Now why did I think of a ducks a**e?

That's a bit ruff!

Have you done under the tin ware as well?

Happy birthday, Sparky. Have a good one.

Handy having the forge and press. Put one on one side for me please, Ewan. I'll collect at Newby Hall.

Looks to me that, that pedal won't clear the air filter?

Good work Chris. Kudos to both you and Steve.

Lively little fellow isn't he? How old is he? Doesn't look all that young. But I could be mistaken.

Took Barney to his start point this morning. His large bag I actually delivered to Annan in Scotland. When he gets to Cargo, he'll be picked up there and taken to Annan. In the morning he'll be taken back to Cargo and walk on to Annan. I think he's going to stay there for a couple of days rest. You can't but admire him. Though the weather this morning was dry, by the time I was returning from Annan, it was heavy rain/sleet with strong winds. Driving was bad enough, never mind walking 18-19 miles.

Good idea, Ewan. Neat job as well.

Superb fabing Ewan. I love the chrome control levers.

With hair.

Barney is now here with Carol and I. He's had a good walk, covering 18miles. Some by road and some on muddy, soggy footpaths across farmland. Luckily the weather's been kind with just a briefish hail shower. A more informative account of his journey can be found on Facebook. mylongwalkroundbritain

All the Best, Mike.

Barney Lee is on a charity walk round Britain's coast line. You can read all about it on his website. https://barneylee.co.uk/ Tomorrow morning he starts out from Silloth on Solway and I'll be meeting him, somewhere between Cardurnock and Brough by Sands, on the Solway Coast. I'll then bring him home to spend the night with Carol and I. In the morning, I'll return him to where I picked him up and from there he will continue his walk.

Looks good.

Should be ok. You could always go to a weigh bridge just to be sure. Weigh van loaded with tractor. The way you'd have an idea of the tractors weight. BTW. Where are you located?

Ben. Weight wise, at a guess 3/4 to a ton with the mowers. What's the van?

I wish I had your patience, Richard. Superb work!

They're bad. Especially the red one. Looks like they need the bad areas cut out and new material welded in. Or fibre glassing.

I still miss my girls. Rusty just over a year ago and Katie just over two. 15 and 14 respectfully. They won't be being replaced.

That's just a sprinkling.

The C125 went to it's new home this morning with it's happy owner. After we'd unloaded the trailer of logs he'd brought me. So I'm happy too.
