Where are the 33's? I can only see 31's.

As a grand finale are we going to see everything all together on the layout on the last day? 

Jack, you have blown my plans! Now what am I going to do?

Especially for you Bob! Apologies if they are slightly out of focus, since it's late and I didn't set up the tripod, hence no depth of field. Also the Launceston has it's tender sitting less than true. Wouldn't win me a prize from Dave Bailey, but hopefully enough to keep you lot entertained
