Default GDSF 2014 - 100 Photographs
100 pictures that I took at GDSF over the week:

Wednesday





























Thursday











































Friday

































Saturday

































Sunday

































































I have hundreds more. If anyone wants a particular engine please ask, I will have it.

As always a completely full on week, loads new to see, and people to chat to. The rain at the start of the week did make life a bit difficult but it only really stopped movement in the main ring. Ploughing, showmans engines, threshing, woodsawing etc all carried on as normal.

Thanks to all involved, the volunteers who organise the event for weeks (months) in advance and those who prepare and bring engines. The cumulative man-hours to make the event happen must be colossal.

I have been home for less than 24 hrs and I wish I was back there.

It would be even better if a PH was in the playpen.

No. Mr Antell was in the sawing demo area though. Nice to see back out. I did see Mr Webb in the distance though.

Here you go. Cornishman moved down to it's usual spot by Dean's organ later in the week:






A picture of A&P 10431 which I've been asked for:




A not very distinguished picture of Garrett 33818, Lady Olivia. I'm sure I have some better ones but I can't find them at present.




And a picture of the new Rasdale family Garrett 33259 Invincible which was great to see and I'd forgot to include:
