Thurlow rally
 

If i can get all the papers together and my steam test passed, i may be able to make this my first rally as an exhibitor:):)

Its pushing things a bit, but who knows.

If not then i'll still visit;)

first engine arrived on site today, Ex Essex CC Roller owned by the Philp family of Castle Hedingham.

4 more arrived today.

I'm heading over on Friday.

Just driven past on the way to a supplier meeting looks like several came over on Sunday after we had finished pegging the engine line.

Matt are you comming from Clare this year or all the way from Sudbury, have a good trip we are going over on Thursday.

Looks like we could have a record number of engines roading in this year!

Yep Horsheath is in cambridgeshire hope you have a good run over. If you drop through Culford and then Horringer you can avoid BurySt Edmunds I think from memory its 37 miles we used to go that way with the engine.

Have a good weekend Mr P!

Cheers

Beer Tent has arrived, and is licensed!

22 miles to do from Acton to Horseheath tomorrow - at 2.5mph it'll be a long day. Better than being at work though.

Happy steaming. :-)

Matt is going with Sir Douglas!!!!!
I have got to go to bloody work!!!!!

have a good trip Matt.

I'm going to stop writing my planned trips on here. Everytime I mention it the old girl decides to show her age and be troublesome.
First a cracked regulator rod then a dodgy flywheel. A slow trip became a lot slower.

Having said that we had a fantastic rally. Thanks to all involved. Great as usual. And the engine repair side show went down well too. Never seen and spoken to so many people in one day.

Glad you got the flywheel problem sorted out and steamed out last night.

Well done mate.
