Had a great hour talking to @Simon Chiles the lads got carried away having selfies with licra clad girls on a jcb whilst I studiously examined prestressed concrete channels.

Very jolly day...bumped into RTK Farmer on the RTK stand (what are the chances, eh?) and various other friends. Tractor salesmen were a bit disconsulate about the fact so many direct drills are being sold, whilst, oddly, no-one wants to buy new horses.
Got some great ideas for Groundswell 17...

Good to catch up with team martian. Nice to meet and have discussion with @Simon C about none tramline tramlines. Interested to prospect of T22? double hopper seeder, two seeds, two rates, one controller from @Jim Bullock Tillage.
Anything more than 150hp or that moved soil in any form, i.e. over 3/4 of the show, was of no interest at all which gave a quite liberated feeling whilst walking around.

Decided to do some kerb on osr instead of Lamma this year as . Just could not get excited about the 3 hour traveling each way and to end up looking at mostly over priced kit in the cold that we might end up with in another 10 years here .
Then add in the salesmans opening lines of come far how was the traffic feel like saying feck the traffic i want to talk about this machine.
Anyway anything new always comes up on here and other sites so you don't miss much .

40 miles each way was enough for me to be honest. Had I not have been involved with 2 stands may not have bothered! I was surprised to talk to people that had travelled from Ireland, Wales, the north west, Cornwall and Kent.

My Russian friends got up at 5.30 and flew from Moscow to go to the show. It helps if you fly with the sun.
