We had a great weekend, one of the best rallies we have been to for a while. Good to see an absense of yellow jackets and orange fencing. Just the right atmosphere for an enjoyable weekend, the good weather helped.

Big thanks to Ian, Graham and the rest of the Dial Post committee.

Also a big thanks to Nial Gough for lending Britannia to Hairy Monster and I for the pub run on Saturday evening. Very much appreciated. Good luck with the run to Cornwall.

Glad you had a good time. A few more pictures. It was nice to see a row of living vans behind the engines instead of the usual mish-mash of caravans, motor homes, cars gazebos etc etc.

Just a quick note to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported us at Dial Post this year. We were incredibly lucky with the weather and this made up for last years torrential rain! Thanks to Bob for the cracking photos, (are you sure thats really our show?!?). And also thanks to all of you who have posted such great feedback, hopefully this will encourage even more people to come next year.
Anyone else like the Red Arrows flying over on the Sunday?!

Totally agree with all the other comments one of the best organised rallies I've been to in years. Gave my thanks to one of the committee members on the day and will add it here superb will definitely be attending again next year. As a keen photographer the layout was good and not tightly packed.

Well done to all involved in the organisation, here's to next year
