Default latest outing and engine covers on

Took the carrier out to the lowestoft veterans day at the weekend, alot of interest in the carrier among the veterans.

Also managed to get the engine covers in place, next job is the 2pdr shell racks.

Kevin.

HI Kevin,
Let me know next few shows you are going to, i think we need to have a trundle out with the 2 carriers some where. I have Puddle jumper out alot this year covered about 200 miles so far, even did a prom night on friday. look like you were parked with David and Bill at lowestoft. Are you bringing it down to beltring? I will be there with mine.
Catch you later
Shaun

Hi Shaun, I will be taking the carrier to Henham steam rally but thats not until september, (18th & 19th). I want to take it down to lowestoft air show (12th & 13th august), need to contact waveny council first to arrange.

I will be down the war and peace show for a day trip on the friday 23rd july, would love to take the carrier there for the week but have to work that weekend.

If you know of any other events local to us in the meantime let me know, dont know if 'power of the past' is running this year, dont mind driving it 3 or 4 miles but the tracks abit wornout.

Kevin.
