I got there at 8.30 for an early start and half the car park was full !!  Plenty of people visiting.

I was after some cheap donor tractors and managed to track down an MF8260 for £30🙂 and the same guy was also giving away a new UH Deutz Fahr 8280 for £45 total bargains!!

So went to see Barry on the Udimore Stand and in the middle of the stand there were a pair of Ritchie 48 bale transporters , just started to have a look and in reaches Barry to take 1 out and wrap it up . now  at sometime in the late 70's I remember going to the Royal Show with Dad and visiting the Ritchie stand  to see this new method of transporting bales  ,  1/2 hour later a deal was done for the show machine , its serial number was 101 and they said it was the first one for sale and we would be then receiving it when they pack the stand up , quite handy when you lived just down the road from Stoneleigh . So I told Barry this little story and he told me that he had better wrap it up then , I told him that being a mere peasant I was only having a look but if it was still there when I walked around again then it was meant to be ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Then a bit later I found a Ford 550 in a big line of pre loved toys , we ran a 550 as our main loader for a fair few years in the 80's so this had to gp home

that will be pete the guy who did them for the show, not sure if its unfair, he prob wont have made a huge amount on each one he did for them anyway, so why not make a bit of profit, as we always say “you don't have to buy “

It has sold already, so someone was happy to pay it. Happens with all show models Pete does he always puts one on eBay himself, they always sell within the first day, wouldn't imagine he's making a fortune on it

I noticed earlier that Pete and Sharon have stopped selling their decals and accessories, Baz at Udimore is handleing them now.

Regards

Joe.
