Tractorman810 Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Yeah it will joe, doesn't bother either of us, have been in worse before. Did have a spell an hr or so ago, vicious squall , 15 mins long , place cleared right out , few people panicking staff trying to calm them . Recon it was a 30ft swell, proper thumping all the time as we went through, were sat here having a glass of wine and a larger talking to the bar staff 😂😂😂 no point going out if you can not deal with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Joe Dewar Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Good for you, I used to get some hairy crossings going Cairnryan to Larne, I always found if you couldn't see the horizon you never felt the effects quite so much, Regards Joe.

Valley Axe Man Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Had a day out yesterday at the Hodder Show... Last local Ag show of the year... A few nice tractors there, including a honest looking Nuffield universal and a equally tidy Leyland 2100.... As well as a Standard fordson that looked an ongoing project fitting a Perkins 6 pot... Be a similar conversion to the E27n I'd have thought... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its very different in each place, we were in a snow lined valley saturday yet the day before was nothing , its all around the edges and very little inland , apparently its mostly a volcanic ash desert 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Was a local-ish silage day yesterday at Galgate near Lancaster, I was unable to go but a good mate from up at Wigton brought his 802 and Jag 40 down for a play, Andrew and his dad used this combination back in the day and Andrew spoke to me last night and said it felt good to bring back some memories, bit of a regret that I couldn't have made the day yesterday.... But couldn't be helped Messenger_creation_EA12C356-9714-4A75-9543-AC99251704CD.mp4 Messenger_creation_FD3379C3-111C-47F0-A4FA-5260A8313AAE.mp4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Had a run out with the 804 yesterday along with John JMD up to Wray on a 70 mile round trip with a couple of other local tractor lads to the Wray tractor show . Not big event by any means but always does a bit of good for local charities, this year raised £590 for the Northwest Air Ambulance.. a few photos but lacking one of my 804 as forgot to take one 🤣 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
