the showman

I see your wearing your colour coded shirt in the last photo

Looking good Norm.

It has a poker type rod about 5 foot long with a air hose attached to the end, if you look at the second photo its laying on the floor and in the forth photo the chap is holding it with the airline over his shoulder. He just pokes it in the dirt and turns the air on.

The Bobcat with the pecker just breaks through the tarmac and concrete and loosely the dirt then the vacuum sucks it all up. The new plastic main is inside the old cast iron pipe, then they disconnect each house and inject expanding foam in between the old and new, smash the old cast iron pipe and fit a saddle. the service pipe to the house is the same with a plastic pipe inside the old pipe, then just connected to the meter. all done with live gas so no smoking while they do it.

Changing the gas main at my house, all done by machine now, how lazy. Paddy with a shovel has been made redundant

Happy Birthday Alain, hope you have a good day

Sorry that's all ive got

This is the Brinly I've got, but its megger heavy

I've only got these, small ones are 60m x 85m , bigger ones are 75m x 85m

Looks like you did well under the conditions George, well done mate

Many happy returns of the day Iain, hope you have a good day and Joseph lets you drive a Bolens

I went Friday and got set up, Saturday was fine and the showground was packed, Sunday was drizzle all day but i was surprised how many visitors braved the weather in all i had a good weekend. heres a few photos.

Happy birthday Norm, hope you have a good day. I'll have one for you in the beer tent shortly

Come out with your hands up !!!

Hands up who did that to Pam's lawn,

Its taking shape Alan, i know where to come when I build the next special.

I shall be displaying the Raider 12 and Bolens at this show over the weekend, had a good turnout last year.

Glad it made that sort of money also glad I didn't see it.

Yes Ian and much appreciated, nice to sit and chat and drink tea.

At least he turns up to the shows

Here's a few photos i took of the arena display today. The only thing i bought was a couple of galvanised signs for £2.50 each, worth the money i thought

Happy Birthday mate, all the best

Not long now, gonna get loaded up today. Anyone else going. Apart from Alan,

How do you know ?

Found this today in my bedside cabinet, and Pam never found it.
