As Jim Stanley has said some superb photos of a very enjoyable weekend, I certainly agree with him, as a visitor parking with the motorhome in the camping field overlooking the lowloaders on Friday and Sunday evenings there was as usual plenty of engine movements to see, with a level clean and tidy site with plenty of refuse bins regularly emptied, plenty of benches around the ring and food vans and beer tent, very well organised rally indeed, 3 working Rack benches, working Threshing Drum and Stone Crusher, with the low charge for children which probably resulted in the excellent attendance of visitors over the weekend, the best fish and chips I have ever tasted on a rally field and Dr Busker on the Saturday evening, well done to all those involved.
