Any Mebos going to Onslow Park Steam Rally?
I have heard that there will be a lot of Sentinel steam lorries chuffing around this year! |

The Caravan is sitting outside Miles' place and I go down there tomorrow night so that we can get on site early Wednesday to start organising trailer etc movements ready for the Big One next week.

Time goes by fast.
Father and I will be heading back to Onslow Park rally, just after our visit to GDSF this year.
All of course, being done in reverse order this year!
Eric, will you be back at GDSF with the Scammell this year?

Returned to Onslow Park steam rally this year, on the bank holiday Monday, after GDSF.
The weather was great, warm and sunny.
Father and I managed to walk around the entire site, or most of it.
Spent a lot of time around the working arenas, wood sawing, stone breaking.
I saw a very nice Foden diesel timber tractor, in the livery of T. T. Boughton.
I have seen photos of this vehicle but I have never seen the actual vehicle before in real life.
Also spent a lot of time around the old time funfair and the steam grand parade in the arena.
Spent some time at various fair organs, before leaving.
The layout at Onslow Park makes for some interesting photos and good vantage points.
Every corner that you go around at Onslow Park, reveals something new.
I was at the top of the hill this year, or one of the hills, overlooking the main arena, got some nice photos from there.
