brianih634 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 The whole weekend really I had a great time at Spalding, meeting lots of felllow ftf members and trawling all the stalls. Finally got to see Leveret farm close up , loved Simon's display aswell, some great equipment on there, and thanks for the tips Simon . Thanks to Marky for the gates also, I'm very pleased with them and sure they will look great when installed on Stuarthill Farm Really pleased to be home now after the long haul up the road today.

The Tractor Twitcher Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Still smiling after a great Sunday out after meeting quite a few FTF members to talk tractors real, model and photography and seeing all their breath taking displays and scratchbuilt models. Pleased to have found room for the mini fleet I bought and i've absolutely no regrets as to the current state of my bank balance. Pleased and more than a little surprised at my parents rather unalarming reaction after they had returned home from visiting my brother in Sheffield to find I'd re-furnitured the living room with empty boxes and a few extra "ornaments." Thankfully when I returned to work today there was no talk of pay cuts or P45s from my boss just action plans in readiness for Easter weekend trade. Despite quite a lethargic start on my part it was good to get stuck in again even if my mind was a little reluctant to leave behind the weekend just gone.

Deere-est Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 The whole weekend from start to finish. The van drove fine, the farm transported fine, I found my camera under the van seat, the resonses the farm got, Traci didn't spend a fortune, I did spend a fortune, meeting overseas visits (some bearing gifts ), Marky's signposts and stiles..... A tiptoptaculous weekend right through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
