Ah yea those pics will come soon enough as that’s when the farm got its first update

Thanks it has grown slightly since those pics were taken but I’ll post that on here in dew corse.

Grove farm is based in Somerset. loosely based on grove farm in Blackwell in fact, although some buildings have been cut out or altered to fit within the space and work as a model farm. so it started out when Reg gray built the dairy section with the cubicles on in 2020 the parlour was latter added the following year. Then after one of my many visits to him I prompted him to build the machine shed and beef shed section. This was all done and ready to show for the return of toytrac in 2022. I then took ownership of the farm after toytrac as Reg didn’t have the space to continue building the rest of the farm, and between us are currently working on more sections of it.

Similar story for me Jack, although we’ve always stayed over night. It’s not a cheep day out by no means. I’d save ur pennies for toytrac ha ha!

How it should be diorama tables were free to exhibitors at Carlisle in November so no not all shows charge over here.

No I won’t be displaying there anymore. the price of tables is just to much I’m all for supporting the show with a small entry fee, but for 6 tables to put my farm on is £37! I spend enough money building them and then haul it across country at my expense, I don’t earn nothing for being there. but yet the show benefits with my display being there. no displays means no show it will become a shop that you have to pay to enter.

I believe it’s the Canns display the 2 u didn’t know the name of James. Could be wrong but I’m sure that’s there name on the tables at toytrac

Yes booked tables back in mid February for displaying at this one. And looking forward to being back in the proper show Environment.

Dose anyone know if there’s any dioramas going ? Or is it all going to be solely all traders?

Considering it so watch this space 😉

I won’t repeat myself, but my self and a lot of peaple would surely agree. all subscriptions should have been refunded as soon as the mag stoped! And definitely before it was sold off to a new company.

A delivery of firtalizer turned up yesterday at lower manor farm. ready for the season ahead.

Thank you. The gray fergy with loader is a new addition as an exdemo model. And the new fordson is a second had buy. The other new tractors u see is a combination of local naybours out to help us.

The sleepers are made by jewela if that’s how u spell it ha ha! and come as they are iv just fitted them between sleepers. You can get them from HLT.

Pleased to here it bud and yes all being well it should make a tip to Penrith.

A few more pics of lower manor farm at Warwickshire show at the weekend.

We managed to catch the boar this morning after he escaped a left open gate now sending him to his own pen.

And so we’re clear the exhaust is staying silver who doesn’t love a chrome pipe on a tractor. even if it is 1968. I’m not very knowledgable on the time period me a zac are doing and one of the reasons I got zac onboard was his knowledge in older merchineary. but I thought it would be a fun challenge and a learning cerve at the same time.

What did u use to weather your wheels Paul? It looks spot on.

That's a fine looking trailer there Paul.

Ah I c ok thankyou, I wasnt sure if It was a new thing I hadn't herd of. Is it hydronicly primed or manual?

Looking through the up dates I noticed your pump is on the front linkage when your doing the anbilical work. I didn't realise they made a pump that worked off a front linkage. What make is it?. Grate up dates tho.
