That wasn’t all on the menu, sandwiches, scones, and slices were tempting also.

Was it a hair raising rally for Paul Food wasn’t the only Connors, or the Massey Ferguson ‘ingredient’ for the week-end, tractor? locals and visitors with their miniatures, small engines, cars, tractors, trucks, etc., was on the ‘menu’ which were ‘poured’ over by those who displayed, and by those who wanted a look and perhaps remi- nisce, and wish they had one Proud horses pull the wagon and provide too like that. rides for those who don’t want to walk far.

A variation to the ‘menu’ was the Horse drawn wagon, and on Sunday ‘Leigh’s R e p t i l e Show’ held thrills and fascination Miniature engines also featured. for visitors. Then there was the ‘Big Shed’ out the back for a peek at the tram, caravan, car, buggy, farm vehicles, etc.

Gerald Pentreath directs vintage cars Committee members were thrilled, Brereton’s Ford and are most grateful, with the Volunteers and Organisations who came and helped prior to and during the rally. Their efforts and willingness was wonderful.

Although the ground was rather dusty which settled on some of the vehicles, the week-end was still voted a success and visitors were glad they came. Of course Lockington invites them to come again, and at any time, for another course of a ‘meal’ which can be dished up.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

John c3 v 16 & 17

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever be- lieves in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
