A big thank you to Oiltreader, I have no idea how you turned this lot upside down, I was’nt able to on this on my iPad. As you said the do look better this way up.
You have to do it on a laptop or desktop ,iPads are limited. Probably possible, but I haven’t found a way yet.

Hi Dave , Talking of Lime spreaders I noticed a tractor and power take off driven spreader driving past my house a couple of times the other day. It was originally owned by a local haulier and lime spreading contractor who has retired but maybe still does a bit of spreading. What caught my eye was the lettering on the front of the trailer “LANDRIVE TRAILER” and the contractors name painted on the side. These powered trailers were developed by a small engineering firm at Rowanburn just over the Scottish border in what is known as the “Debateable Lands” as the English and Scots fought over this district for hundreds of years These were the original Border Reivers. Getting back to the trailers they were quite effective on soft ground and this one must be at least 40 years old if not more. The contractor in question was from Bewicks home district.
Cheers, Leyland 600.
Hi Leyland600,
Ivor Duggan &Sons down this way use land drive spreaders behind Fendt tractors. Ivor ran Massey Ferguson tractors for years,as nothing else was suitable for land drive. One of my old bosses Clarence Griffiths had a land drive spreader on a Massey Ferguson 65 tractor spreading lime when I drove for him in the late 1960’s.
Cheers Dave.

I think tipping into it off ramps would be a no no Oily.
Cheers Dave.
I would guess they are ahead of schedule with the southbound carriageway of the A9 Kessock Bridge re-surface much better weather compared to last year at this time when the northbound was done.

Hi Dave
Takes me back to my youth on the farm and a machine like this pic, bagged lime tipped in, the same machine was used for spreading slag, hell all mighty that was some job to wash off a sweaty skin.
