Yes and do you now what she said DOES MY BUM LOOK BIG IN THIS

Two views from my back garden this morning, snow not as bad as it looked last night when trying to drive in it wind was blowing strong last night as bits of trees lying around ,very cold out there at the moment

not martyn but my 72 year old mate Eric that's got the fire-wood business since he had his stroke 2 years ago he not got much feeling in hands an fingers so cant do the fiddly jobs changing light bulbs gas bottle connections and stuff but can still hold chain-saw and use sawbench so most Thursday nights I go keep him company for a couple of hours and that way you can keep a eye on him as he lives alone and yes he makes me a drink coffee not tea

Its now 7-30pm and we have a good layer of snow road outside mine is covered hope we don't get too much more in next few hours as I now have to pop out to a friends house and make sure he is ok and change his gas bottle on his stand by heater

That's enough of that Mr Tractorman810 I aint that old I still got most of my own teeth

That's the place Chris mate was down there Saturday night having a meal with them ,(the wifes friends not your cattle )

That's enough off you ESSEX talk chris we don't understand it down he

The wife's friends live at the Holbrook Lodge which is at the entrance to the private girls school on the way to shotley and where they keep they horses they told me that somebody from Essex had some cattle down there which I put 2an2 together and thought it must be you

Started the McCormick up today to keep the battery's topped up then the wife said she will take it for a drive round the village

Cant beet a good bramble up your backside Chris

I was asked by the solicitor and the Exeter's to the will of some land that I rent if I could put some antifreeze in the two tractors that remain on the farm and get them in the shed ,well I did the 474 but the 414 when I found it I just let the water out will do that one another day

Cold very windy with light snow flurries mixed in with the rain down here in my part of Suffolk ,I now other places have it worse than I do so cant complain

that's just what I meant by funny pictures thanks mark

At least you can still pop in and out of the forum when you like not like some that have chucked in the towel of late ,you don't have to be building/converting models all the time to join in as you often make me smile with some of your quotes and funny pictures you put up look forward to your next ones Greengrass ,or MadMark or what ever .
