  5. Today I finally got into my fields of beans But not with the combine OH NO With a topper and chopped the lot up \ Wasn't worth the bother of harvesting them as they where so poor , So the decision was taken to cut our losses and chop em up Then went ploughing for a while Very hard going And to think only a few weeks ago it was too wet to plough \

    MF old girl

    Was driving this for a neighbour yesturday evening He's had it since new But don't ask how old she is as I don't know Was quite nostalgic driving it as we had a 65 but it died 18 years ago and it was a very good tractor
  9. I think that one of the main reasons f+s failed was the price of the mag itself considering that the content started out pretty good but then went more towards long winded articles about one or two types of models per issue spread out over half of the magazine and when you think that there was only usually about 24 pages you had read it from front to back in about 2 hours which left you wondering was it worth it. I did get evry copy that was printer But only because It was part of my hobby If I hadn't of subscribed to it and had to buy it off the shelf I don't think I would have after a few coppies as a trip down to WH Smiths on an afternoon I could have read anything interesting. The new mag that you talk about I have yet to find anywhere at the moment but I will keep serching Normal Appologies for grammer and articulation
  10. Well it was an old quary and what great fun we had too 15 quid + petrol for a day of absolute madness But great fun Supprising where them Suzukis will go
  11. Is it done like that for thatching as I've seen something similar round this way Doesn't smash up the stems like a combine Getting very rare to see it done this way nowadays
  12. It's all cleaned off and ready for the next time allready Don't believe in leaving it dirty as things sieze up on them too easilly
  13. Went for a little drive arround the country side ;D ;D Must have been a little bit of mud on the road
  14. Can't say that it annoyed me but it did upset me hearing about Colin Mcrae Seen him drive a few times and he was one of the best drivers this nation has ever seen RIP To a Much admired driver

  19. Only pull a dowdeswell dp8b 3 furrow as there is a lot of hilly and heavy clay land on the farms
  20. Pluffing and baleing Had problems with the baleing as it was too dry and wouldnt compact down enough and was too springy Still got on with some ploughing
  21. Most of the big balers are now set from within the cab on the computer On old style balers there was usually a slider and a bolt to adjust the lengh
