Well boys, 9AM I was up for my NPTC Rough terrain telescopic forklift test. It was set in 3 parts

1- Daily Maintenance/Identifying key points on the machine

2- 2 hours of solid driving, doing bucket work and pallet work, undercutting, hi-lifting etc.

3- Half an hour theory session (very thorough)  :-[

All paid off, passed!  ;)

Good old Matbro TS270   :-*

damn things have changed  luke !  i took mine with 4 other lads from the farm ,all we had to do was move bales with a flat 8 from one side of the yard to another  :D :D1/2 hr later ,certificates in hand ,job done  ;D

Glad it all turned out well. I know what it feels like and it can be a real scare. Glad it all worked out!  :)

had to wash the car to attend Cathy's grandmothers funeral-(only time I wash the car.. :)) spent a lot of time catching up with many of the farming & other folk from that side of the family afterwards. Not so sad as it might sound....she was 95 and hadn't suffered long, though her husband died soon after I met Cathy 28 yrs ago. That's a long time to be on your own. :(

Fed the cows early to get dung spreading for around half nine but couldn't thanks to a great down pour of rain overnight meaning all fields we wanted to spread were sodden...... >:(

So then went off to the other farm to brick up the troughs in two pens as they had collapsed recently as they were getting older......The came back to bed the cows with the Massey Ferguson 165 and Bicieffe Bedder......Then fed them all again and finished for half four......

:);)
