Did I congrat you? As I'm always very busy on Sunday evening saying goodbye and wishing good return trips to everybody, so here and there someone slips away without me seeing them.
Anyway congrats Alan and see you in Gaydon.  :thumbsupup:

I got the blade as well, bit later in the day, the sun had come round, could have gone a bit further but didn't have time to wait, it was probably going to Ostende, there was a lot of turbine stuff in the docks so was probably for an offshore farm.

Had a good day on the Sunday, and bought the Scanny Drawbar off Heinz, plus a few other bits.

Only that the day was spoiled by the UK customs in Dover, at the last point, was asked to go into the shed on the left and then got the preverbial grilling, as for my kit, he asked if I had a reciept and I said no, just gave him 60 Euro and he gave me the box, so he made me open it!! and then said Oh it is a kit, how long will that take to build, I said a few months if it ever gets built. Then after a few more questions, around 20 minutes in total, said we could go, good job he didn't ask what was in the carrier bag, I don't think  "Resin" parts would have gone down well.
