  1. The answer is probably "lots" as long as it is Rioja
  2. Ok your wish is my command
  3. Seen on the beach today, not a make I have ever heard of before
  4. Paul, I have a similar problem and it has been like that for quite a while and there only seem to be a few people who are affected. The way round it is to find the person that you want to send a message and hover over their name, that will open a dialogue box and you can then select "message" from there, that way it will open the message box correctly and you will be able to add text
  5. Absolutely mint Ford 7810 seen today
  6. I have the yellow version listed as a 512C Pieper Edition, the 514C was the orange Kommunal Edition
  7. I didn't know that there were so many variations of the 515C or others, nice collection
  8. I came across a woman driving the wrong way along a dual carriageway yesterday, I assume she was follwing her sat nav, she did have quite a shocked look on her face but that is a classic Sean
  9. Nearly got run off the road by a Krone Big X today closely followed by an NH and rotor rake and a Case and silage trailer, about 1/2 mile behind were 2 Masseys one of which had a buckrake on the front and both towing silage trailers. I did wonder if the Krone was CrevisbigX aka Ben as I know he works in that area but it was coming at me too fast to look at the driver and boy, it is a big beastie
  10. In its day the IH 674 was a big tractor, 78hp and was the prime mover on quite a few farms round here. It was the largest of the World Wide Series at the time. It's amazing how small it looks today and no more than a yard tractor for most people
  11. Meaty, beaty, big and bouncy and I like it (with apologies to The Who for plagiarising their album title)
  12. Couple of old Fergies today, the 390 seems to have quite an unusual cab, is it a low profile version?
  13. Another for what really made you laugh today. The headline in one paper this morning, "Polar Bears spotted in Scotland as animals flee the melting Polar Ice Cap", oh yes, it's the first of April isn't it and time for all the daft made up headlines that some conspiracy theorist will spend the next 6 months insisting is true it must be true, it was in the paper!
  14. Some of the others in daily use. The MF 20E belongs to his friend and he is storing it with some other plant for him
  15. Had to call at a farm in the foothills of North Wales today and he was happy to show me his working classics. His prime mover is a Deutz DX110 which he has owned for 14 years and says it still pulls like a train. His son has been "doing up" a Ferguson TEF that was seized and in hedgerow condition and is now doing a DB 1412
  16. Don't remember seeing this one in your collection David http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ERTL-STEIGER-cougar-1000-TRACTOR-1-32-SCALE-COLLECTOR-ISSUE-1990-4-wheel-drive-/112330507901?hash=item1a276b867d:g:A~0AAOSwol5Ywq0F he has got a few others up for sale but I think you may already have them
  17. More "what made me laugh" today, I was sitting at my desk and I started to hear some tap tapping coming from the kitchen. I looked across to see a Blackbird viciously attacking its own reflection in the window, puffing out its chest to make itself as large as possible and giving itself really dirty looks to try to intimidate this interloper
  18. Most of the other Renaults were UH but the Ares 636 was made by Joal although it is also in the same dealer box
  19. I remember having a conversation with Sean and David a year or so ago (Zwolle I think) and saying that the UH Renault 836 was quite rare, especially in the dealer box. This is the first one I have seen since then and the price tends to support my theory. Looks like I am not the only one who thinks it to be rare. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNIVERSAL-HOBBIES-1-32-RENAULT-ARES-836-RZ-TRACTOR-BRITAINS-SIKU-Claas-New-/172530436536?hash=item282b9d89b8:g:dPgAAOSwfVpYocq4 The 936 is as common as muck and there are several variations but the 836 is something else, Gav836 must have had a hand in this
  20. I wish I had never brought this up now The 69/75 argument was done to death about 2 years ago, please lets not go over this again I anyone does feel so strongly about it that they need to pontificate about it then can you start another topic in the Wiking models area, this section is for Ebay
  21. Does anyone remember when the Wiking JD 6930 came out there was a huge argument about the bonnet shape and whether it should have been badged as a 7530 instead. Various people were posting pictures about the humped shape of the bonnet to prove or disprove their own theories. It would appear that people don't actually care and they just like the model the way it is. (which is why I didn't get involved in any of the discussion at the time, I just like the model).
  22. I like the Fiat shelf but you really have too many of those nasty blue things
  23. According to the latest update from Andy you should now be able to log in the forum through Facebook so that might help to move photos across between the two platforms...........just don't ask me how to do it though please
