Default Hollowell.

First time i have been to this Rally and considering there was no engine movement due to the state of the ground i think the organisers put on an excellent show , well done.
For those who had their engines on their transporters ,you could have taken the tarp's off so the public could have seen them.

Wow Dorothy on a low loader - that is not a very frequent happening these days.
Certainly looks very wet there.

Interesting load securing on the 2nd picture. I should want to see a bit more than that if it were my engine sat on there.

I enjoyed the rally today, despite the conditions. It was a pleasure to meet Paxman Man for the first time (and Avis of course) ably assisted by a certain web-master actually getting his hands dirty!

Any offers of captions for this one? . . .
