Boconnoc 2012

[Steam Scenes]

Now I'm back from the West, couple of pics that I took - Boconnoc is one of the highlights of the year for me.

Good to hear Bo-Peep is staying in Cornwall, and Mr Vincent tells me the engine will continue her WESES rally streak:



Clinker in front of Boconnoc house:




tasker_tractor came down with Tasker 1902 via Langport the previous weekend:




We didn't go to the rally on Sunday but we saw Gladiator and King Harry in full flight on the road returning home, amazing sights.

The other good thing is the programme - interesting engine information and wonderful pics from Andrew Williams collection. I hope Andrew or the Boconnoc organisers don't mind me putting a few on here, they are such a treat and I don't remember seeing any of them before:

God, I am so p***ed off withe not being able to get down this year. Looks like all had a great time. The pic of Clinker is so impresive, its got to be one of my favourite engines. Just look at it, shear bliss.
