Twenty full size engine on display, to include the Sentinel timber tractor from Australia, Puffing Billy the Foden steam bus, Sultan's Sentinel and a Stanley steam car. The Pride of Worcester in the Steam fair, plus one on the working sawbench and one roller on road making. 57 Real ales across the bar in the beer tent, plus the train rides. Please come over and visit us this year. One of the friendliest shows on the circuit!

Its a great little show, not so little any more, i think at least 6-7 island engines. Its a shame more folk dont come over, they dont know what they are missing, and the beers good to. Cant wait to get my girl back together. Not long now, till the show that is, the old girls a little way off.

Do try to get over Tom, it would be nice to put faces to names being a bit cut off from the rest over here. Stand you a pint. I will be with Wallis advance called Vital Spark.

Went today, had a great time, nice to meet some TT members!

My only dissapointment was that both showmens were not in steam, I couldnt find anybody on them, and no reason why they were not in steam. They did not join in with the steam line up either. Did seem a bit slack?

Wish I wasn't sooo busy, would have come up for the Cowes-Torquay-Cowes powerboat race ( one boat I built hull and deck for is racing, and my buisiness partner is driving another) and gone to the show whilst I was there,
