You know when you see the pictures online of the long slim legs pointing out over the empty beach to the turquoise sea beyond ?

This was the view from Denny's tent at Frome on Saturday :wink: :wink: :

We got there at around 8AM on Saturday, and it rained from 10AM till 9AM the following morning, whereupon the organizers did the honorable thing and cancelled the show :( :( :(

Even sitting right at the back of the tent, my jeans were soaked through to the knees.

I think we saw about 20 people pass the tent during the time we were there, and they were probably all exhibitors as well.

Can't win them all I suppose :roll: :roll:

Apologies to Steve and Fiona, for dragging them up the M4 in such horrible weather, but at least they managed to abort and divert to see family instead :lol: :lol:

Sounds about right. Sunday afternoon at home was glorious - cold but clear blue skies and lots of sun :roll: :roll:

Good for drying though :lol: :lol:

Just north of Frome at Thornbury the day was sunny and warm. We did unload the Van and the Cromwell was used to train/acclimatise our friend's small flock of sheep to the sight and sound of model tanks. So not a total loss of a day!

Is that the future of RC tanks - whistle control ?
