Deere-est Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I had a meeting with a very nice man Again What are you buying Scott? Today, spreading all day. Johns tractor has a reoccuring puncture which showed up again at 7pm so I carried on spreading solo. Just started raining. . . Also there should be 860t there. So far we have spread 950t and there's at least 150t still to go. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
