Weather is looking more settled down here, brilliant day yesterday, hot with sunshine. On Friday was able to wash my BMW for the first time in 6 months and found out that it was red !!!

Seriously, I am asking members to support this event, I know most of the engine owners personally and Steve deserves our support as he and his friends have and are putting a lot of effort into the event.

We didnt cut and carry as much as 4 acres, due to the wheat being over ripe and also very brittle, but still did enough to make a nice size rick.Glad to hear that you are bringing the working clothes John, im sure we will all have a chance during the weekend to have a go at either pitching sheafs, rakeing chaff, feeding the baler, riding on the plough or cultivator and then perhapes best of all we could look after the engines !!!! Looking like about 10 engines being around for the weekend.

Steve.
