It’s with great pleasure that we confirm that the 2012 37th Scottish Transport Extravaganza will go ahead finally this year!! Get the dates in your diaries and keep your eyes peeled for entry forms and further information in the next few weeks! Saturday 7th and Sunday 18th July
A massive range of makes and models spanning over 100 years of motoring history will be on display at Glamis Castle this weekend.
A record number of entries were received by Strathmore Vintage Vehicle Club (SVVC) for the Saturday and Sunday Scottish Transport Extravaganza, which is expected to attract a five-figure crowd.
The vehicles cover all forms of motoring from an 1881 Penny Farthing to a 520bhp Noble Works which was built by Lee Noble and previously owned by TV presenter James May of Top Gear fame.
A Series 1 Land Rover which once belonged to Castle Motors in Forfar – once the town’s biggest – will also be on display after being purchased and preserved by the club.
Visitors will come from across the world to attend the rally which takes in everything from bicycles and cars of every marque to military vehicles and articulated trucks.
Stephen Dear from SVVC said: “This year’s Extravaganza is the 43rd event to be held in the grounds of Glamis Castle and continues to be one of the premier vintage/classic vehicle rallies in Scotland and beyond.
“This year we have a record number of entrants over the weekend with approx 1,500 entries received.
“This year we also have 51 different car clubs covering all makes and interests displaying their vehicles.
“We have approximately 150 mixed traders selling a variety of wares and also a craft marquee.”
The ring entertainment this year will be the Joseph Peace Fire Stunt Spectacular – blending fire stunts with comedy in a fusion of modern circus and pantomime fun.

The greatest mystics have not been heretics but Catholic saints. In them “natural mysticism” which, like “natural religion,” is latent in humanity, and at the certain point of development breaks out in every race, came to itself; and attributing for the first time true and distinct personality to its Object, brought into focus the confused and unconditioned God which Neoplatonism had constructed from the abstract concepts of philosophy blended with the intuitions of Indian ecstatics, and made the basis of its meditations on the Real. It is a truism that the chief claim of Christian philosophy on our respect does not lie in its exclusiveness but in its Catholicity: in the fact that it finds truth in a hundred different systems, accepts and elucidates Greek, Jewish, and Indian thought, fuses them in a coherent theology, and says to speculative thinkers of every time and place, “Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, Him declare I unto you.”

You can see a wisp of forest fire smoke just off the water to the right. A day later this area was closed to prepare for potential forest fire evacuation.

Statue of a city stock exchange floor trader with the artists name on the ID badge. These noisy chaps in bright jackets have now been replaced by computers so they've had to find a proper job ;-). Cannon Street, City of London.
Selling lots of their lovely homemade goods from their narrowboats, nice to see it thriving, who needs internet shopping.

Once home to the world-famous fruit and vegetable market, Covent Garden's Apple Market continues to support market traders, offering a range of unique handmade crafts and goods throughout the week.
In the South Piazza, the Jubilee Market changes its wares daily. On Mondays, the market is dedicated to antiques. From Tuesday to Friday, a general market operates with traders selling clothes and household goods. At weekends, the market offers arts and crafts.
Another of the Dino Traders, this one uses the Pyroraptor from LEGO set #76951, "Pyroraptor & Dilophosaurus Transport"
I was originally going to use both dinos in that set to pull a cart (the previous pic) but the Pyroraptor is significantly bigger than the Dilophosaurus.
Not exactly T-Rex size, and certainly not Kale Scale size, but bigger.
