Canadian CTF tour.

From Toowamba to Gold coast. Tim Chamen the CTF expert in the UK put me in touch with Tim Neale in Australia. Tim was hosting a CTF group from Canada. I was lucky to be invited to spend two days with them looking at machinery dedicated to CTF from axle modifications to 3 metres to Oztek chaser bins with extended belts for unloading at 12 metres. Three drill manufactures specialing in disc and tine drills. We went to visit different farmers who had converted to 3 metre tramlines on 11 metre and 9 metre systems. On thursday night we went to the RM Williams outback spectacular, where we had a meal watching the romantic history of Australia and the light horse brigade. We retired to Jupiters Hotel and casino. Mel next to me in the photo was crouching so Steve Larocque Canadian Nuffield 2008 could be included in the photo. It was great to finally meet the Canadian CTF entrepreneur and Tim Neale who was a fantastic host and had a well planned and interesting trip. I would like to thank the Canadian group for allowing me to join there trip and for making me feel so welcome. I wish them an enjoyable time in Australia and welcome any of them to come and stay in England.
