Stormin

When I find the time to get the wood and the time to make them.

Toilet cleaner is for cleaning to toilet, Nigel. NOT you bum. Though I suppose it depends on the state of your bum.

Looking forward to meeting you, Alan. BTW. I know where most things are now. Pity I'm t'other end of the country.

With the spade you can move the wheel round a bit, if the studs are out of line a bit with the holes. You can't turn the hub.

Another part timer.

Spotted the rear offside mud flap was hanging off the Disco yesterday. Only one self tapping screw stopping it say adieu. So this morning I thought I'd better do something about it. So a piece of surplus shelving bracket, four nuts and bolts plus an hour and, VIOLA! Another thing I found was, despite the wheels being alli, they ain't half heavy. A short army surplus spade now resides in the back. Just the job for levering the wheel up onto the studs.

Neither will you unless you duck.

The Work Horse, C-125, has been a bit off colour lately. Suspect dirt in the carb. So today off with the float bowl and my suspicion was correct. Some strange foreign particles floating about in there. Cleaned and re-fitted, then started up and did the hand over venturi trick to clear the jets. Re-set the carb for idle then full throttle and the old thing is running like a good un. I then decided to check over the C121 and C81 as they are going to R.P.T. and Biddenden shows. They are both now in the peak of fitness. Here they are, snug as bugs in a rug.

What's wrong with Saturday as well?

Things are looking good. Just need the weather to be kind. I should be there sometime on Friday afternoon.

I know where there's one.

I don't know. Chris does your welding. Mr Deness, (whoever he is?) does your mechanics. I suppose you sup tea and watch?

Your doing well, Rhys. Nice job on getting the curve.

Don't know of any others with FMC on. Must admit it's in good condition and only 1400hrs.

The Mountfield I recently sold had a B&S engine. I re-fitted the linkages on that the wrong way round. Worked ok though and the tractor went faster.

Keeps you out of the pub as well.

Gears look in good condition despite the light rust.

Been wondering what had happened to you, Alain. Pleased your back.

Happy anniversary Mrs and Mr Showman.

Entries are still open although a closing date was on the entry forms. We never turn anyone away, not even on the day, as many are working farmers.

Not what I was thinking.

Decent weather this year, Mark. Nearly went down on Sunday, but had one or two things to do for Dunc. Not to mention SWMBO. I like the black and white photo of the traction engines. Very retro.

£150 + shipping?? Think I'll start an import business.

I've fitted boat engine priming bulbs to mine, Richard. Just a squeeze is all you need.
