Default Dene rally Ropey

Had a great time at The Dene Rally a new one in the calender... The weather was ok on Saturday with lots of engines chuffing round the field then Saturday night came the rain and not much movement on Sunday or though some good winching demonstrations to get a Aveling roller out of a couple of sticky problems!!!

Sadly the public didn't turn out either to come and see this good new little show, had 7 or so full size steamers and a handful of minitatures not bad for the first year...

Hope that this one will be back next year because you can count us back in...

Now for some pictures...

McLaren "The Favourite"

Aveling being towed out


Aveling stuck again


Finally the Aveling come to rest on the barn roof and all hands on deck to get him out...


For more pictures visit the Sewards of Petersfield facebook page

Thanks for looking....

Thanks Wendy for posting the pics, it was nice to be camped next to your engine, a great sight in the morning when I opened the caravan curtains!

Nigel and I look very interested in something!

It was a great weekend despite the weather and small public turn out, here's to next year!
