Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
Thank you to all club members that have renewed, 321 so far including 40 family members and 8 non UK members.

Dan, what a great account of acquiring and collecting these machines, along with some good photos. We always like to see something different. The hauler is similar to UK machines such as Wrigley, Trac Grip and Bonser.

I think I have seen one or two of those come up on that auction site.

The Trusty came with a small approx 3″ x 4″ instruction manual. I do not have but believe there is a parts list. I am sure other forum members such as trusty220 will have one.

Club member David Pearce has one which he stills uses and brings along as an exhibit at Semington.

Although they are all posted at the same time, delivery can be spread over a number of days, might be worse this time due to Christmas post.
If not received by next week let me know.

Part no. 10396 is an extension which would have been an extra, not standard.
