Rural Past Times. 2018.

 There was a little rain as Chris and I arrived Thursday afternoon. Cleared up and the rest of the weekend was fine.

 

These photo's of our pitch. Chris in Charge.

 

The ground where we usually have a working area, was like concrete. So we went to play in the potato patch.

 

Not get many chips out of this lot, Chris thinks.

 

Bottoms up.

 

If you'd taken those silly shades off like I told you, this wouldn't have happened.

 

How about  some organ music.

 

 

I wonder who these two tractors belong too?

This is my tractor, yes it is very similar to a Pasquali, it is also made in Italy by Valpadana. Mainly used in Europe for small vineyards as it’s very maneuverable being articulated in the centre.

I'm curious about this blue one... looks like a fun ride. Has some sort of badge on the front of the box... any other info?

Can't think of the make. Google Martin Bonsor - Autotruck. They used to be used in market gardens, factories etc. Engine mounted above and driving front wheel. Turn in less than their own length. Some bigger ones were rear wheel drive with engine under the seat.

Very cool... yes, thanks. It appears that it's a Bonser Truck... looks the same as a model TF2 on several UK vintage sites. Has resemblance to a Heald Hauler or Cushman Truckster over here.

 

Thanks again... great pictures.
