  1. Am loving this model mate... and a nice touch too... I am sure you probably know, but this model was based on my very own MF240 'Mavis' .. Andy has the original prototype I got for this before it came out on general release. I sold Mavis recently to someone who was desperate to make use of her. I'd not set eyes on her for well over a year so it's good that she'll actually give someone some proper service.
  2. Nice one Paul ... most of the 6480's I've seen with a loader have been the 966 ... it's actually a bit long in the beam for my 4 cylinder tractor in all honesty ... my 5480 had the 955 .. which I assume is a 956 now :/ ?
  3. They actually do a loader for the Isuzu pickup now mate too ! .. hmmmmm not sure why this is the wrong way round... sorry folks... put your head on one side please as my MAC refuses to rotate it
  4. makes a great deal of difference mate.. looks so much better with this extra detail added. I take it you are making it a 976 like the image ?
  5. They call them 'Snickers' I think there days Trissle .. Great model .. rubbish photography.. nothing changes hey beef-cake
  6. MASSIVE show mate .. I don't think you could name much that wasn't there in all honesty. I can't believe how big kit is getting these days ... Tractors almost at 700hp ! .. BONKERS really. Obviously I spent most of my time at the MF stand ... only popping out to go to the toilet at the John Deere stand
  7. Hundreds.. I went to LAMMA .. blooming good show it was too. Roll on next year I say !!
  8. Hi Paul.... was just having a look through .. but I don't have anything sadly... will get something up next week mate.
  9. Quick update here boys & girls... Penny is STILL with me.. living the life of luxury in one of the buildings at work.. she's still earning her keep by splitting logs and occasion powering my PTO pressure washer.
  10. Merry Christmas one an all !!

  11. Thanks all.. Paul... I'll do that mate... an MF string vest if there is such a thing. I must say my weight loss has made me feel so much better really and more importantly... now there is less of me.. I'm not such a target for the 'estranged' Mrs F and her high powered scub missles
  12. Thanks Bill... ever upwards mate.. well.. at least my overdraft limit is I've got a bit of a fitness bug at the moment mind you... so I do spend a lot of the time at the gym now... down from a tad over 16 stone to 12stone 3 today... new start.. new me and all that. Got to do something to keep my bloody pressure a bit lower than it has been of late. So I'll not be as frequent visitor as I have been in the past. I do miss the laughts this place generates I must say.
  13. Good question.. One I've had to face recently.. For me... Classic combines MF1200.. Er.. I think :/ no .... Wait... MF240 from UH ... No.... Ertl MF1105 ... Doh !
  14. You lot crack me up.. You've all been so very kind.. But the one person that's stood head and shoulders over all in my current 'mid-life crisis is dear Barry who sent me a string of long rambling texts.. All of which were some A1 insults.. The best one ending in... And I quote "but seriously now.. You really are a c..." Warms the very cockles if my heart does that.. Oh and someone please explain to old pops what that Limey expression means Now then.. I've moved out.. Brochures now installed... Broadband up and running.. Look out FTF I plan to be back as soon as I've worked out how to use this bloody washing machine.. Oh.. And does anyone know how to get the lid off a pot noodle ? ... Diane ? DIANE ? .. Anyone ? ...... Hello ? .... Hey that echos !
  15. Bless you all... I'm glad someone is worried about me. Truth is... I have indeed been a busy boy at work lately... and I've also had some 'trouble at t'mill' .. Mrs F is soon to become Ms F .. or at least the 'estranged Mrs F' ... I've been in the process of moving from my family seat to a new 'gaff' all on my jack jones (well.. for now anyway ) .. so in short.. I've either not had the connection.. or I've been busy at work.... or busy begging Mfs F to let me at least keep one of my MF socks For now I'll be popping in and out as the time permits... You'll just have to put up with old Bog Breath Pullover or Stinky trousers Plops
  16. Well done Jordan for getting a job buddy... I hope it all works out for you and I'm looking forward to hearing that you've been offered a full-time position after harvest. It's a pity some of of the other youngsters don't have you attitude towards working I must say.. fair play to you. Also.. It takes people like you to educate us older farts who think we know it all.. yes you still have a lot to learn... BUT... at 45 mate so do I !!! .. you are NEVER too old to learn... from anyone... now come and help my programme my bloody sky box please. .and show me how to reverse a trailer properly.. that'll do for starters Very best wishes to you
  17. Ha Ha...I'd not thought of pushing them up mate.. even better idea. and yes... that's the very last box mate.. go on... stick £500 on it
  18. ... Ooo I do hope so ! .. rejecting them would be good enough
  19. Word is.... the bloke on the internet part of the auction is mustard today Looking forward to this one I must say.
  20. Yes indeed a fair weather work commuter mate... and nippy about town as well I'd wager,, just need the great British Weather to warm up a bit
  21. thanks boys & girls... she is a stunner... and I agree on the seat cushion thing... BUT... with the old one gone there was no option really. Kev actually put that on before I had her I believe. And for once I agree with you Barry.... she is indeed, the best one in my current collection. I may well be having a 'thinning out' at some point in the future.. but I reckon Penny will be the last to go.. so she's pretty safe having Mavis and Little Mow in front of her in the queue. Ben... the MF12 is a lot smaller than this mate... it's a 100 series 'ride on' if you know what I mean... will get some images on here shortly for you.
  22. 'dress' to the other side Mike... sould balance things out... Although Mrs F said I couldn't balance a lapel pin
