I have today heard via grapevine that this trusty saw bench has changed hands again

Well a nice and local find and just had to come home to be added to my collection and yes guys I do know it’s not a jalo !

Please see photo of hortag fork & spade with wolf terrex fork & spade on the outside. Hope this is of interest

Well done, many thanks for sharing your road trip and photos with us all, many thanks and happy Christmas Dan

My mk2 steed came with spud wheels which I have fitted. I will photo of wheels & post here soon

Thanks Steve as you know (and guyys at Ardingly 2013)I have been on look out for the ransomes flea beetle duster to show along side my ransomes vibro hoe. The planet Jr 35 seeder is the one which was used by, J T Lowe to copy and produce the jalo jiffy seeder. Think it will look good to be shown together with jalo history

Just back home from 280 mile collection, but we have had an enjoyable day

No dead line for February issue is 15 th January. Think it Will have to go on my visiting list

Received mine today, thanks to all who have been involved. I will pay press invoice when I receive it !

Great book I found my copy on Amazon, another good book from 1949 is mechanical aids to gardening by J G Wallace

Thanks go to Dave Clark for you help. Another question can anyone help with information about jalo spanner? I have one but was it supplied foc or as an extra?

Nice find Chris and right there on your doorstep, well done

Another great find today – a full page advert in a 1947 book few acre farms by J.J. Black, this is first information I seen of the early steel jalo, priced at 63 shillings delivered to your local railway station in a wooden crate

Many thanks go to Sam, Alan and Charlie for there prompt replies. I have today found a full page advert in a March 1955 amateur gardening magazine showing the cast aluminium wheel model . So did the press steel with rubber tyre model get launched. Still need some data of earlier all steel model.

Alan maybe worth an appeal for a title ? I will start by garden tractor in the bush

Um you know my saying Charlie – I can’t read or write but I can drive a tractor! Me did book Travelodge week before we went to weeley for the correct week end in March. Well I hope did as I booked for other members too

My entry form came in yesterday’s post, Travelodge booked mid September see you there

I plan to come up tomorrow too see you there
