Looks like I should be able to make it, just means I'll have to drag wolfdog round with me but she should be OK.

Gonna be there with some toys. Looks like a reasonable turn out with axe throwing, pole lathes, super serious felling comp, big biomass kit and the classic burger van.

Dead easy to find - junction 41 on M6, follow the yellow sign till you see a field with a big collection of toys.

 

If you turn up before I finish the beers, there'll be one going spare.

Wondered if some of the stuff of the list might have been yours

 

Do you know if Dan's there with his horse? Haven't seen him in ages.

He's on the list, but didn't see him today. Bring the hound to eat the kids, they think they live with big dogs!

Last minute decision but I'm on my way up after getting my lady and the kids in the truck

I hope I'm not to late to have a go at the axe throwing

Had a really good day at the show today the logging show was pretty good to watch can't remember the names of the lads but you were good👍👍👍

All the stands were full of some big toys like the hiezo that could take a small car!!!

And I scored a decent 19 in the axe throwing...

I had a good few hours up there over lunch time. Not a Stihl saw in sight but plenty of big forestry kit. A lot to see and do and free trees a plenty. I didn't fair quite as well on the axe throwing though.

I managed a couple of hours this aft. Caught up with a few faces I'd not seen for a while and nicely surprised how much was there too

Enjoyed the show, even my wife did! Sat behind the food vans having some lunch and there were three blokes sitting a few feet away from us. I thought I recognised the voice of one of them but he had a big beard. After a while plucked up the courage and asked if he was Andy Porter - thankfully it was! We used to be in the North East Rover Owners club but I have not seen him in 12 years!! Small world!!!!
