Fawley Hill and Castle Combe Events

[Cyder]

RE Fawley - excellent photos and an apt review - more engines arrived late Friday and more public over the weekend, and although it was quiet, you missed something, it was an excellent birthday bash. The evenings saw engine crews and other exhibitors relaxing around the big top whilst engines were running around and playing till very late. Most importantly, Lady McAlpine seemed to thoroughly enjoy herself and so did all the exhibitors and crews.

Events full of exhibits and public creating that "atmosphere" can easily become 'boiling-water' events with a slow race highlight, it's often more fun (and considerably less costly) to run the engine to a pub and skip them.
