:D :D  .. thanks Unk.. I've had 'an anonymous tip off' as to what other hidden treasures live in Unk's MF collection .. I won't say who, as I promised Cerin Mr X I'd not let on  ;):P

damn  :-[:-[

I reckon Classic Massey Magazine would pay me thousands for a scoop like this... well... at least a tenner and my bus fair home and a bag of chips anyway  :P :P

Who is that rolling? Looks like Rob ... :of

Now about Markys visit. He could help level the slope with some of his excess carrots then we'll send him round to Aunty Joan's for his dinner. After that, he could horse-whip the Maggot and then round the day off a tiny weeny little ride on your hidden and hardly ever shown collection of vintage pristine Masseys. What? oh, sorry Bruv,  I thought you had told him about those .... :-X

After a final check on the levels and a scrape about and a bash down with rolly...

The answer to the question about getting the pipe under the road,.....Dwayne was right about the  first item.....

Then these three were pulled through in order of size....

1.....A small emergency oxygen tank from an aeroplane

2.....An old accumulator from the smoothride system of an early Scorpion

3....An old cast iron 28 pound weight,...the weight went thru first but was exactly the same size as the 6"pipe

      so I cut a scrap Bauer 6" coupling up and the collar fit perfectly over the weight.....,took a bit more pulling

      through with this on..... ;)

Having two weeks off now,....down Cornwall.

I have a secret spy to keep an eye on things if this huge erection starts while I am away....... :of :of :of :of :of .. ::) ::)

Will post more when things start to happen...... ;) ;)

very nice!!, glad you got no real objections to the new plans after 20years!!!, can understand the door colour, looks nice green anyway!!

just curious, who did the drawings?, specialist barn supplier?......only ask as i kinda do this day in day out and often look for private work here and there!

Forgot to post this earlier,....the plans were drawn by www.choicesteel.co.uk Ben,if thats any help.... ;)

Jo! :of   

I assume you mean the builders may get it totally wrong.

(Auntie Jo, you must not make such comments as the boys will take it as an opportunity to be VERY naughty).
