You were deep in conversation on anothers engine when I came by to say hello and I didn't like to interupt.

I thought the stewards (red flag carriers) looked disinterested. There just wasn't the atmosphere of past events.

Well I am sorry to have missed you, hopefully catch up with you soon.
Thanks for the photo of the rust bucket, most grateful.


All the best

P.S Not sure if I would return again next year with my engine, not that it would be any skin off there nose.
As I know my engine isn't exactly showroom condition!!

Visitor number were certainly well down on the Saturday. Yes the Doveys were listed but they did tell me at Brighton the week before that they weren't going this year so maybe some breakdown of communications there? Overall didn't have the feel of the first few events but the weather didn't help either. Lion was not listed as attending. After talking to Doug and mate I suspect they won't be rushing to rubber another engine in the near future...
