Valley Axe Man Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 The morning after the day before ...... Yesterday was my second Stag do, courtesy of John JMD and Big Dave Steele with a bit of help off Thomas Woodhouse, we had a 78 mile tour of North Lancashire via tractor taking in a visit to a tractor collection and also a welcomed pie and peas stop mid afternoon. A great day with a good bunch of lads on some scenic roads... Only downside is what looks to be a leaky hydraulic hose on the power steering on the 804.... Get a proper look at it next weekend as it needs being right as it's my wedding transport for the big day in less than 3 weeks... Anyhow a few photos 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Valley Axe Man Posted August 11 Popular Post Share Posted August 11 Last few, including John and Big Dave.... Dave now no longer a stranger to Leyland 2100s, he had a spell on Thomas's to see what the fuss was about but decided to get back on the 6810 instead.... A great day with some great folk.... Cheers to Mark Strange on his narrow 135... He braved the rain first thing and is some commitment to do 78 miles on a narrow tractor he also supplied most of the photos..... 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye was a good day Justin with some good lads, even young Henry, like he a old hand didn't go racing away just steady away with the rest of us.. would have been nice to have had a couple more tractors out as it ended up a bit blue biased... Of the blue oval brand, but yes only 2 and a half weeks to go....... 🤣 Edited August 11 by Valley Axe Man 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blue one was off my other best Man Big Dave Steele, aye weather was good, made a great day after the damp start. In all honesty the rain didn't spoil the first stag do when we went quad trekking... The rain made it a bit muddier, better than dust and grit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Currently half way up the Irish sea heading to Glasgow then on out to iceland , way to much to drink last night after finding a lemon and basil martini drink (had 7 apparently) . Managed to see these sat on the dockside waiting for delivery i guess , and the jcb’s for export when we left 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Been into glasgow today, did spot a nh tx6? Combine working but the field looked more like a paddy field than a wheat field, also saw these little Landinis at the dock today, they have a hydraulic which's fitted to the front and are used to drag the ropes up to the mooring point, not see it done this way anywhere else before, lot easier to do given how big and heavy the ropes are 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
