Steam Rally

I always miss the Steam Rally, which is held just over the river at the top of the hill at Boatside Farm, because I work on Sundays. So this year I walked over on Saturday afternoon to see them setting up. A few traction engines had arrived already....


And there were caravans where people were staying overnight, and bits of the fun fair laid out ready to be assembled.

And this afternoon, there was the sound of a loud engine overhead, and a little biplane came into view, doing aerobatics! It's just a pity that the tree at the front of the Cinema Bookshop was in the way of some of it.

And this evening, a loud clanking on the road heralded a traction engine going home after the event, going down the hill.
