Thanks chaps for your best wishes for my birthday. Much appreciated.

That was my question actually. Yes good to have a name for these butterflies.

Great photos Norm and amusing tag against my photo. I don't listen to all that flannel about how good WHs are........

Good photos from all. I enjoyed both shows for different reasons. Already planning for next year.

Good little crop Alain. What sort of dishes do you make using those vegetables?

I saw one photo Norm of the Showman's Bolens towing a WHeel Horse at RPT. A great photo imo. Harry, you have lost the game already before it started ! That will spur Chris on to get that HT20 pulling...

Tomatoes look very healthy Alain.

Kev, thanks for organising a good horticultural display at Biddenden; it was a good turnout of assorted machinery. Cheers Andrew

Tidy job and good to see the Bolens hauling that load with ease. I must get my HT20 steering sorted and I know of just a chap to sort that out for me......

Look really profesional Chris and Norm; particularly with the Bolens White background.

Just want to pass on my thanks to Chris Sutton aka the Showman for organising a fantastic relaxing weekend at RPT who was ably helped by Norman aka Stormin' where I got the chance to give my Bolens 600 a good run out for both days. I also drove the Showman's Bolens until it threw a belt and also pulled a disc harrow that belonged to Growbag until that parted company..... The Bolens doesn't know it own strength.......

I kńow that feeling all too well Chris. I have relocated all my Bolens to one storage yard and it been a challenge I can tell you. I just got too much and it's completely filled up with implements and so forth. Fortunately my 600 was at the front so it was easy to drive out and run up,the ramps into my van. I have therefore got my Bolens 600 loaded up this evening in readiness for RPT. Just going to use my Morris van for the next two days before I shoot off to Sussex.

A really well written humorous story Alan. I had my doubts about his caravan towing skills and this confirms my suspicions.

Good to see the cutting deck being used. The engine sound very sweet too. Will you be restoring the tractor too at some point?

That's good news; looking forward to getting the pass in due course. Thanks

Tidy job Spares are relatively easy to get a hold of and they do a good enough job cutting grass but don't allow it to get too long though.

You keep that pretty weed free Alain Always fascinating to see what you guys grow over there in your back yard.

A superb job Alain.

Posted this afternoon so should be with you Kevin by Wednesday .

Posted this afternoon. Should get to Bexhill by Wednesday at the latest.

Great to see the EK up and running Iain. It looks really tidy and the articulation is fantastic. A new seat cover will set it off no end.

Belated birthday wishes Nigel.

Nice little collection of vintage chainsaws. I bet they are heavier than the newer ones (Stihl and Husqvarna) but got more character I guess.

Ewan, if it's anything like your Cub Cadet resto, this will be another WH salavaged from the scrap heap. Look forward to reading more more about the project in due course.

Just been looking at a few videos. The safety factor is an interesting point and applying direct heat to the bolt itself without damaging or distorting the surrounding areas appeals to me greatly. I am assuming that you could save a lot of time using this tool which would obviously speed the job up no end. However the price at the moment is the only negative point I got about this product. Hopefully over time the product will be become more widely available and thus cheaper? Have you got a trade card so you might be able to get it a tad cheaper? Be interesting to see others views on this.
