Down on the Devon and Cornwall border for a break with Gemma so headed down to Lands end yesterday for a wander about the cliff tops.... Was surprised at the number of veg lads hauling with tractors and trailers up and down the A30....

Its more unusual to not see the veg lads in the a30 to be honest paul. Been many an accident with tourists and alikes ploughing  into the rear end of them . Theres one that runs a tracked jd as well old 8310 or similar which is pretty quick on there , but not really right for a 70 mph road in all honesty

I thought that Sean, see a lot of Claas, and a good few New Holland, some with the picking table gear on around the front of the tractor.  the odd Deere and a lone Fergy, but only maybe 3 of the trailers had flashing strobes on the rear.. rest just normal road lights, could see the HGV lads not liking it much especially around the bit of roadworks where they upping it to dual carriageway on the Launceston side of Hayle.....

they used to be pretty much all jd, but a new case dealer opened up,in fact they bought out one of the jd dealers branches out, and took a fair share, along with the class after hamblys opened another local branch they pretty much wiped out the jds with them, fergys are more common with the dairy guys this way

Called in at Dudley on our way home from our tour of Cornwall, Devon and parts of Somerset to have a wander about the Black Country Living Museum, bit like a smaller version of Beamish but unfortunately being set around Birmingham it's all industry and houses rather than Agricultural but nice place to visit
