CROMFORD 43rd STEAM RALLY

On Sunday we went to the 43rd Cromford Steam Rally. There were old cars, old tractors, lorries, caravans, fairground and, of course, traction engines.

ROWSLEY 1940s WEEKEND

We visited Derbyshire again last weekend and on Saturday went to the 1940s event at Rowsley Station. We went on the train to Matlock and then went back to Rowsley where we were entertained, 1940s style, by various entertainers and also watched a 1940s style fashion show.
