Here's a pic of our latest toy.


I told you a little while ago that Terry and I had bought a trailer between us - and here's a picture.

It isn't half a mega-beast, with a carrying capacity of 2.5 tonnes. Terry's tractor and broyer went onto this and the thing didn't even bat an eyelid.

It's a 4-wheeler with 12" wheels, detachable sides and back, and a pair of ramps that would be the envy of anyone. I have the Minerva and the 2000E estate to collect to Brussels some time when I have the room , and this will do all of that without any effort at all. I'm impressed.

So this morning I wnt down to Liz and Terry's where we put one of the old caravan chassis on top of the other one and then put them both on the trailer. Guillaume and his mate and then Simon came round in mi-chemin and once they had been sorted out Terry brought the load around here. We took off the two old trailers and dumped them round the side of the barn and then Terry loaded up his tractor and set off for home.

I put a couple of buckets of mortar onto the wall and it's starting to look much better.

Tomorrow I have to go to Bill's to fix his computer and then I'm off to Clermont Ferrand for a meeting that starts tomorrow evening and finishes on Saturday late afternoon. If I don't blog tomorrow night it will because I won't have been able to find a wi-fi point.
