After walking nearly 90 miles this week I thought I might go for a walk today

Irrigation.....AGAIN! Still not had any rain to speak of despite heavy showers being forecast yesterday, the two we did have gave us a whole mm of water, that's the first rain in over 8 weeks here!

It's getting serious in these parts Gav dads place have pumped one reservoir dry and now have a 13ton digger in there making it bigger

I have already got all 3 of the Siku colour variations and at least one UH version so I suppose I will have to have this just to make up the set \ \ \ \

I know what you mean Mike \  last count I had 68 Fendts

Nothing at the moment as I've just got a new 6 foot 8 inches worktop for £5 as it had a scratch on it, kicked her out of what was the utility room and now going to be my model room, just got to move all my stuff in it now

Nice one Mark, best thing I ever done was make my model shed   having your own space to work is great

Oh yes I have lots of ideas for that MB Trac l 8) 8)

I've had a lovely 'little' walk today   with my new rucksack on my back with everything in it i'm talking on the Pennine way next month

I walked from Ipswich to Stowmarket following the Gipping Valley path, link for details below.

At the moment I have my feet in a bowl  :'(

Looks like you've done a top job Jamie

I picked up a rucksack today ready for my week walking on the Pennine Way next month, i had my heart set on Osprey bag which was £90........I got a bag with similar features but a little smaller in Lidl for £17.99   just got to put some miles on it full of stuff to make sure it's up to the job

Well the Lidl bag only lasted one 12mile walk   so I took it back and put the £17.99 towards my new Osprey Kestrel 48, i found the 48 litre version online for £20 cheaper than the rrp on the 38 litre   with free postage and payment via paypal

The extra space means I can now take enough pants ans socks for the week

I had stock of these kits for sale at the Spalding show on Sunday and they sold very well, I have had a delivery of parts today which I have made up into kits this evening

Please PM me if you want one or send an order to pdcfarmmodels@hotmail.co.uk you can also pay via paypal at this address

I think it would make sense all round if Norscott badge the 'new' Claas as a 95E then everyone would know what they had

I'm looking forward to going back to work tomorrow for a rest   i've been modelling in the shed today from 8-8 and the same yesterday   got quite a lot ready for Spalding now though

It'll be the final push on getting thing ready for Spalding this weekend for me.

I know the feeling Mark   even got my mate coming round tomorrow to help

i need the mirrors as the first tms had the one arm fixing,so would still get the kit,but thanks for the reply

I have the mirrors and the decals you need Paul

I recently bought a couple of Fendt 718's of a forum member with no wheels

I sprayed some Siku John Deere 6920s wheels red and fitted them

bootnecks call that yomping paul, you joining the marines then ??  ;D

My 6 days on the Pennine Way is getting ever closer mate my shortest day is 12miles and the longest 21miles I have to 'yomp' has I can't find any hills in Suffolk

I've been working in the shed all day trying to get stuff ready for Spalding   I really need all day out there tomorrow but don't want to skip my weekly walk as my week on the Pennine Way is looming ever closer

IT was too nice a day to be modelling all day today   so I walked for three hours while my little girl was at pony club   the lady at the riding school said it would take four hours to do what I wanted to do...........2hrs 50mins get in!!!!! 10.3miles

So if you fancy building one of these your self I have decals (blue/yellow TM120,140,155) roof, mirrors and fan weights (white metal just slot in)

I would love to go there as most of the tractors have cabs   i'm not a great fan of older stuff

All the conversion parts are in stock now

I've been working in the shed all day trying to get stuff ready for Spalding   I really need all day out there tomorrow but don't want to skip my weekly walk as my week on the Pennine Way is looming ever closer

Well I now have all the prices and packaging sorted for the MF 6480 Transkit

The price of the complete kit is to be £15 so you sort be able to build a tier 11 6480 for £30

You'll even have a small plastic box to keep small spares in when you've finished

I have been out walking today   about 12 miles in just over 3 hours got a proper stomp on with just a quick stop for a pint of Adnams half way round

Spent all day modelling yesterday building stuff for Spalding

Nice work Johny....makes me think I should cast the Britains bonnet and sell bonnet kits
