Fun at the Tractor Rally.

The video is done. Here are a few more pics to go with it. This Sparrows wrecker was my favourite, of course, although I love anything on wheels. The more wheels the better. 🚌🚚🚜🚙

Someone has spent a lot of time getting their tractors ready for this. Painstakingly securing the lights to as many surfaces as they can so they don't fall off during their journey.  


Even the vintage tractors were lovingly adorned with Christmas attire. 
I spoke to a young man about this one. It is his pride and joy, and is almost as old as me. He does all the mechanical repairs himself. A fantastic hobby for a young person to immerse himself in. 
The pub car park was buzzing. The event brought a lot of the locals out to chat and swap stories, over a pint or two. 
I was running to catch the start of the arrivals, so the beginning of the video is a bit rushed. 
It's been bitterly cold today. The wind was biting. Almost blew me and Billy boy off our feet. 
Let's see what tomorrow brings. We are past the shortest day thank goodness. Things can only get better.
Thanks for popping in. A very Merry Christmas to all who read my blog and watch my videos.
