A little bit of vintage in the tractor run procession!  by happypat

A little bit of vintage in the tractor run procession!

Over 200 tractors & waggons but none enjoyed it more than this old guy on his vintage little grey Fergie.
I loved the way he held his arm aloft!
Great Eccleston was busy.

Three good things:
1. A last long walk with Connie this afternoon. She goes home tonight! Not a good thing but I think she will be glad to see her family again.
2. Some goodies from Marks & Spencer’s food outlet on the way home.
3. Chatting on the canal bank.
4. My nieces husband David has just been on Countryfile talking to John Craven about a very rare plant around Haweswater.
That must have been great fun for those taking part and for everyone watching. I have never driven a tractor but I would have loved to. I’m too old now 😂

@susiemc A Massy Ferg is a good place to start.

@julzmaioro No he hasn’t done as it’s a long way round….his hasn’t been used since we moved house. He’s going to enter it in the local show as we are just round the corner. To take it on the road you have to register it with the vintage tractor society & then you can apply for a licence, it’s free but you have to do it properly.
