The venue had to be changed as the old Ijsselhalle is being demolished for housing, I understand that the new venue was already booked for the dates in November but, looking towards 2024 they are looking to revert to the later dates. I am not going this year as I have 2 daughters getting married but I may consider it next year when the wallet has recovered a bit.

Read somewhere that they had sold 140000 tickets over the 4 days Mike... Looks like you had a bit of decent weather though 👍
That's right, 140,000 over the 4 days, all sold out in advance

I was at a golf course in North Wales last Friday and it was like a scene from the 80's. There were half a dozen or so tractors going backwards and forwards carting large round bales of hay in tiny trailers. MF 135 without a cab, IH 784 with a bale spike on the loader, Zetor of some type, didn't get close enough to see the model number but looked to be around 60hp. Same Explorer 80 with a front loader, JD 6400 and 6600 and even a Fordson Major. Not one of the trailers were roped or strapped and the bales were jiggling about on the bumpy road but none came off that I could see.
As well as the tractors there was a classic car road run going through the village but there were so many of them that I didn't really take too much notice

Justy46, was talking to a major seller at the Spalding show who told me that he now sells more Bruder than anything else, he believes that it is accurate enough for the young carpet farmer and cheap enough for them to trash in a year or so

What have you been doing or plan on doing today?

I on the other hand Sean, have been in Northern Ireland again today. There is a tractor around every corner and on every stretch of road. I think that every single tractor in the province was out in the field today trying to get the crop in before it rains again.
I can also assure you that the Irish like their blues, I think around half, if not more, of the tractors that I saw were a shade of blue.
