Hi from rolloman two anzani motor hoes 1 iron horse (walk behind )1 iron horse 4 wheeler  Scotland  

i am starting a register for all anzani horticultural machines, there is one already for the iron horse run by pat holt and long may it continue. i would like to get lawnriders, easimows and motor hoes. iron horses are also welcome as an addition but not to replace the great list that pat and george had built up over the years. also any other horticultural anzani’s that may exist. so if you would be kind enough to help me get started please could you pm me the machine model,number, engine type and any other information that might be of interest along with your name and county. i will then send you an email of the register once its up and running. many thanks.
p.s if your iron horse is not yet registered with pat holt i can pass your information to pat at your request

Easimow 24" Derbyshire

I live in Ireland and its surprising how many Anzani Iron horses are  hidden away in sheds . From bringing my own iron horse to vintage shows I have met about 9 other owners , most are parked up in sheds , but there are two in Dublin that go to the ploughing matches. I believe the late George Holt had a long list of Uk owners. At one show I met an elderly gentleman ,less that two miles from me and got invited to see his sheds ...which  to my delight had a fine easimow..almost like new . He said it was much too heavy and tended to sink into the lawn when he tried it out...he had a jap 5 engine that I managed to buy off him , that now powers my own iron horse.

hi all, im trying to find out who has a british anzani iron horse, motor hoe, lawnrider or easimow. would you be kind enough to post on here what you have and what county you are from, many thanks
 
i will start the wheels turning with 1 iron horse, 2 motor hoes and 2 lawnriders. kent

After his recent exploration of the crushed caravan, looking for long lost treasure's, Chris was determined to carry on with his new hobby of caravan diving.
 
This is a variation of the well known skip diving, but includes a roof in case of bad weather.  As it happened it was raining anyway, so we all got a bit damp. We discovered that the roof only worked if we were under it.
 
 After digging out two heavy bench's from the back of John's barn with help from friend Steve, plus more goody finding, Chris pleaded to be allowed to hack his way through years of bramble's and growth surrounding, or should I say burying, a pair of small touring caravans which had been used for storage.
 
With Chris leading the way, there was no stopping him, we hacked, clipped and chopped through to the door of the first van. Carefully opening the door which was unlocked, Chris was greeted by the sight of - - - JUNK.  There was barely room for Chris to stick his head inside the doorway, the junk almost falling out at his feet.
 

 
Disappointed at not seeing anything of interest, a more thorough exploration may follow later, Chris turned his attention to the second caravan which was about 6 to 8 feet away. As the doors faced each other he opted for the direct route by tunneling through the brambles etc which he said would be the quickest way.
 

 
A short while later Chris popped up beside a locked door, which was persuaded to open with the help of a crowbar.  There was room to step inside this caravan which contained various car parts and other goodie's.  It wasn't long before Chris emerged with a big grin on his face, where else, holding a pair of mismatched tri rib garden tractor tires which matched a pair of mismatched tri rib tires found in John's shed a few weeks ago.
 
John has a strange storage system.
 
The junk in the first caravan probably belonged to John's brother in law, who lived on the premises before him.
 
A few other assorted tires plus a Honda engined generator were also extracted.  More digging required in this second caravan. As it was getting late it was decided to pack up for the day and dry off before we headed home.
 
 

Delivered SWMBO's Triumph Spitfire to it's new owner this morning. I now have MY workshop all to myself.
Look at all that space.
 

 
Started to build some storage shelving this afternoon. By 'eck it's hard work.
