Hello everyone.
Was looking at that picture Shandy, have you stuck a face on to the picture, as there seems to be a white line around the edge before the hair meets the face... quite a pretty face

I should stress that isn't me on the tractor. I'm a 17st bloke with a beard.
I don't know if you should be embarrassed or afraid...

You sound like a few of my old countryside management and agricultural Lectures.. in which case i'd be afraid, they are quite scary when together.
oh and just realised nearly twice as heavy as me.. I'd be squished, even more afraid

No you don't Ginko, it'd only get stuck in the mud in these parts
We used to have a Fordson Model N - then we advanced to a grey Fergie

Hello everyone and thank you for the welcome.
I have a confession to make, I have been a lurker for ages and have picked up some really good ideas from here.
Our tractor is a little red fergie from the 1960s, never has any tlc but always roars into life when required
We have a few sheep, hens (mandatory surely!) horses and dogs. Also lots of veggie beds so always looking in the growing section

Looks like fun

Luckily, the council are going to clear the plot for me, saving me much back-breaking labour. Still... lots to do.
|
mochyn
|
But there are raspberry bushes and I think I can see blackcurrants: DON'T CLEAR THEM!
|
shandy
|
There are, I am going to ask them to leave these.
Unfortunately, this is the council we are talking about! Fingers crossed...
