MF-ROB Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 But things were not on our side as it was dry over here for weeks the well that we were all lifting out of was starting to run dry At this time my dad still wasnt back from work and we were starting to run out of water so my dad came on home with his lorry and the tanker that he lifts milk with.

Had a look last night at one or two or three ha ha! can you cast your minds back a few months when i was showing you guys the MF 390 with the duncan lift-off cab and loader well had a look at it well the rust on it ha ha! the cab is starting to rot from the floor up which isnt a good start. Then in the same yard we seen a lovely MF 5455 HI-VIS with loader but with a closer look someone who had it last must of tryed drive it into a low shed as the top part of the roof is out of shape so the search goes on \ \ \ but were in no hurry we have all summer to look as we wont need a tractor and loader untill we have to bring the cattle back in for winter housing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
