Had a great time just chilling out this weekend. Weather wasn't so hot, particularly today and both vehicles and traders seemed a bit lacking but the good company made up for it!! Seeing the Dakota do a fly past was worth the trip in itself :-)

 

Only downer was Robs announcement on Sat night that, due to differences between himself and the management, there if there is a show next year it won't be involving him. I have to say - if it doesnt involve Rob it doesn't involve me!!!

 

As Stuart says - we got about 4 miles from home at the Fort when the red coolant light comae on again in the Stalwarts cab - fortunately by a lay-bye and apparently we dumped a load of coolant out of the bilge drains.... Refilling the radiator got us back to the Fort and I'm hoping - with everything crossed - that it's just a case of the new belts stretching and slipping, needing retensioning again, as this was the forst time we've done a sustained run at rpm;s in excess of 3,500!!!!
