BC Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 Shame you won't make it this year Joe but on a positive note that gives you more than a year to get your display ready for 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Joe. As Bill says a shame you'll not be there this year Joe .... but hell if you've now 14 months to get your display ready there could almost be a field big enough to show off your Holmer spreaders after the maize harvest for your AD plant or even work on a display that's a couple of tables apart.... I'm sure with co-operative neighbours they'd let you put a road in up the front of their display to get the transport side of things into perspective between field and farm ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Received my entry form today so given the featured show tractor this year is International Harvester and Farmall I think I'll take along some of my 1/16 scale SpecCast Farmall Cubs since that will be an easier option than pulling down a real Farmall ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Two and a half week to go, really looking forward to the trip up to the show for a catch up with the folk we know and some we don't Hope to get display sorted and packed this weekend.... otherwise it might end up a bit last minute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Well it not be long to getting loaded up for heading off up the road, but first a spot of breakfast and a few odd jobs to do before our mid morning departure, Seems strange being on the Forum at this time of day on a Friday..... usually grafting by now Looking forward to 4 days off work though having prepped 5 chassis up in the last 16 days... and what better way to unwind with a weekend away at a show Hope to catch up with some of you over the weekend and safe trips to those who are travelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted September 19, 2015 Author Share Posted September 19, 2015 Not long now until the show opens. Shame Kenny and Shirley will not be there this year to keep an eye on the model exhibitors and the antics they will no doubt get up to....however I'm sure we will all be thinking about them and they will be back next year.

Valley Axe Man Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 No worries Kev bud, it great to see you back on the show circuit again, and good to see you and Stuart are still as mad as a box o frogs!! It was a good weekend all round, but not the same without the two special people that bring so much to this show, A big GET WELL SOON to Kenny Beeton, both you and Shirley were missed greatly by many with your wit, wisdom and banter, but roll on to a return to the shows and many more displays in the future , Though I reckon you'd have both laughed on Friday as I tried to get the tables sorted.... You've got that down to a fine art Kenny and I reckon I've a bit to go yet to be up to your level..... Was great to catch up with so many of our friends from up north, and 3 good friends that made the trip from Northern Ireland, your a keen bunch of lads, Hope young Rob turns out as grand a bloke as his dad Ivan, Nice to welcome a few first time exhibitors to the show too, Well done to both Matthew Dewhurst and Damian Hampson for taking the trophies in the Junior and Senior model displays catagories, According to Rob and Mary the voting was very close this year and the standards of the displays were high, again that in itself would have made Kenny and Shirley smile. Last but not least, Thanks to all those that helped out with lending a hand during the setting up and breaking down of the show, your help was and is really appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dm434 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Had a good day at the show yesterday. Took some of my nash models up to display n added a puma cvx 230 from g&m to my collection . Good to catch up wi my Lancashire friends too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 My Mum would like to say..... A good show this year, I took along my 32nd scale Britain's based woodland diorama, that quite a few comments were made at why the famous Lanark courting couple weren't in there?? Thank you to everybody for pulling together and making Kenny and Shirley proud, like you I missed them at the show this weekend too, especially my sparring partner KB. Hope the cake was up to my usual standards, (sorry Brian.... we forgot to save you some, but did miss you and the wee lad Mark too) good to see some more new exhibitors, and lets hope there are a few more for next year. Was good to see Big Dave, Ivan and the lads turn up, was abit last minute but we had a good catch up and tried to organise another trip for them in the near future. Looking forward to seeing most of you again at Penrith Lynn x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
