No probs, I heard your voice on the vid and thought "Ayup!!"

I'll recognise that "Yeah" anywhere

Sort of a "Yeer"

a wonderful day and great displays. liz and i tried our new position in the shed . this worked a treat with lots of kids stopping and watching. liz took some of her fairground and i took the te s and pulled stumps all day. lol what a crowd, we hardly had time to grab a bite to eat. i totally forgot to take pics till just before we left. i did manage to inspect everyones displays which were outstanding.the shed was well pleased as donations were up

a spotter for another steam event in july at another venue has invited the local members to attend. i could not believe the amount of girls and woman who were intrigued by liz s display. normally they tend to stand back and wait for the boys but lizs theory worked a treat. (that is to have something for the girls as well as the boys at these events) one 16 yr old girl spoke for ages to liz, then came back with 5 of her girl friends just to see the fairgrounds.

(its a good job we left our sons at home lol.here is a pic of liz showing her rides to a young girl.
