Tractorman810 Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 Its a shame its so far and expensive for you guys to get over paul as it would be a pleasure to meet you and see some of your work in the flesh mate ,not just you mind a lot more of our euro members Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I spotted your 3050 on Tris' layout, looked awesome in the flesh Mark. Good to see the usuals, Andy, Hobbit, Simon, Sean, Barry [why do I only ever buy Massey's off you Not a word Ferguson !! :D ], aforementioned Marky, Marcus, Mark, Mandy, Jez [again Hope Simon looks after those buildings mate, they looked a picture] and really nice to meet JCB Bloke & Adam [shame about the hat mate but no doubt your new 1004 will straighten you out chap ] Paul, thanks for the TM bits, that Hydro is going to be another stunner. And to everyone else I didn't meet, sorry I didn't get to speak to you, if you didn't know who I was at the time when I tell you I was the one chasing the raging 2 year old around the pavillion the penny will likely drop!! Had a good day, didn't overspend but did manage to get some parts and scratch building gear this time around, not like Spalding where I got dazzled by all the shiny boxes. Bought a set of repro parts for my old 7710 to rebuild it as a 7610 - cab, floorpan, bonnet, grille, decal & a Siku hitch. Bill, not a vast amount of old stuff, few straw boxes around but nothing like Spalding.... no doubt Marky's photos will give you a good idea of what was there. Most interesting thing I saw, in terms of obscurity rather than model quality, was a Siku set with the old JD [Renault Ceres] and a few random implements in a big box for 40 quid, think it may have been on Martin Reeve's table...

MJB1 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 well it has to be said , yet another great turn out for toy-trac , the wincanton site really lends itself to the event well done to all involved in making it happen . good to see the regulars ,sean, marky, tris, jez,barry, dan, sean , mark , mark,mandy, steve ,nigel,simon,andy,graham & sharon ,peter,paul & marysue & some not so familliar faces , nathan,andy,cmb, adam . & the ususal people that come up to me & say hello marcus , carry on a conversation & unfortunately i have no idea who they are but all being said a good turn out by the FTF members ,an event well worth supporting . the displays were done to a very high standard , which is getting to be very promising for the attraction of new members, the FTF table ws well staffed & full from end to end . maybe next year the show should be called , grahams display show , as it's the first thing you see when you walk through the door ! it's huge , not so much a display more of a regional attraction ! well done to all ,roll on next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIMON. Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Is there a photographic record of this remarkable, and possibly life changing event that Marky has experienced No sadly not but its pictured in my head but i've given the tractor a good scrub and hosed it down to get rid of any negative Massey vibes ;) :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Just a quick note to say thanks to everyone that I had a chat with down at Toytrac :) Both myself and Maisie had a cracking time, I had a very good day sales way but it was also a very enjoyable day with everyone seeming to be in good spirits.For me Toytrac makes what I do all worthwhile, taking Maisie with me gives me some quality time with her and some of my fellow members were very kind to her (you know who you are) so all the best and roll on next year :) :) :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
