We met in the yard in the wet, took photo's in the wet and came home in the wet. Despite that the crowds turned out, including the local MP who rolled the first pie decorated with the Union flag. We found a group picknicking in the graveyard in the pouring rain and taking the discomfort away with Champagne. Fig Pie Day is a bit of British eccentricity which we love. There were a couple of engines with new owners, one of them was blowing off a lot but then I suppose the new owner has to learn how to manage an engine as we all did. There was a handful of engines but then it is not a rally but there were other things worth recording.
Many thanks to Mark and his team for a great day out
