Stormin 4,458 #7 Posted March 13, 2016 Well I've bit the bullet and entered, with the Black Horse and Auto Culto plough. Tam Tweedie (Ransome Plooman) is coming down and bringing a friend. So I should get plenty of good advice. I hope. Come on Jonathan, not to late. I'll get you in. 1 pmackellow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

expeatfarmer 591 #15 Posted March 15, 2016 Norman I am struggling for a trailer on Sunday as Chris is off to a 4x4 trial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #16 Posted March 16, 2016 60 + entries to date. If my info is correct 4 of which are horticultural. 2 Wheel Horses plus another tractor and 1 Ransomes. Maybe another Ransomes on the day. Horticultural will have an area of their own. Forecast is for fine but chilly. Not to late to enter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #17 Posted March 16, 2016 Good number of entrants Norm, shame its not a bit nearer so I could come Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
expeatfarmer 591 #18 Posted March 17, 2016 Still not sure exactly where it is Norm, is it signposted off the Durdar Brisco road? Which tractor shall I bring? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #19 Posted March 17, 2016 You can't miss it Jonathan. Head for the Golden Fleece. First left after the car boot place. First field on right. It will be sign posted. Fetch which ever you think best for ploughing. Ploughing starts at 10am. I know it's early for you, but try and get there for 9am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
