Hollycombe Fair Weekend
We have had a couple of busy weeks with our engines, last weekend (23rd/24th July) we were at Hollycombe Steam Collection in Liphook Hampshire for there Fairground weekend, attending with the Burrell Showmans Lady Pride of England. Then the weekend just gone (30th/31stJuly) we attended a small charity event held in Kingsley near Bordon Hamphire with Victoria. Sadly I didn't take many pictures at Kingsley event but plenty at Hollycombe, hope you enjoy this weeks collection.

Looking good
Both engine and ride looks great, this has to be one of my favourite rides, the art work is wonderful and a great ride to go on.

The wall of Death
Here is The Wall of Death with local man David Weeks encouraging people to come and take a look at the stunts that can be done on the wall with the bikes. Well worth a visit to although sometimes it does make you hold your breath...

Mother and baby
On the shed next to where we were sitting with Lady there was this lovely mother and baby peacock... So cute.
Jack and the Scammell
These next two pictures was taken at The Kingsley rally we attended this weekend with Victoria and here you can see Jack in a 1/5th scale Scammel. It belongs to a gent who let Jack drive it around the show ground on Sunday and Jack had a great time so thankyou Mick.
Victoria on the low loader
After a fab weekend Victoria and wagon are off to Sussex on the back of a low loader where we will be attending Amberley Working Museums Fair Ground event this weekend 6/7th Aug.
We always steam Victoria to all events we go to, infact this is the first time we have been carried to an event in the 9 years we have owned her, we just didn't have enough time for us to steam there. Something called WORK gets in the way of our fun!!!
