Well what another great rally, weather great, and the the chap on the PA was exceptional, bumped into Keny1, think I saw bugger off and one or 2 more.
and who said its a no movement rally, there was lots of movement.
the circuit of tarmac road round where the engines stood was being used as a play pen, and there is always one who wants to go the wrong way round. if the weather holds out it should be a good day tomorrow

David is quite right, there was movement and no one told us off for doing so, full marks to the organisers for a very good and well organised show. There were lots of great engines and very friendly owners and drivers.
Just got the engine back and steaming it up to get in back in the shed. Heard lots of comments about our engine that is is a 6 inch scale one! (Most people got it right!)

A nice selection of engines, good to see 'Supremacy' Lady Raglan and the big Robey .
I thought it was strange that the Red Arrows didn't do their usual flyby. Unfortunately I've just found out they have had a fatal crash at Bournemouth airshow with the loss of one pilot. Our thoughts are with his wife, family and team mates.
