    I'm thinking about going there tomorrow, especially as the weather looks fine. Far too many options to choose from tomorrow! NVR, MHR, Swanage, Tanfield. Nope, Kirklees I think!

    Well it was a great weekend, especially cabbing Synolda for two trips up the valley. A marvellous old engine. Thanks, all.

    Cheers,

    Some of my photos from the Saturday of the gala. Only just round to sorting them out. Next time I go I'll try to remember to charge the camera battery beforehand....!

    Nope that's not me. I'm about 40 years younger than him! I think he was just to my right though.
