No, that one isn't. We didn't go up the big one.

I had a thoroughly smashing time this weekend. Thanks to all involved.

Special thanks must go to Sawman for the super Brekky on Sunday and to Mrs BF for the shopping. Also to David and Karen Bloor for the super "emergency rations" which were attacked when the need arose. The bread and cake were superb! I will report on the jam later when I have had chance to try it!!

We also had a smashing trip on Parfield with Mike Carter & Family - brews and bacon butties while cruising the weaver!

Thanks to Alan & Jack T for the parking too!!!

A Superb weekend.


PS - tensile tested push poles a speciality.....

Pulled the fire through? On the return match on Sunday (it, didn't stop) we set fire to the brakes on the fowler, the lagging on the Burrell and a small child who was sat on the back of the Burrell - need a canopy!

Seems a little harsh - didn't they complain as you shovelled them into the firebox?
I trust you at least gave something out of the ashpan to the parents afterwards!
