  1. Someone forgot to turn the pump off
  2. Gavin you genius! I hadn't even considered the NFU. Now the local branch has given me a very reasonably priced quote and I can now go and get it! Thanks.
  3. Yes they seem to hate students/young people and the unemployed in equal measure
  4. Test driving, and sitting at home waiting for the phone to ring (when the line's not dead that is but thank you E-On for restoring it)
  5. Here's another Accord Windy: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/britains-tractors-accord-seed-drill-boxed-9544-/290459042956?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_ToysGames_DiecastVehicles_DiecastVehicles_JN&hash=item43a0b5448c
  6. Tree/shrub trimming & shaping + earlier another go on the Husky Rider tractor mower.
  7. More Britains stuff natch: Forage Harvester with the black spout and orange wheels (unboxed and a little damaged) 60s driver with pipe in grey (minus pipe) Sandersons forklift -later version- unboxed Autoway signs/cones/workmen from set 9801 Unusual powerfarm Vicon with yellow centres and a white auger MIB dated 1988. Red log trailer from #9627 Valmet set Powerfarm Ford 8830 in average-poor (but working) condition Faun Spud harvester MIMB (at last!) Rare yellow Bauer from set 9605 (with the 2680) this one has black instead of red pipes/pump
  8. Are those bale catapults behind the John Deere balers? I've never seen a trailer loaded like that.. Edit: just found a video explaining how it's done but yet to find one of them in action

    At work with Gav

    Fascinating and eye-opening read, thanks for these updates Gavin
  10. Stick with Ebay Andrew you'll get one eventually! Alternatively pay a visit to one of the upcoming Toyfairs, they always have tonnes of stuff to buy and more than likely at least one Accord! I love your Autoway collection, never really collected much of it myself but I'm starting to pick up the odd 1 or 2.
  11. Buy It Now for that price??!!! :of A case of right-place right-time, well done you
  12. Unpacking and constructing a sofa bed. The man who delivered it was a bit hacked off after he ran his 7.5 tonne truck into the verge, breaking the just-repaired cab steps. He also managed to clip numerous low hanging boughs along our drive and was lucky not to collide with anything else. We tried to tell the sofa sellers that a 3-4 tonne van was required for our narrow steep lanes but they seem determined to send pallet delivery companies whose smallest vehicles are 7.5T gross The guy said that when he complained to his boss, he was told that he can always go on the dole if he didn't like his working conditions! What an attitude.
  13. Yes no question DX92. They might have simply uploaded the wrong photo, but yes, good idea to clarify.
  14. Hacking at a bramble thicket below our wall. I really can't understand why the farmer can't do it when he cuts back the field margins
  15. The sprayer is a fantastic model and would make a great centrepiece to your setup!
  16. Yeah the chassis are black and there's a photo in the 1992 Britains catalogue.
  17. Only £15 in total Bill. I'm pretty sure it's not an Autoway shell Sonny because those are much brighter yellow than this \
