I'm afraid I don't know either Bob or Leigh.
You missed a good day. The highlight for me was when we were buzzed a
couple of times by a spitfire. I just love the sound of a Merlin Engine!
A couple of events that might be worth a trip down from Brum are the
Fairford Traction Engine Rally which is next weekend and there's also a
military weekend at the Swindon and Cricklade railway on September 12th
and 13th.
Cheers
Mark
