Tern Valley Rally.
 
After helping to set out the Tern Valley rally field during the week, I was dismayed to see the heavy rain we experienced yesterday, but all was well today with the sun shining strongly. The steam section was rather light on full size engines, but did include these:-

1931 Foster No. 14622 "Sir William".

1923 Aveling 6 ton roller No. 10460.

And interesting commercials such as this c.1936 Lacre road sweeper.
Let's hope the good weather continues for tomorrow.

It looks a nice day in your pic's.

But the road sweeper has got me thinking that B.A's wife's nagging him about not sweeping up !.

Sunday was another good day in that it remained dry although the temperature fluctuated wildly between hot and sunny then windy and cold. Just got the field cleared and tidied up today when the rain set in, so we were lucky with the weather.
