Are you going Ian ??

[V8Ian]

Yeah probably, Jerry. I think I'll take the Land Rover this time. I rode the 'Wing last time.
Hopefully we'll not be locked down.
If you ask Steve nicely, he may follow you there and back, with a tow rope. [tonguewink]

Geez Wayne, you needed to start getting ready last weekend. I hope Mrs 1950 doesn't claim the space, while you're at the show.[bigsad][wink11]

That doesn't look like your humble abode, more like the bakery that doesn't have chocolate eclairs. [bigsad]

I have moved some or her stuff up onto the mezzanine floor & trailer has been moved forward to allow me to stack rest neatly behind trailer . She won't venture out onto the garage , when she wants anything she asks me to get it . I also had a bit of a cull while I was at it she will never know .

Until that day she says "I know I have some ?????? in the garage, could get it for me please?" :eek2:

[V8Ian]

Where are you all? Following Jerry? [bighmmm]

[Saitch]

As of 0730 today, it would seem that I'm not going to make it.[bigsad]

"Trouble at Mill". :rolleyes:

[RANDLOVER]

"Trouble at Mill". :rolleyes:

The only Mill trouble that should keep one away from such an event is at a Brewer's Mill, unless you mean MIL (Mother In Law). Unfortunately I wasn't able to attend due to work commitments, but I'm sure someone will put some pics up soon so we can enjoy it vicariously.

Sorry, I took no photos. It was good to see faces, old and new, particularly Glen and Patsy, who I haven't seen for far too long. It was also good to meet d2dave, on the way home.

What? Walking home from the rubbity? [tonguewink]

I'm disappointed by not making it. There was a bit of work required to be done yesterday, for a district association.

Was good to meet you at last Ian . I took two cameras & a video camera with good intentions of walking the fields & take lots of photo's but that didn't happen what with running the pump & talking to people about how it worked & all the equipment that could be driven off the PTO, also catching up with old friends I have not seen for a couple of years. Here is what I have.
The 1st is Brendan's Bull Catcher S1 from the NT173707 173708 173709
Camel Trophy LR 173710 Oxford Uni S1173711 173712 173713 173714

[1950landy]

I had no idea Oxford was going to be there, otherwise I'd have tried to re-arrange my weekend scheduled work.

Tight arse me is one Donation only sorry, Have a ball you legends[biggrin]

I have a scotch in hand after 3 of the "What Will NOT be Named" cases confirmed today. [bigwhistle]

I need a good wander in the mountains soon. D3 will be needed to get be to the easy bits.

[d2dave]

I wish I had have known that this was on. I was parked up around the corner at the Brisbane market.

I had a spare couple of hours before I was to get loaded. I could have dumped my trailers and gone for a look.

It wasn't a total waste of time though, as I did manage a meet and greet, albeit very brief, with V8 Ian.

Some here might say that this was a waste of time[bigwhistle]:wasntme:
