It was anticipated to be a small show so we had no expectations. The arena was out of bounds because of the wet but what a smashing day out. It was a very relaxed affair with plenty of opportunity to sit and chat to old and new friends. A birthday was celebrated amongst the minatures and the sun shone all afternoon. We went along with our daughter and grandaughter so we looked for things to entertain them but grandaughter loved the engines. I was kindly invited to steer on an engine which had a name beginnining with 'F' so it was close enough so Mrs davidje took most of the photo's. The first person to say the photo's are an improvement gets no cake.

Good Photos David....

But of course, yours are equally as good, possibly better (depending on how much Red Onion Chutney or Bara Brith is involved.... )

We all enjoyed it. I've ordered a few prints for when we next see you. Lewis is a great lad, he looked after me very well, you must be very proud of him. His only advice was "Remember to keep steering right". It was good advice seeing as how we were going round in a clockwise circle.

Great photos Mrs. Davidje, definitely as good, if not better than the old man's. (I've never had any cake so what you've never had you'll never miss !!!!!)
