I ordered a model from a retailer in Brexitland in July, it sat in Customs in Dublin until September and was returned to the sender because of a problem with the paperwork. I got it re-sent to a friend in Norn Iron in October and picked it up on Friday at Moira. It's a nightmare what those Brexit idiots have done to their country. They've effectively imposed economic sanctions on themselves. edit: I also got my MF inline baler kit sent to Norn Iron, and I picked it up on friday too. Wasn't taking any chances!

That oil reservoir on the 754 would make for a very bruising and uncomfortable day at work. Magnificent work yet again John.

On the way to Moira today there was a crew of Nordy boys hauling maize from the Republic on the County Louth section of the M1. No covers on the trailers, so the Motorway was covered in maized for about 10-15 miles. They're only supposed to carry on like that over in Blighty! Bringing back all their bad habits.

Stopped over in Dublin for the night, travelling on to Norn Iron in the morning. Who else is heading up?

I want them to anyway! 🤩

Daddy, it's not YOUR credit card, it's OUR credit card

You and me both

Late last night I thought I'd check a particular website before I shut down my laptop. Turned out they had an obsolete model I've wanted for a long time but have never seen for sale second hand before. 6 cylinder, 2wd, rare in real life, but there was at least one real one sold in Ireland. That really pleased me.

4755 and 4760 are the same tractor, for EU and US markets respectively. The upgrade from 55 to 60 (change of position of exhaust being the most obvious change) didn't warrant the paperwork for changing the model number in the EU.

My drive is five and a half hours, and I'll be four hours on the road when I'm passing through Meath

There's a story here. https://www.diecastrallymodels.com/t5867-my-gxi-9427-collection I'm not the only GXI9427 nut.

Those are something else. Well done. (My money is still on witchcraft)
