It was reported by Jan
Goddard, that there has been a "rude
awakening" on a Monday morning this
summer. Initial concern was followed by
laughter and good humour as the danger was
over......
Cows on the rally field -

Amazingly, a heard of cows has broken
through an adjoining fence and had come to
meet the caravanners. Jan called it an
"Early Morning Cabaret" and it was certainly
entertaining !
Many thanks to Jan for quickly grabbing her
mobile phone and taking this picture before
the cows decided to go back to their own
field.
Message from the Rally Sec - Trevor Smith
This year Ken and Jan Beswick announced that
this was the last year that they would be
marshals at the Henham Steam Rally.
This Suffolk Centre rally was revived by Ken
and Jan following a break of a couple of
years and it is well known that it attracts a very large number of vans every
year. The event also moved from Henham, a
few miles up the road to Benacre and then
back to Henham. This added additional effort
when pegging out a new field each year. The
workload is huge for a rally such as this
and we thank Ken and Jan for all their hard
work. Don't worry though, they have
committed to two visits to Clare Priory in
2007 and I am sure we will see them both on
the rally field again soon.
I can also announce that Colin and Jan
Goddard have offered to take on the rally as
main marshal next year with hep from John
and Hazel Head, and Alan and Sue Green. We
wish them every success in 2007.
Many thanks from all the Henham ralliers,
Trev & Sue Smith.
