Yes painter for a tractor registered in 1985 it is in not bad shape for a 24 year old. Peter never seems to trade in he just buys new tractors and keeps the old ones. I really must stop in past and get pictures of his Ford / IH fleet through the years

Yes I was on the road earlier than normal since I was wakened with the rain Rob. I didn't take  my usual route from Drumoak via Kirkton of Skene and then the Tyrebagger since The Haughs of Clinterty beside the agricultural college is notorious for flooding. I went from the Carnie roundabout to Kingswell park and ride and then over by Newhills to join the A96 at at the Propellor garage. The back road from Kindswells was ok until the narrow part and there was flooding on the dual carroage way from Forrit Brae.

Thats the problem with "progress" if thats what it called things get more complex and less easy to fix without having to plug in a laptop to tell you what the problem is. That's why I lke my old tractors from the 40's and 50's.Usually you can look and listen and work out the fault ;) ;)
