You work that 362! That's a cosy little Britains setup, keep the updates coming.

I like the pickup you have on the JF 800 forager

I put my back out attempting to free a trapped car, now I can hardly bend at all

Uncovering some more maize,..............2 of us,1 shovel, 1 scraper,.......about 9 inches of snow and like a bloody skating rink up there. I hate to think how difficult it must be for farmers further up country with a couple of feet or more, of snow on top of the sheets.............. :(

Would a leaf blower or two come in handy here? \

Besides the usual cow feed/muck, I helped gather up two sheep to take to slaughter. This required taking the livestock trailer across snow fields '& down (frozen) tracks and inevitably the series 3 landrover found itself almost 'hull down' in a giant puddle. we needed 2 chains, 2 shackles, 1 David Brown and 20 minutes of idiocy t pull it out. 

All good experience tho

taking Harry out to some playgroup thing near Linton, and to see his little friend!....well it is his 1st birthday!!! ;D ;D ;D

Dipping into this topic a while ago I thought "Harry" was a pet name for your tractor, and you would occasionally take him on an 'outing', but something seemed amiss when you tried teaching Harry to say his first words.. 

Snowed in and no digital tv reception 

This is exactly what I had in mind to display my Britains models. May I ask where you bought your glass shelves?

And that Vanderstad drill looks huge compared to the older Britains!

It's only been snowing for an hour or so and I'm already effectively cut off from civilisation 

Excellent I love the DB's, but get those pictures sorted! 

Mandy's sacks & tools are a perfect match with the old Britains garden stuff, plus the new Fords look right at home!

More frustrated than really annoyed but some cattle and calves escaped from their shed pen today so i had an evening of fun chasing them about by myself for a good 40 minutes...

Feeding cows & pulling leeks for free, scraping & salting the drive for nowt and hoovering for zip.

would be good  to have some nice looking (fit) girls too

I don't know, I thought the Britains potato picker lady was quite shapely, I have several of her cloned 

Britains Ford 5000 late production model (5000 stickers & wheels but with 6600 casting)

Family meeting up in Rutland today, on the journey through the county I noticed numerous fields with lines or sections of uncut cereal crops on field margins or occasionally dividing plantations. I'm curious if these would be used as some sort of cover crop or for conservation purposes?

Finding my yellow mf200 tipper is actually red, and filling in *""@|^*'''''* Jobcentre forms  :'(

First go at hedge laying down at the farm.

Yellow MF200 trailer at last (I hope) with BM valmet both for £9.70!

hello i was needing help because i was looking for the kind of rivet pins? the ones Britain's normally use for the steering of the tractor etc. Does any one know where to get these ?

I think I know what you're referring to; no replicas have been made of these to my knowledge so you'll probably have to dismantle an old model to get at the pin. What tractor is it?

This blue fold-up cultivator http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130347616618&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Ploughmaster/Super6 etc, can anyone tell if this is the foldup from the 1989 NH set or the later 05/06 "Farm Set" with the brandless baler and red (?) John Deere, fences & cows?

First day (morning) of a new routine, limited this time of year to feeding bedding & mucking out a small herd of mostly Hereford & 1 shorthorn (& 1 sow)

Lone Mccormick mtx 135 with post knocker and yellow Twose front forks.

Yesterday I had something lined up but it never happened cause the boss cut off his thumb! Well most of it.
