Evening benkku…in a moment of need,… today I have purchased a Valtra…wish me luck…(but she sounds quite nice)!!!
Cheerio for now.

Evening benkku…heavy , (and I mean Monsoon ), rain here today. So this old fool climbs into his new Valtra…switches on, and drives out of the yard, 500metres later ALL, the warning lights come on!!! 1000metres later they all go out!!!
benkku I believe you, but I was desperate for a tractor, and this one was “affordable”…but the engine pulls well, and is really “sweet”
Best Regards…keep your fingers crossed for me…I`ve put the Hedge Cutter on her for tommorow!
Cheerio for now.
Think of all the little birds in their nests John, oh dear you will have the RSPB after you.
Cheers Dave.
Hi Dave, no its the end of July, and I will not start on the hedges untill August! Heaven above Dave, Ive a "Larson trap" here that has done good service this year! (I hate the Magpies, and the destruction that they wreak on the song birds) Im afraid that I hate the birds of prey…with a vengance! We have raised several hatchings of Partridge, (even if they eat my Beans)! But I have to get the hedges cut, particularly on the road sides, for we have very narrow lanes, and too many "townies " with 4x4s!!!

Yes it does annoy the farmers this way that they cannot do any hedge cutting until August John. One or two cut their roadside hedges before the Royal Welsh Show because they think other farmers will be impressed. Not to many magpies around here now. I think the Goshawks have slackened them, far to many Buzzards here, the odd Red Kite. We do need the hedges cut, there has been a lot of growth on them this year. Was just testing you before.
Cheers Dave.
