Thank you Charles for your lovely comment and great photo. The driver on No.20 that day was myself and I hope your ride was smooth in the Old Saloon! 20 is easily my favourite engine and it is a pleasure that we are able to use it for events....

My planned three days at this gala became one-ish due to a lot of sickness at home, but I'm so glad I managed the visit I did. Said it before, but the ambition of these WSR events under the current team is so impressive. There's so much going on...
