Enthusiasts of the "Little Grey Fergie" which we all love to see might like to keep an eye out for this event, held every 3 years here in Australia, and scheduled for early July this year. I will really try hard to attend this - it isn't something that occurs every year.
60th Great Flood Rally Wentworth - Grey Fergie Tractor Muster
This year marks 60 years since dozens of local farmers and their tractors saved the local town of Wentworth from certain inundation by a very big flood.
Wentworth is but one of scores of smaller towns on a large inland plain in western New South Wales state, on the mighty Murray River which forms the state border with Victoria. If you are unaware of the part they played in this interesting small piece of Australian history, you can read all about their actual achievements here:

Incidentally, here's another intruiging page about a lady with a few admirable interests:

Keep up the good work, all you good folks ..... Keep preserving them for our children!
