Steam engine

We were at Stokesley Agricultural show and they always have this beauty parked up not far from the cattle lines. We were actually showing cattle yesterday which was good as we haven't managed to show any so far this year.
This is a handsome beast. Always full of admiration for the people who maintain these - what a labour of love it must be but they look magnificent. Good that they have chance to show them off.

Hope showing your cattle went well.

@flowerfairyann @happypat @stiggle @memoriesbydawn @snowy @gijsje @hermann @leestevo Thank you all for your comments. We did quite well with our cattle getting a first, 2 seconds and a third. Considering it was their first outing we were very happy.
