Just returned from the rally after roading back to horsham last night. Where do you start, what a well run rally there wasnt any high vis jackets escorting engines from their spot into the arena, you were allowed to run around the site at your own free will. The organisers didnt mind if you parked outside a tent while you and your crew took refreshment. The arena games on saturday were good and yes I may have cheated a bit in some of the games but we were there to entertain the public which I think we did. This rally was what they were like 25 plus years ago. That was when you were allowed to use your common sense when moving your engine around. Other organisations should take note that it possible to put a traditional traction engine rally on in the 21st century, A very big thankyou to all those involved in puting on this wonderful event .

Glad you enjoyed it Martin. Good to meet you, and yes, I agree, you all entertained the public magnificently, continuing to do so in the downpours on Sunday.
