Trailer layout - time for a change?

Thanks David. My wife - as a passenger - likes the car too. Never been to Iceland, but the roads sound as good as here:rolf::rolf::rolf:

And thanks for you comments Nigel - although I doubt I'd make Lloyds register with the welding.
 
No trouble towing the trailer to the show on Sunday, although part of the road was atrocious in parts (I did feel the increased weight as it bounced over depressions and the suchlike). Braking was also fine.

It was a tiring day even though the trailer was easier to set up and shut up. Swollen and aching legs, plus usual fatigue.

Started on a primitive "distancing" barrier yesterday recycling materials and offcuts.

Finished assembly this morning and set it up. It might be as useful as a chocolate fireguard (I expect) but, with the aid of a sign or two, it defines a no-go area. Kids will obviously get under it (fences are only a short term obstacle anyway) but I've marked my turf.

I have ordered some bunting which I will fasten to the rope to give some solidity to the barrier.
 
I had thought of painting the arms and brackets but I'll wait and see what happens at the next show. Meanwhile, I have an electrical continuity problem on the long straight track. Once that's sorted, the trailer will be parked undercover so I can get on with some gardening. It has promised rain for later this afternoon:rolf::rolf::rolf:
 
That's a very neat and elegant solution, Mick. In the longer term, you could replace the cord with wire and run a current through it to really mark out your turf!
 
Cheers Gordon. Yes, wire has been suggested, and an old electric fence battery with a pair of wires - most people would leave it alone out here (especially if there was a ticking noise coming from it:rolf::rolf::rolf:

Well, I've put the trailer in the barn - and it didn't rain - so I've been cutting weeds down! If it's still dry tomorrow morning I have to cut the hedge - alongside which, the railway runs. At least the goats will eat all the privet when I've done:thumbup:
