A most excellent day was had by all and it was good to get a way from the usual NWAG screams and cries of whoa and no no no no no.
Many thanks to John and Pauline for for inviting us and keeping us well filled with tea/coffee and food despite the (at times) torrential rain.
Without further ado the piccies.

The Archangel Jack driver in his natural enviroment
Sat on the main running line holding everyone else up.
In reality no one was held up and the Jack behaved itself impeccably.
