Ah so that's where you have gone Kev : you have been conspicuous by your absence recently and I wasn't the only one that noticed ;) Have a good holiday but you will need a rest when you get home ;D

Crikey :of :of :of no wonder it took you an hour and a half to photograph it all 8)

Now that is random enough for Rick :of :of what has a Meryl Streep film got to with farm models \ \ \ or are you just a demon employer? ;)

I shall be logging off in a few minutes and off to Manchester airport, going for a bit of winter sun (hopefully) to Tenerife, I will be back on line next Sunday 8) 8) 8) 8) Byeee

I changed my mind about buying this beet harvester and I have ordered a hand built one from a member on here for collection at Spalding, costs a bit more but looks like a beauty 8) 8)

I wanted to find out about the older models that I had and what was now available so I was "googling" for Toy tractors. I came up with this site as a single page that said "site under construction" and saved it to my favourites, I then completely forgot about it for over a year \ \ concentrating on the "real" farming sites BFF and FWi. When I finally got back to the link it was already a thriving community and I like to think I have found some kindred spirits and friends on here, Mrs R still calls it my addiction and tractor porn ;D ;D

That is stunning Sean I don't suppose you would consider bringing it to Spalding in April for us mere mortals to admire in the flesh, so to speak \ \ \ From the pictures it is close to JDC's NH combine and we all know just how good that was :of

Not good Ben, I take that it was Leighton Hospital \ \ \ Hope the little man is getting better

I recently bought the Profarm Bonnell cultivator from Ebay through TopTractor, after 3 weeks I hadn't received it so I emailed and one arrived within days. I know others have had their problems with him and I have found him aloof in the past but I can't fault him this time. He emailed me and said that the Post Office had lost the first one which is why he sent the second. Dear robbo2011, Hi, i know i sent another as RM claimed they could not find the ist ? Cheers - toptractoruk Send him a message, you might get a favourable response \ \ \ \ \

Where have you been John, I'm going the other way on Saturday, off to Tenerife for a week 8) 8)

And even more points on the licence : :

Yes it is Paul, bought it off another member a few months ago ;)

Once the cabinet was built I was straight up the ladder and into the loft, a few have now seen the light of day but I can't put too many out or Mrs R won't let me buy any more....... and that would never do ;)

I tried that with a JD precision yesterday but didn't bid high enough so couldn't go back with a higher bid as time expired \ \ \ \ \ , I think I know who the seller was as well (Tris was it you?)

2 shelves for McCormicks, one the standard models and the second for limited editions Same's with my PDC Jaguar in pride of place and Fordies underneath And then various Fendts with the tracked models at the bottom As I said, plenty of room for more.......roll on Spalding ;D ;D ;D

So, as mentioned in the "what have you been doing today" thread, I have now got 2 cabinets. They look a bit sparse at the moment but at least there is now plenty of room for new purchases ;) First the overall view then shelf by shelf, 2 shelves for the JD's A couple for odds and sods plus one for the Masseys (just to keep Lord Fergie happy)

This could also go in the "what pleased you" topic as well. After some discussion last week about my collection and the number of models I have got in the loft Mrs R relented and I have been to IKEA and bought another cabinet so I have now doubled my display space. This afternoon was spent building it and then getting the boxes out of the loft and choosing what can now go on display, sometimes I think I am regressing to childhood : :

The problem I have is that I would like an original FTF bronze Valtra as I missed out when they were issued but I don't want to bid for " a pig in a poke" and get a copy \ \ \ \

Is this a copy of the FTF bronze Valtra or a real one \ \ \ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SIKU-VALTRA-T161-LIMITED-EDITION-BRONZE_W0QQitemZ110485803009QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_ToysGames_DiecastVehicles_DiecastVehicles_JN?hash=item19b9779001 Cashing in on FTF ideas or what?

Err yes...... what about it? have you done a conversion of one or are you just creating topics for the fun of it? ??? ???

I assume you mean the February issue of Profi magazine? I have only had a quick flick through but I always find the mag a good read to keep up with new developments

Gav how wide is your new harvester? If you are over 9'6" then you might need to notify the Police 48 hours before you travel as it will be considered to be an abnormal load and require escort. You can get away with it if you are travelling from the farm to the field, or the other way round, but a 150 mile delivery trip doesn't count.

Come on Atte you can't keep us in suspense, what on earth is a "tractor youngtimer"?
