...and on that farm he had a tractor!

Once a year all the tractors leave their farms and take to the Colyton roads for the Vintage Tractor Run. From the unashamedly luxe modern to the frankly ancient and decrepit, the farmers take to the road (and their tractors aren't always too new either.) With bunting and balloons and trailing all sorts of contraptions filled with happy passengers, they gleefully hold up all the traffic. If you ever wondered what happened to all the old 3 piece suites that make way for the constant supply of 'sale price' new ones, look no further. Here they are in all their glory, I even saw one trailer with a double bed on board with 3 people in onesies reclining thereon...I looked away! Picnic tables and chairs, bus seats or straw bales every sort of seating is called into service for this annual jamboree. Everybody, from babes in arms to those old enough to know better, having a great day out, raising money for charity and celebrating our farming heritage.
Oh and if anyone would care to put in an offer for my house, which you can see is for sale, (3/4 beds, over 3 floors, quirky, full of character, much loved) I am open to negotiation.
