Robert, yes it was the steam rally last weekend. It was a bit disappointing really. There were only a handful of steam engines in a very large field. There were some small static engines, and some old cars, but it was the larger stuff that I wanted to photograph, and as I say there weren’t many of them.

 

The weather hadn’t helped either, though it wasn’t anywhere near a Glastonbury mud experience.

That's a shame, though I'm quite glad I didn't go now! I went to the Ashley Hall traction engine rally which has a lot of large traction engines plus some smaller machines. The people though have no interest in Joe public and were quite disinterested when we showed an interest.

I got a few good pictures though:
