BC Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Ok folks a PM from Mart adds another guest so we are now up to 18 visitors. Still 2 free spaces if anyone is still interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 Spreadsheet updated as a result of a PM from Andy Ingram. Shifts TractorTam aka Stevie Fraser from the possible column to the members column. So we have 8 members and 10 guests so there are still a possible 2 places left for the event which is less than three weeks away now. Now I know Jim has a few real County tractors but I don't know if these are kept at the factory or not. I'm tempted to ask Mandy when I email her with final numbers a week before the event if it would be possible to see the County's as well if they are stored at the factory of course. Is anyone else interested in seeing the County's \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 Well folks Mandy beat me to it and emailed me this afternoon about final numbers. I was going to email her tomorrow a week before as promised but I have said there should be 20 of us there at 7.15pm next Thursday. If anyone can't make it please call me on my mobile as per the PM I sent you since I understand the Stewart's lay on teas and coffees and something to eat. If they do I hope they have a charity box so we can throw something in as a thank you for taking the time to shows us the way they make those excellent looking trailers On a downside we won't see Jim's County's they are stored at home and not at the factory :( Never mind Dode aka toyboy is taking his 1/32 Stewart trailer build and well I will maybe look up to the loft and see if I can take a Britain's County along for the photoshoot ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Only 5 sleeps away to the visit now folks ;) In addition to Dode bringing his Stewart trailer Big A aka Andy Ingram said he could bring along some of his Stewart's scratch built ones We won't see Jim's real County's so well I may take a County or two or some Big Blue's to hitch up to Dode's or Andy's trailers just for a photo shoot \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe next year I will get to use one .. .. hi tris your mate wont be disapointed with the stewart trailer, the farm where i garaged my ice cream van and helped out at the busy times had 5 stewart grain trailers and 2 tri axle low loaders , which were all built the year of foot and mouth and are still going strong with no repairs apart from the usual bulbs etc very strong and high quality builds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
