Just picked this lot up - an absolute bargain i think!

Well done Dwayne

I thought this was quite a lucky grab: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120575510806&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I had the same colour stickers on my skateboard in the 80s! 

I've read that in this recession women's spending on cosmetics and skincare has actually increased -perhaps it is the same with men and their hobbies ie. a determination not to let a lack of money intefere with something you enjoy/deem important?  ...hm just an idea \

What a lovely p.... cat!  :D

I can see that terrorising the other pets of the house, mind. I bet she'll be a bundle of fun 

Yes I fear the *fun* is only just beginning \ . They like the name Holly, named after someone I worked with a few years ago (only cause I couldn't remember the other girls )

Anyone go to the Royal Bath & West show today or planning to in the next 3 days?

My brother's girlfriend came back with this yesterday:

She's only 4 weeks old but abandoned by mother and siblings and preyed on by the farm toms. I'm really not sure if it's a good idea yet as we already have a cat and dog who both hate cats, but unfortunately everyone else is smitten  \

The L200 blew the oil seal and bearing in the turbo with a new turbo looking at £700+ :'(  just when moving house perfect so harvest money gone already! Its going to sit there now till I fix it then its GONE!

Generally how reliable are these Mitsubishi pickups? I can't decid whether I want one of these or a Toyota Hilux. (sorry about the italics I can't seem to reset it)

Malvern Toy Collectors Fair later so i better get some shut eye.

all the summer jobs in agriculture saying experience needed. ok so i have no experience, but give me a chance and i'll learn! gods sake!

That's the trouble I'm having Alex, it's a bit of a catch-22 isn't it?

Falling out of my car and down the drive, only a scar on my elbow to show for it fortunately. :'(

  git    :D

I bet it was those bloody wafers that did it as well  :D

Not surprised, one wafer is typically heavier than my Honda Izzy (33kg)

Is the 110-90 NH/Fiat quite a common sight in Ireland?, I've never seen one in the flesh before.

Very interesting

I'm sure the last I heard it is due late autumn  \ .

Circa Toytrac one hopes,  \

You lucky **** 

Last year's Simmental AA Cross Heifer

Handsome but odd colouration! I thought if you crossed anything with an AA, the offspring would be mostly AA black with characteristics of both parents?

A few more additions this week

Land Rover and Ifor Williams Livestock Trailer Set

I was thinking of getting this but opted for the trailer on its own as I couldn't wait. What is the landrover like, is there a driver?

I won an Fordson New Major (172F) off ebay also lacking 1 mudguard! do you plan on restoring yours?

Not unless I find another mint original mudguard! And I'm unsure wheather or not to put repro decals on, I sort of lean toward the camp who prefer to keep their models in original condition whatever that may be. What do you think?

Hello Chris - sorry to hear that you have been having a difficult time too. best wishes from Jo

Thanks aunty Jo.
