A view into the station waiting room where the majority of the parts are waiting to get put back on to the rest of the tractor.
The wheel rims have come back from galvanising, the engine should be here this afternoon from having one valve seat renewed and all the rest reseated etc. The radiator, burst by frost & repâired should be here on Friday or Monday, Tom's delivery of oil seals....(long list) should be here in a few days (French customs permitting) and Baby is invited to a "Fête de Moisson" along with VIKI the Cub in "Rôbe de Champs" and The Allis B and an interesting corn cleaner.
The fête is to be held on the site of an old village on the top of the Monts d'Arrée just up the road from us on the 24th July Sunday.
The village is abondoned since 130 years when the railway came to the region and the whole village moved 3km down the hill to be closer to the railway rather than being on an old Roman Road to Brasparts. There is one farm a couple of houses and a ruined and pillaged church and "Ossuaire" left, we will be in the grounds of the church hopefully.
So keep fingers crossed for us please,
Pat and Noëlle
