Just a week to go, thankfully it is half term so I might get some of the jobs done!  If you are into old machinery the Acre Rotovator may be going off to the local Industrial Museum this summer... we had the curator round to look at it on Friday and he has some money for Acquisitions...  ::)

"hissing" it down at the moment.

Hope the rain doesnt put too much of a dampener on things.

Hopefully it will stop before 11am.

I will be there anyway.

Do put up some pics when you get a chance, please. And in case anyone hasn't read all saddad's ads, it really is a good day out!
