Speaker 1 (00:36):
How's it all going from your guy's perspective.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Anyway, Well, things are slightly floating to trickle in through
the gate. Normally Friday's a big set up day. We'll
be having a slightly different lay up this year. Frontier
has got quite a bit of construction going on, sort
of a tack up some of their tractor paddic so
visitors will notice a little bit of a different change
in the layup. But we'll still have all the same

(01:00):
entertainments and plenty of all visitors to see and do.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Let's go back to the nuts and bolts at the
event day. But what is the appeal of it?

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Well, you pay your twenty buckskin of the gate and
you can stay all day and there's all sorts of
things to see and do, you can ride all sorts
of things. You write everything from Attraction Engine to a poney.
You can buy all sorts of things from a therapeutic
message to a three D printed dinosaur in the infant
of the crafts. Yeah, there's just such a big variety

(01:29):
of people things, the sea, doing experience and for twenty bucks.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
What can you buy for twenty bucks these days? That
gets you all that.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
It seems to be an event that just keeps getting
more popular over time.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Wow, we like to think.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
So we have people who come every year and I mean,
this is there thirty eighth Now we've been doing it
pretty much for thirty eight years, although it was a
bit humble and are first at beginnings. But yeah, we've
stuck with the two day format since about two thousand
and two and it just seems to be getting just
as popular as it ever has been.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
What's gonna be there? What's There's always a theme with
the event is what have we got for this year?

Speaker 2 (02:04):

Speaker 3 (02:04):
This this theme is Ferguson, Massy Ferguson, and it's sixty
years of Toya and New Zealand, So Daves will have
one of the first corollas that was the same world
in New Zealand and I think part of war year
listers will have seen driven encountered either a Fergi or
a Toyota. I'm sure they would have. I'll be very
surprised if any of any of you listen to haven't.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
So we'll have everything from early land cruises.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
We've got little gray Fergie's, we've got larger Redden gray fergis.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
So that that's a big thing for this year.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
So when there is a theme, what does it mean
for the event? What happens as such?

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Well, we have extra parades, there'd be we should displays
on Like I said, is gonna have is going to
be there with with their early Corolla. They'll be gout
a little special parades and displays. So if you especially
if you have any sort of interest in fergus or tights,
definitely this is the place to be.

Speaker 1 (02:59):

there maybe perhaps likes of bring gun carriers.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah, well the bulldogs will always be there. They're always

that's the time to be.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
The military guys will be along, what sort.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Of display they'll have I'm not sure, but they'll be
probably turning it, but will work out what they'll be doing.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
And it's an event that captures the imagination and more
ways the one. Yes, you've got all the vehicles, the
heavy vehicles and likes, but if the arts and crafts
