      My boys thought the Tonkas were noisy... then the Vulcan went by, pulled up and opened up the taps. My youngest laughed saying that his chest shook and his feet trembled... my eldest just said... ok dad, you were right - it was loud... with a big grin on his face. It was worth the day out just for that alone! ;-) - Yesterday at shoreham.
