We got 2 lunches, tonnes of drinks and turned down several beers - I guess you must have an unfriendly face!
Saw @Gunners having an in-depth convo with a JCB chap - nobody was bleeding so hopefully things were friendly

To be fair, plenty of drink! I do indeed have an unfriendly face these days!

Quote of the day from a rep to my mate who’s looking for a new 13ton.. ‘yeah we have two demo machines, 9/10 folks buy one after a demo we(the dealer) gets pretty pissy if you don’t buy after a demo so I wouldn’t bother having one if your not going to buy it’ only wanting to spend 100k you know!

I thought the new Kubota (which is a Sumitomo like the Case, and also like the Sumitomo ) was a nice machine - I’d defo be demoing one if buying at present.
