Gentlemen,

Which of you Inteligencia is going to the 1000 engine rally.

Martin P

I shall be there. Looking forward to what is always an excellent weekend.

Gentlemen,

Well we are here, stopped on route, Nottinghamshire, to collect from Jim Perkins a Petter Diesel Air Cooled test engine which via Astle Park is going to IF. We then carried onto the 1000 Engine site in the pouring rain to find very wet conditions underfoot, overfoot, infoot. You name it the water is everywhere, our trailer tent is erected and we are dry fed and watered, hoping for a better day tomorrow. I wish. All the usual crew are here so plenty to chat to and hopefully lots to look at.
Will drip sorry drop a few more lines tomorrow.

Martin P

Well I wish I could be there no mater the weather! sadly Im working 7 days shifts.....

Cheers Steve

Gentlemen,

All in all Saturday turned out to be not to bad a day, a couple of short sharp showers and a lot of wind but otherwise a good day Jon Rochead turned up for the day after ringing me about conditions, lots to see until I tripped over my walking stick and buggered my leg again. Will have a go at taking some pictures tomorrow to put up.

Great Day out yesterday at the 1000 engines all be it a short visit. Nice to see a good I.F. turn out and a chance catch up with every one. Rob has done a great job of The I.F. "marquee".

Some nice pics there gents, thank you.

Looks like we had better weather in Wales Paid a surprise visit on Paul and Hazel which didnt quite go off quite as planned Hope you made it to your digs Paul and fitted all your visits in

Numpty as usual.

Mark,

Numpty by name Numpty by nature then we at Astle Park did get word that Paul and Hazel were running late because of some late arrivals.

Jon,

A nice little video, nice to see my "A" running surprisingly untroubled, its taking a little of my time to get use to its quirks.

Martin P

Thanks for the pictures and video, nice selection of stuff there.

Cheers Steve
