Hi MJ and Hugh, now back home in Canada after a wonderful three week trip to UK. The weather was excellent only two days of rain in three weeks. Had a good chat with MJ and his wife at a vintage tractor show at Newby Hall near Ripon UK. Great tractor show. My wife had a great time visiting the gardens while I was looking at tractors. She rated the Newby Hall gardens in the top three of the gardens that we visited and we visited several well known gardens.

Jim: Welcome back, glad to hear you had a good trip. Are you speaking any Yorkshireese, had to get that one off on MJ, "bye the hell fired". I had a Yorkshire native farm next door, took me two years to figure out his language.

Hugh,
I work with one, so Yorkshire language was good but Welsh and Scots were another story. Just some interpretation required, we say 4-44 they say 4-4-4. MJ gave me an excellent history of the tractor manufacturing/sales in the UK.
