Give me a shout and I'll lend a hand. May get to drive one at last.

Wheel conversion all done and dusted now. A bonus is the steering is a tad lighter.

I was referring to a house name of a certain Ransome fanatic, of Rhys and my acquaintance.

Must admit, that grill does look better. The mesh just finishes it off.

Leave it alone. That's the first I've seen in yonks.

Been to wet here to try mine yet.

All the Best, Richard.

I got the trailer stub axles I've been waiting for this morning. So this afternoon I was able to start the front wheel conversion. First thing was to modify the stub axles. The spigot on the end was cut down to 1/2" long then bored out 3/4" by 1" deep. Next remove the existing front wheels and modify the axles. These were shortened to 3/4". The modified stubs were located on the cut down axle and wheels put on to see how things looked. Things looked ok so axles removed and stubs welded to them. Then everything put back together. Still to paint, grease and adjust, but I think it doesn't look bad. Though I did find the left hand wheel has a slight run out.

Clean it off if it won't spoil the sign, Rhys. BTW. Where have I seen the name Rutherford before?

Those must have been taken Saturday.

Where are todays photo's, Chris?

You just may George. It's only 160 miles up the road. Travel Lodge methinks.

9am and decided to chance it and have a run down this morning, as it was nice and sunny. 75 plus miles and 1-1/2 hours later I arrived. Still sunny. Met up with Mark Smith (meadowfield) and Ewan (Cub Cadet) and had a bit of a wander round. They went to pack up the tent and I did a bit more wandering. It's a big show with plenty to see and well spaced out. BTW. In my rush to leave home I forgot my camera. I found my way to the Smith camp and met Fatha, (Norlet), and the rest of the clan. That's when the rain started and forgot to stop. Leaving the Smiths I did a bit more wandering, then left for home. I may enter and go for the weekend next year. Be cheaper than the £14 to get in.

Had to change the lift wire. Basically because the cable clamps were a little big. Fitted some spare heavy duty electric fence cable left over from in the silage pit Two clamps each end. Lifts the plough without problem now.

You don't want a MK3 then? Pity, I was going to knock up another 3 for RPT. Don't think I get more right than that Chris. But I am going to put another three holes in. You never know, they might be needed for something.

I guessed that.

I have Koen. Got them off one Chris brought up to Newby Hall last year. I'll see if a can take a photo and send it to you. Unless Mark has something better.

At a guess, that's a Raleigh in the first photo.

Do one something similar to the one I've made, Koen.

I like the two legged one in the middle.

Nice, Koen. That's what I was thinking.

Where is it? Photo's!

That hollow is there, So fortunately not worn. Perth? Is that the Scone Rally? Put it in the coming shows section.

This what you want to see?

Give me 10 minutes, George.
