopefully a full set of pictures taken on a gloriously sunny early autumn Sunday including this R&H.

Enjoy!

The club's treasurer should be sleeping well, there was a very large crop of visitors.

Nice pic of the knackered heap. :)

...shame about the borrowed trailer behind - doesn't look quite as in keeping as the water cart, but it is a lot nicer to pile coal/tools upon and carries twice the water, so is a lot more practical! :cool:

Bit of a shame to give it back really.
