This year was the 40th anniversary of the Great Dorset Steam Fair and it was the first time that we had to queue for more than 5 minutes.
While queueing (I had to look this word up, and this is really how you spell it according to Wikipedia), these planes flew over. I believe the little planes are Spitfires, but I have no idea what the big plane is. Anybody got any idea?
Our location on the campsite was a lot closer to the fair than last year.
The campsite in the other direction with the carpark for day-visitors on the left. The campsite continues to the right about 20 times the size you can see on the picture.
We met up with our friend Richard Cole, who restores vintage tractors to it's original condition. Here he is with one of his show models (the tractor, not Clarkie). He deals in Fordson Tractors Parts & Spares Restoration & Sales and he can be found here: Cotswold Vintage Tractors.
