Default Wiltshire Steam and Vintage rally 2008

I had a brilliant day out today probably the best rally ive been to this year it was a wonderful setting. There was only one problem there was only 10 engines but apart from that it was brilliant, for those who went i managed to climb the big hill after ten minutes but well worth the views. The ploughings boys from Bristol were hard at work all day and looked like they were having fun and The Philadelphia looked the best ive seen it next to the organ in the sunshine all day. those who are near the tomo it well worth a visit and i saw at least one TT today with Burrell 3126 Tim Mayhew but did not get a chance to talk. i will post some pics once uploaded wont be long

cheers Robin

If they asked the local engines there would be more than 10 there - they seem to prefer to get engines from out of the area.
