Default Leigh Arms Saturday

Another great day. More engines than ever before and the sun shone all day. I think everyone agreed that this type of get together almost surpasses the 'typical' rally and may be a lesson for the future of our hobby. If you have not been today, get down there tomorrow and join in the fun .. . . . . .. . .

A few images from today, we are back tomorrow, God willing . . . .

Dave, what a great set of pictures to show off a great event. You could not move in the car park for engines, I counted 17 full size and 11 miniatures (not forgetting the bikes, tractors and cars) . Any rally event would have been impressed with that line up. The free beer ran out about 4 pm just as I went and ordered 5 pints (just my luck). The cake was very good and I am looking forward to trying your home made piccalilli. Saturday Night was a good night with lots of beer and humour, Adie streamed his engine and had the lights going till after 11. Sunday was also a good day with lots of people coming to the pub, the public car park (field next to the pub) must of had 100 cars in it. I must say well done to those who organised the event better than any rally I have been to.

You're very welcome Tony.

Seriously, who does organise the event? Or does it just happen?
