'Twas the Day before Stoneleigh (again)..........
1st April 2011

The star of the Show arrived at half-past nine in the morning this year............

............in plenty of time to get unloaded............

............... whilst tables and chairs were being unloaded................

............ by the demountable fork lift.

John Orson & Bob Newton trying to work out what goes where!

all ready to roll..................

.

"Do you think we'll have to push it??"
(L to R - Bob Newton, Ian Shields and John Orson)

The loco being lowered gently by the tractor unit....................

PUSH, Bob!!

With a little more help to get it over the poor joints............

....... it made it in!

"Quick - dismantle the ramp.............."

................ "and start polishing!"

William and Marguerite discussing something or other with new Layouts Co-Ordinator Gerv Wright.

It's useful to have a grown-up son - Richard & Jack Longley putting the Brandbright stand up.

Derek Wiggins...................

........... furiously trying to get all the racking up before people start bringing their stuff!

I suppose SOMEBODY had to do it...........

.

Squires Tools - all done and dust-sheeted.

On Saturday morning, a cheerful greeting from a pair of chilled-out Stewards...........

"I REALLY should've remembered to bring back the trophy I won last year, AND I should have filled in my MOTY form before this!"
