Wonderful day, hot but not oppressively so and no sign of the threatened thunder storms by the time we left at twoish.



Usual fine turn out of engines with emphasis on the biggies - seven in evidence this year. Spotted P.T-E but he appeared to have succumbed to the fumes from his Petter and was unresponsive ;-) Bought several 'useful' items from stalls and exhibitors, didn't take many pics but I think you might like the ones I have just posted on webshots (last five in 'Infernal Combustion' album).


Ouch! That's a brute! I take it from the lack of cooling it only ran for short bursts (or is it air-cooled?)
