A selection of my pics, I will post more on Steam Scenes when I get home:










































Living in Cornwall sends you a bit mad, as this pair will testify:




Gladiator nearing home, such a sight to see her in full flight on the road:






Thanks to the event organisers and those who brought engines. I will have a more extensive collection of pictures on Steam Scenes later this week.

Thanks Dave for sharing those with us. One year I will get down to Camborne to see the event for myself. However, at the moment I am concentrating on getting myself fit after my illness as I have been virtually housebound for the past two months apart from visiting Doctors and Hospitals.

At least the time at home gave me the opportunity to prepare further articles for Vintage Spirit one of which will be in the next issue and will be completely different from my previous ones!, plus, there will be something special to go with it!

A great weekend in Camborne!!! Thanks to Jon and Co for organising it, Charlie, Robin & Steve and Co for organising the load, and everyone else for making it one of the best events of the year! Well worth the trip, couldnt recomend it enough! Ive took Hundreds of photos and wont put too many as David and Steve great photos sum up the event well,but a couple of photos of the road run today! Cant beat following engines on your bike in beautiful Cornwall!

Just like to point out that the Robey Tandem roller ,RL 75 in the pic above , is intending to road to Dorset this year! A huge trip for such a small, slow roller. Well done to the owner I say!

I saw them out on the road yesterday Jim! I was really suprised how well it seems to road! The driver had a nice seat, and with its trailer is still quite small and easy to overtake! Still a trip to Dorset is hundreds of miles, cant wait to see it!!

Can anyone help with engine details for the Fowler I believe in pictures 4 and 8 which looks to be 'as found' engine.

Thanks in advance
