Title: Thanks from the Sodbury farmer and an invite back. Post by: Tafflaff (Rob) on January 12, 2014, 10:47:24 PM Guys Proconsul and myself had a long chat with the farmer (and his son) at the end of the rally.
He was really pleased with the level of friendliness shown toward himself and his family. and chuffed with all the 'gifts' of finds given to them. His wife and him have already invited us back to the farm for another rally when the crop comes off in September, I think there was mention of a pig roast as well :) Well done everyone!

Post by: Springj86 on January 13, 2014, 08:26:13 AM I would like to say thank you to every one I spoke to at this rally. Very friendly and helpful and made me feel welcome on my first rally. Seemed only fare to give the farmer the farthing I found as could see his boys eyes light up when he seen it.
Any way catch you at the next rally. Thanks guys Title: Re: Thanks from the Sodbury farmer and an invite back.
