This evening, I have started work on our 1949 Allis Chalmbers B. For the time being, the plan is to just get her running and out on to the rally field as quick as possible - she’s very low down on the full restoration list.

Tonight, the plus were removed and engine turned over to check for a spark….. a ruddy big beautiful spark :) so that’s good news. Next step, clean the fuel system.

Day one of Operation Market Harborough, the UKs finest display of wartime and post wartime military vehicles! This will be the first time we have attended, and first impressions…. Wow! Just wow!

Here we have my old mate, Josh Benthams beautiful GMC military truck, and of course, Uncle Mather couldn’t resist bringing his bright red tractor - perfectly camouflaged amongst the military green….. 😂😂😂

I can already tell this is going to be a fantastic weekend!

Welland 2026…. Your 60th birthday this year, I really hope I am there for your 90th

Such an incredible weekend, I’ve never experienced a show like it. So much to see and do! I’ll be coughing up soot for weeks.

Thank you to the organisers, volunteers, and exhibitors for showing exactly how a show should be run. Welland Steam rally has well and truly concreted itself on to the Vintage Earl Collection rally calendar.

The Welland play pen! I was mesmerised by this on my last visit three years ago. I can’t wait to see it once again, and to show my Dad. Incredible scenes.
