I can sell you one..... we can discuss it over a Buffalo burger 😁😝

You know the way to my heart.

I already have something with engcon on and no one wants to pay extra for it. :ROFLMAO: so it stays in the shed awaiting the day ;) At present there is more money to be made jumping on other peoples long reaches believe it or not o_O

The weather has been generally very good today. Andrew has been posting some stuff on other social media which you may have seen but I've been too busy to take photos. We've had our highest turnout yet with all 12 diggers being pretty much busy all day and a fairly fast time being set in the operator challenge. Wet to start with but by 10.30 it was sunny and the light wind has dried things out nicely.

A weary but happy crew heading home (well, to the pub, actually (y)). It will probably cost me more in the bar tonight than the whole event to date :eek:

Forecast for tomorrow is good, food bus is restocked with bacon and buffalo burgers, lots to play on from 1.8t to 22t, twin hitch and direct mount, all control systems, EC-Oil attachments, the new QSC hitch control, an M J O'Brian duck and Robin Webber's now legendary 4CX. Plenty of Engcon and other staff on hand, together with GPS, laser, lots of other stuff and all the networking you could wish for. Tell the other half you've got to price a job and treat yourself.

No harm in rewarding the team with a few beers!!!!

I was impressed with the efforts in the snow last year and you do certainly seem to have the weather challenges when you put these events on. Hope it is a roaring success as from my point of view you have an amazing product and great service. Long May it continue!
