BC Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The start looked good Marky things just seemed to go wrong after that. Never mind you may get a laugh at me ploughing this year. I have used a lift plough many years ago but this year I'm planning to have a go with my farmall Cub and a ransomes trailing plough at our annual local fun working weekend. Never tried a trailing one before so I'll be looking for some "old farmers" there to give me some guidance on setting it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one of the prize winners in the FTF competion this year. As for me well I ain't too hot with the camera but I hope I'm better with the ploughing!! Anyway the whole event is just a fun weekend and no competion or judging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
