Yeah, I got that as well

I was wondering about this after doing my PA2 at college. How much is a yearly subscription then Gav and would it be useful to a younger person like me?

If thats the lorry i think it is there is another photo going round on facebook taken from the front.

Finally finished maize at college yesterday and then went to see some being combined this afternoon.

Brian (Mr Softie's) ongoing list of recent purchases.

You could be right about the Big Bud, it looks like one that was restored in Classic Tractor a few years ago.

If anyone is going tomorrow, i would like to know the final price for the mf165 if possible.

Getting stuck

Ros Grimme GT170 spud harvester Marge 7610 Gen2 4wd Britains JD 990 baler Grassmen 4 and Axmen series 4 dvds

Im pretty sure 710 is the width and i think 70 is the height. Not sure on the R42 but im sure someone will know. P.s to the someone who knows please correct me if wrong

I think the list was posted on here on the 12th of October last year

Do you mean like this http://www.britainstoyfarm.net/90275/info.php?p=7&pid=3144170&ack=9 Or this http://www.britainstoyfarm.net/90275/info.php?p=7&pid=3144167&ack=9 Beaten to it

I think this is the one you mean?

Slowely going on around here. We have had all of our barley bales delivered and Lackham have the combine in some of their wheat by us today. I believe i can also see a combine header waiting at the headland of some wheat fields on the other side of the farm.

Seems to be going on well around here. Had our first 2 loads of barley straw delivered today

I hope to make it as a spectator/buyer.

Interesting point about the power Tris. I wonder how long the tractor that was once used on our home clamp ( 2wd Ford 6600 many many years ago) would last clamping for a modern forager before the driver gave up.

I thought it probably was

His 7030 clamps for the other forager. before that it was a TM175 and before that it was a TM165 but that was before the 434.

And another thing I've noticed is that the combines Ive seen harvesting maize over here(all 2) have both had 8 row headers, not the huge ones that seem to be used on the britains models. Back on topic, hope this goes well for you Paul, only small changes but im sure it will improve the models realistic look.

I think that you are right in your guess that forage wagon silage would be harder to clamp, at least it was when we had some done, due to the longer length. We used a JCB telehandler at college but we had a bigger clamp with a tractor rolling at the same time, but even with the long haul, I dont think a telehandler would have done anywhere near as good a job rolling. I think another factor againt telehandlers is that they generally have a lower ground clearance so I would think they would struggle to climb the clamp more.

Same here Chris and I guess the same in many other places. Lets hope we get some decent sunny spells soon.

I guess you mean ones like this? I'm not aware of any mainstream manufacturers making them but I did see these custom built ones at Toytrac one year. Someone else on here may know who they were made by.

The man that has decided he has the right to walk out through our fields and let his dog run all over the crops chasing an arrow, especially when the footpath is clearly marked and all of the stiles on our land are well maintained.

The awkwardness of young cattle. If they were to find a small hole in a hedge they would soon (in my experience) make it big enough to squeeze through but give them a 12ft open gateway and they just stand there moo-ing, even when its a field of fresh grass on the other side.
