Tellarian Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 If Marky was a real man he'd overnight and do the Heddington & Stockley Rally on the Sunday... http://www.heddingtonandstockley.co.uk/steamrally/index.html Lots of local metal... might even buy him a Sherbert Fizz..

Lord Ferguson Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 Sherbert Fizz hey :P - I could be tempted Steve :D Flipping hec... look at the boots on that poor little 135 :D - 625 combine back wheels by the looks of them :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Interested Spectator Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 That's some big old wheels on that 135 !! After about four years of trying will, hopefully, actually make it there this year. Being retired has its benefits ! Defiantly the place to be tommarrow....be there!!......... or be somewhere else ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leakeyvale Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 What a pain -if I had known a week earlier I would have gone too and overnighted somewhere but it is too far to do in one day and back as I have no dog-sitter. I would not take her with me in this heat. Get some good pics Marky - I am relying on you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 a good day at coldridge good to meet tim & sean although a good rain shower did nothing to keep the hot muugyness away , i only took a few pictures & left the rest to marky(david bailey) ferguson would just like to thank mark for stopping by to give me a lift there & back, much appreciated mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Lovely day out yet again despite the sharp shower that Sean mentioned. Several new additions to look over plus some that had been brought in for the day such as the very impressive 1505 and 165 that came up from Cornwall. Absoluteley heaving with people just after mid-day, even detected some foreign accents. Food was good and very good price as well. Ice cream van did a roaring trade and he was charging reasonable as well. Farmer Ed with his models did very well and Colin Perryman with his tractor parts was run off his feet. Nice to see you there again Sean and Mark and for those that did not or could not go, book next year now while its still fresh in the mind.

An Interested Spectator Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Agree totally, Really good day out, like being a kid in a sweet shop ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 It was brilliant.... I'll be uploading my pics as soon as I can. I managed to start the day with a full tank of fuel... filled the 'black hole' in the back 3 more times on the day... but it was well worth it for the experience. I've told mrs F that we are taking Mavis next time and stsaying overnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
