Whilst Matt and Tim were sat in the Copper Kettle cafe at Weston having their breakfast, they mused over this year's carnivals and remarked on how few technical problem we'd had that year.....
Well we set off back to Westonzoyland at about 11:00am, fortunately the traffic in town wasn't too bad and again most drivers were friendly and co-operative. We steamed out of Weston up to just before Highbridge when Gary comes over the radio "The tractor's died.. it just stopped!", Gary was towing the generator trailer at the back of the convoy escorted by Budgie, Tim and Matt in the club van. It was soon obvious the tractor wasn't going to start due to a flat battery (the batteries had only been replaced 3 days ago, at a cost of £200). We managed to unhitch the cart from AJ's tractor and hitch it up to the decorated tractor, then sent AJ back to tow Gary into a lay-by and hitch up to the Generator trailer. Once this was done we waved good-bye to a very unhappy Gary sat in his tractor and pulled away heading for the weigh-bridge at Dunball.
