just returned from netley marsh as usual a first class show put on by the organisers and helpers. forecast may have kept gate numbers down on saturday but the rain came much later than expected so it did not upset things to much. engine numbers were in the 40,s all major makes were represented. i hope this year makes up for last years dissapointment as the organisers had no choice but to cancel because of ground conditions. a big thankyou to all involved.

We've also just got home after our first visit to Netley Marsh.
We thought it was a very good rally, with a good variety of exhibits
and a friendly atmosphere.
Something that was particularly impressive was the "working steam"
area, with numerous engines driving saw benches, stone crushers and
agricultural kit.
This will never be a rally which we go to every year, because of the
distance from home, but we will certainly go back, and would have no
hesitation in recommending it to others.
Thanks to all those who worked so hard to put on a great show.
Stef.

I must add my thanks to everyone who organise the show (all volunteers). I had a great weekend everybody really friendly making the long journey worthwhile. Nice to have met two TT'ers who I am sorry to say I cannot remember their names (I will in due course, memory and body not as good as it might be)

A very big THANKYOU to everyone at Netley Marsh.

Arthur

Thanks, Arthur. At least I'm not the only person who made no impact on you!

Hope you had a safe journey back to Suffolk and look forward to showing
you round Boconnoc some time.

Stef.
