mb86 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Looks like a collector with the tidy dexta and major under the tarp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll need to go back there sometime,there were a fair few Whitlock " Dinkum Diggers" in his yard as well,may well be Ex BAA,that would probably explain why the wheel nuts have white lines painted on them to see if they have slackened.

BC Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I was at Scone Joe but I'll have to admit I did not get any photos of the County stand...only photos of the ring parade and the yellow one was not in that. I will make enquiries since the County Club will have a ploughing weekend in Aberdeenshire next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mb86 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Is that what you tell the birds? Those whitlocks bring back memories, and not fond ones i might add, I used to feed the cows with one before I went to school, still have the bloody thing in the back of a shed, it had the back actor taken off and a concrete block in its place. It's an a reg so think it's older than those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
