Village rally
Some of the shows and rallies here in England were abandoned last year and this year too. However, the small 'Village' shows are going ahead and there's usually a military contingent there as well as farm tractors and steam rollers.
i went along to one show about 25 miles away to see what vehicles turned up The show was held on a couple of fields belonging to a local farmer\\ and although Chipping village is tiny, the show was well-promoted and very well organised.
Here's some of the vehicles I spotted as I walked around.
I'll upload a few more shortly.

Re: Village rally
Nice, do you have any info on the Tank in the 2nd and 3rd photos, it's unusual to have the drive sprocket at the front.

Re: Village rally
Not unusual for a Chaffee.
Re: Village rally
Looks like a great show. Great to see you out and about!
Re: Village rally
The Sherman also had the front drive but that is not the profile of a Sherman, More like a Patton. But looking closely it does appear to be a Chaffee.
I am guessing that in the UK you would have to be independently wealthy not only to own the tank but just to feed the damn thing!!!!! I know in England they love to show off these things and drive them around.

Re: Village rally
That's correct, it's a Chaffee M24 light tank.
German Tiger and Panther also had the front drive.
