Merlin with extra fuel.  What else would you use a luggage rack for, but carrying g two sacks of coal.  We were pre-positioning the coal for the first 40 mile stage of a 120 mike road run with my miniature traction engine to the Great Dorset Steam Fair on 19th August. The pub is near Windsor, where we will be stoping overnight. Tim https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/parkinsons-miniaturesteamrun

As a steam enthusiast you might be interested in this I discovered in a local pub car park in Wetherby. Built by a local blacksmith to go down the pub !!!! It was left steaming away so couldn't get any more info.

I must admit, I don’t trust the handbrake much on my 4/4 and usually leave it in gear, opposite to the natural direction of rolling.  Frederick at speed in London. Tim

I had a nice drive to Williams Automobiles this morning, and came back down the M4 with the roaring sound of my new librands exhaust, and shiny new header tank Well done Willliams 👍

Craig, stop tempting me with shiny sparkly things. I love that. Must resist!!! John tmg513, now a "pub landlord" rant. Fed up with your post of foreign parts today I drove around Suffolk to show England can for now match Johnny foreigner parts. It was 30c here today. I took my sea bath on the way back in Felixstowe as one does.
