last night a rather drunken wife rang me, she had slipped of the track and was stuck in the field ( in the car sadly otherwise I could have left her )
Any I got out of bed and trundled down in the pickup, Anyway all that was needed was extended suspension height and a bit of bravado and the RRS easily powered out of its semi stuck state


guess who gets to wash the car today


and both tractors to wash after a rather more serious episode of a tractor sinking to its axles in a wheat field , twice
At least I got to play with my new 32tonne wire rope At work

That depends. Round here tractors are only slow on narrow roads at weekends. Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto

The full sized alloy spare tyre was begging to be used but a matching set of tyres wasnt available

its not like mixing cross plys and radials, tyre fitter saw no reason to not mix



while we are looking at my pics can you guess what this beauty is?

Bed for the combine?

Something you broke dragging it behind your tractor and had to weld up with bits that all farms seem to have lying around in the yard? GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver
