What happened to Bodicea's Registration Plate? has it been re-registered or is this engine a replica?

Does not the large hole in the canopy rather give the game away??

If you had made the effort to go (who wears the trousers in your house? ) you would have seen it is a scale version Thomas.

And a superb version too - I mentioned my commentary that I took a similar ground level shot to Steve's at Abbey Hill, and apart from the number plate you can hardly tell the difference. Built and owned by Bill Kiddell - a ten year effort.

As others have said, a fantastic weekend - excellent weather, superb surroundings and the usual unbeatable Cornish welcome, friendliness and camaraderie. My first time as commentator at Boconnoc, and I was delighted to be asked back for next year.
Thanks all!

Hi John, as you say an excellent rally in all ways, we have been going for a number of years but this years was the best - more than happy to do the 220 miles each way.
By the way we were at Langport for the 3 days near the lowloader park but couldnt get up to the arena due to the mud.

Listen Ian, no need to get personal just because you wear tights to work when driving a class 47!
Regards,
Tom.

PS: Would you like me to send you a couple of pairs for Christmas? and what colour do you prefer?
