Hi Wrighty

Hope all is well.
If you know where there are any more PSKs like that could you give me the heads up, as long as its not on disc brakes.
I think I passed you on the A34 last week I will try to attach a picture so you will know next time.
Cheers Rich.

Morning Rich

The trailer was one of a pair but I think they were both on discs, will look out for you now I know what I’m looking for.
Tipping near Margate this morning then bound for Thaxted…

Cheers Wrighty.

Great picture of Brittany Ferries " Barfleur ". This ship is just approaching 30 years old. I sailed on Barfleur several
times from Poole to Cherbourg when she was still in Truckline livery and later in Brittany Ferries colours.
I will try and post this image on the Ro-Ro Ferries saction. Cheers, Ray Smyth.

Brings back memories, Buzzer

"Buzzer"Wrighty the weather all over the place at the mo, why the International do you have an a liking for the breed. The picture below is one of my first new motor bought but in its new home doing textile work to Morocco an easier life than it had with us on a fridge, Buzzer

Morning John

We ran nothing but International and latterly Case International at home when I was a kid, we had a Y reg 956xl 2wd and at the time it seemed like a big tractor. There wasn’t that many 6 cylinder tractors around our area in the early 80’s so it was always a favourite.
Sat here having another brew putting off going out in the torrential rain which is battering the windows, but i suppose we are going to have to man up and brave it…

Cheers Wrighty.

Wrighty ,Nice Case tractor which i assume replaces one of the older ones you have as you bought another Case last year or the year before from memory ?

Brings back memories, Buzzer

Buzzer, Paul Gee spotted one of those Michelin men for sale a couple of weeks ago and it was over £400.00 !!! It was brand new so i imagine they must
be getting rare to be selling for that money. :unamused:

Yes it replaced a Case IH 956xl which I bought in 2015, I sold that last March and purchased the fresh one which since then has been in the process of a full mechanical restoration. It is basically the same tractor albeit with a bit more power and more importantly a 40kph gearbox, Which makes it a lot more usable on the road.
Very wet and windy up ere today with a lot of flooding not ideal as we are starting to get a few lambs now, should make the drive to work in the morning a bit more interesting…

Cheers Wrighty.

Yes that’s right Buzzer It’s from Kevin Kingston near Chard, he seems to specialise in Case IH tractors especially the 56 series. Our bull is going to Leyburn on Friday, he will be in with the feeding bulls but will be advertised as a potential breeding bull so we will see what happens…

Cheers Wrighty.

SCATS or Southern Counties Agricultural Trading Society, with a full load, Buzzer

Hi All
