CTC Working Weekend |
|
|
|
The CTC Working Weekend 2005 was held at Trerice Farm, St Allen
and what a lovely weekend we had with people coming from near and far with their
tractors, ploughs and cultivating equipment. |
|
The weekend was a great success, we had lovely weather, lots of help and wonderful atmosphere. The men worked hard preparing the fields for ploughing, getting the water and the equipment for the cooking. |
|
The Heavy Horse Club also brought their horses, together with carriages, and are hoping to come again next year |
|
Willie Alford and the Hutchings brothers brought up the thrashing machine to thrash the corn cut at St Newlyn East – what a sight that was. |
|
The ladies worked hard cooking and preparing the food but we all thoroughly enjoyed it, the evening went down well with a pasty supper and a surprise karaoke, there was some lovely singing from one and all. |
|
On Sunday the all day breakfast carried on and with fresh pasties for lunch. To our surprise we sold out of all the food. Dorothy made yeast buns in the marquee on both days and they all sold like “hot cakes”. |
|
It was so nice to see the men enjoying themselves. There was no rush, they ambled about chatting, eating, drinking and of course ‘a bit of ploughing’. |
|
And of course there was always something to look at and admire. |
