7980 at Quexpo 11th July 2010
This was my first visit to this event for about 25 years! We decided to attend after speaking to many of the people at Preston Steam Rally who reccommended it to us. The show was very quiet (probably not helped by the heat) but also rather good too with nearby Quex House open as well. The night before I had collected 7980 from the yard and stabled her in Thanet. On the morning of the 11th we headed over to Birchington (via Ramsgate to pick up two little friends!). Two other vehicles soon joined us - RT4139 and MFN888, an ex East Kent Guy Arab. 7980 went into the ring during the Commercial Vehicle Parade and attracted a lot of attention too. This is ne show we will be doing again, with any luck for the whole weekend.
