Inside the cab, nice chrome dial surrounds, radio and joystick control, all a vast improvement over our old heap of........ :D

Powerful machine that will lift 3500kg and travel at 40kph on the road

Yet another new piece of kit bought for us to use is this nice little number, been rounding up oat straw with it today and don't want my old 525-67 back thats on the other farm now.

Not paid much attention to it yet Martin, will have a look tomorrow though. I know my colleague has only had a 5 minute look at it as well, but counted 140 grease nipples in that time :o

Just to show how tall these trailers are, here's this one on our old NH 8560

back end of trailer

I know, more to follow as well. It sure is, Bunnings are actually closer to us than Ben Burgess but we can't buy direct from them \

I've yet to see another make of trailer with the same amount of steel and build quality that these ones have

Another of our contract farms new purchases, they don't like old stuff in their yard so they've bought 2 top of the line 18 ton grain trailers with roll over sheets, floatation tyres, hydraulic tail doors, and one with ABS and air brakes for the new JD6920 auto power

Don't think i will as its a one man one tractor farm there, might do though u never know

A brand new NH TVT175, still waiting for it to arrive though

One of our contract farms has bought us some kit to use this year, one of them being this 4m Vaderstad system disc drill which was delivered yesterday. My collegues are giving it weary glances and have nick named it the Very-stuck due to the wet nature of the farm :D

You can see what i meant when i told you about the horrible little things yesterday when i was chatting to you now then :D

He's down in south Norfolk, not too far off the Suffolk border i don't think

I'll let you off then :D I'm the youngest one and i'll never turn down a course if its offered to me, will even pay for them myself if it means i stand a better chance if i change my job

I'm not that old Sean! We all start at the bottom, but when you get to my age you could be setting fields on fire with the combine as well :D :D

I did warn you it would be a hot job, you're at the bottom of the ladder but i think you'll find that your boss will be very fair about it. He'll probably let you have some breaks with the heat or you'll be ill with heat stroke and no employer wants a man off during harvest

He's got his head in the clouds again i do believe :o http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OBSOLETE-Britains-Sanderson-Fork-Lift-Truck-JCB-9513_W0QQitemZ300004058856QQihZ020QQcategoryZ117196QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
