Of course, no problem. ... Erm where will I find it?  :-\

It is a great shame to see some of these machines go abroad I have to admit. A few people showed interest in it but backed out. That side of things I'm afraid I do not get involved in, I just collect and deliver. It's nice in way the people who have bought it have bought it to do the job it was built for at least, it won't be cannibalised or similar. Another photo opportunity I must get is a superb bubble cab Ford TW-10, it's mint!

The plate is either on the front left cab foot plate or on the inside of the rear wings,

Thanks :)

Thanks mate, yeah I do take a certain amount of prowess in cutting those hedges. Bit different to jut doing field sides. Should be on hay again this week so look out  ;)

Nice pictures Tris, looks like you had fun with the 600's  ;D ;D  surely everything is for sale at the right price?  ::)

Got one of the plate for you, I'll pop it up later on. The tractor itself is a bit blocked in to photo, I'll get a few when I can though.

Picked up this pretty tidy 595 last week near Tuxford. After that we trundled on up to Doncaster where I loaded up this very tidy little DAF and the other chap drove back an equally tidy MAN. Both ex-parcel delivery, tautliners with tail lifts. As far as I know the MAN is sold already!

A couple of pics of the lorries awaiting the next sale.

Nice old ERF 8 wheel tautliner in the line up too. Oh and a couple of out the window shots on the way home. Weather was very strange towards the end of last week. Heavy, short, sharp showers but very ghostly low grey cloud.

The plate on the County for Howard, the tractor is a bit boxed in for photos so I'm still waiting for a clear shot!

The TW-10 which I think is pretty fanciable!! No PTO apparently but other than that. . . well just look at her!! And the first of this years hay, delivered to Wales under a sheet this time, I have another load ready to take tomorrow.

Some views from the Aberaeron area of Wales, the sea!!  :) :) :) This has been a regular journey since last November I think it was. A love it. M4 is boring but from Camarthen onwards and back to Camarthen it's lovely.

Damn right it's green, if it isn't as good as that it doesn't get sold. Too many people leave their hay out too long and it bleaches out. This stuff if lovely. Driving up through Lampeter town centre it smelt looooovely  :) :)

A trip to Tilbury docks saw me deliver this little Volvo with a 690 strapped in the back. As well as old stuff there are rows upon rows of Hyundai cars. . . . and diggers  8) 8) 8)

This trailer caught my eye as it was in discussion in the yard the other day. Extends in the middle, pull out rear light bar, rear lift axle and a set of hydraulic rams behind the swan neck so you can drive a tractor unit onto the swan, then raise the ramps and another unit can be reversed up underneath the ramps. S-M-A-R-T!!

A dealer, Sean. He has one load last year and a few more were sourced for him. He was so pleased with the load from Howards he has booked the lot this year which could be 12,000 bales.

My return load from Cheffins again, 290 with a weird cab, 690 with no cab and two 165's. Oh and on the other side was a rotovator.  :)

Stationary A1 after the A14 was closed thanks to a crane driver deciding to exit the road via the embankment! Hope he was alright, that's a big thing to roll!  :-\ Traffic all around Huntingdon was a night mare. Thankfully I had stopped at Marks for a box of veg and a Big Dave special so I didn't get hungry.  :P:) :)

Very satisfied customer down near Street with a reconditioned MF590. He was well chuffed with this, so would I have been. It was a stunner. I reckon Tim would like this one.  ;):) It will be used mainly on a rotovator.

Couple of other squatters in the yard, a very genuine JCB and a very original and fine looking County turned up again too, that's two in he yard now!
