Default Bon-Fire-Bar 2011

Many thanks to The Firebar family for the invitation. What a great day relaxing day in the company of engines and engine men and women. We went on a ride to a pub which had burnt down long ago and enjoyed the experience. We put more faces to TT names and saw how close Joe was to finishing his restoration. We also went a little way in helping Blackjack to overcome his aversion to Foden's - I hope the therapy helped.

Easy to miss off when they are not Foden's eh David? Looks like it was a good day, was it a stray spark that caused the pub's demise?
