Have just been rummaging through the unit next doors scrap bin(with permission) and have found a few off cuts of steel plte that will be ideal for the rear flap, hopefully I can replicate the original.

Hi Phil,
two of them yes, managed to get all three together showing three variations after an initial ….. well, bad arrangement, but all was well in the end, for visitors too.
Proudly they all received massive interest throughout. All came on the same lorry and I enjoyed the show as a spectator for the first time in 6 or seven years!.
The catering manager needs to try to run his own business I’d suggest, People will not pay.
Still their loss & moans to ignore, but otherwise a truly good show on the whole. Look out for a ‘special’ President arrangement next year Phil! You’ll know it’s me then!

very nice for you , john. it is a good looking tractor.

I use a soft brick to clean up the very rusty ones here, other than that the best thing is to find a sandy place and plow away at it. I always carry a small putty knife, to clean off the stuck on places. After plowing we spray the shiny parts with Slip-Plate, as the grease draws to much dirt/dust and is messy to handle.

Titch, are the Presidents all yours? If so, I spoke to you as you were putting them in place. If I had known, I would have introduced myself.

The prices charged by the caterers at Newark are high, I have complained to the Catering manager but all he says is ” People pay”. On Saturday night, 20 of us stewards went off-site to a local restaurant and DID NOT talk tractors. PHIL

Could not remember what the lady in the hat was saying to me at all but I am sure when she first spoke, I said hello darling how are ya !
