It was a good rally and the weather was dry (and very hot). Some of the usual visitors were absent - it seems many of the Vintage crowd were at Wartime In The Vale instead.

I was also surprised to see those two Geloso's within 20 yards of each other. One needed a full restoration, but didn't sell at £30.

I saw one forum member collect a DST100 receiver. This was a serious rarity as it still had all original components under the chassis, and an Army identification plate instead of the usual two serial number plates with the mysterious manufacturers' codes. I hope he has a well reinforced shelf, and a chain hoist to lift it up there...
