I hope Mid Hants Gala is good. I lived fairly close to it for 5 years; and I was a regular visitor to it.
If you're in a car, there are a couple of photogenic locations on the Ropley to Medstead road; and also by the churchyard overlooking Alresford station (5 mins walk.from the station).
And a 50008 + 50021 to Eastleigh after the Gala had ended, my chance to see it now or probably never againCouple of unusual workings past Havant, mid today and mid Friday:
Mid-Thursday: 50008 + 50021 + 4TC Eastleigh to Alton (for gala):

A post dedicated to our train-mad, loyal protector. Failing body and dementia are trumping the medication - yet he still enjoys his favourite game: spinning around at passing Electrostars. Some drivers even toot back at the surreal spectacle. :) He's very selective: SWR Desiros and Sheds are...www.railforums.co.uk
Yes, if this darned rain eases up, I'll try a shot of their return.

Paddington to Eastleigh Works. Was pathed as departmental (class 5) service. First IET I've seen in south Hampshire*.
I'm still trying to find out which unit - it sped past faster than I could read - and the purpose of the working today.
* YouTube footage exists of GWR 802003 at Eastleigh (video added 27-June 2022), but the clip doesn't give any details.
