    Butler Empire Carnivore Diet

    This chap used to harp on about air fryers cooking all sorts of crap, but he got ill last year and now has embraced the carnivore diet. He does go on a bit, but it's a really good message for the livestock industry.

    Vehicle towing limits

    Just wondering about the justifications for vehicle towing limits. Last week I took a couple of steers in with my Freelander 2 and IW trailer. To be honest I was probably (!) close to the limit as it has a towing capacity of 2 tons. However it went like a dream, I hardly noticed the trailer...

    Dropbox

    I had a hard disk failure on my PC and have lost all my Dropbox files on the disk. They are still on Dropbox, but for security I would like to download them back to a hard drive. There are a lot of files, about 700 gb. Does anyone know of a way of downloading the entire Dropbox content?

    Strange call about tractor survey

    Just had a call from a surveying company about our tractor buying. Was offering a £20 voucher else I wouldn't have bothered. Asked which brands we had, then asked which we would consider next time, he reeled off a load of tractor manufacturers, I told him the ones I may be interested in, but...

    Yet another anti meat rant on radio 4

    You and yours just on, some prat saying that meat and dairy cause 18% of emissions, more than all transport, and bacon is as bad as cigarettes for cancer. Of course no regenerative farmer on to reply. Just looking in the garden for my radio!

    Kubota M151 Ad Blue injector

    Anyone got any leads for an Ad Blue injector for a Kubota M151, V6108 engine? We need one and Kubota wants telephone numbers as usual. (They put on a 400% markup when we needed an air conditioning compressor last year!)

    Off grid electricity

    I need a small amount of 'mains' electricity, around 800 to 1000 watts off grid, all year round. Can anyone recommend a system or supplier that would do this, presumably using solar, wind, and batteries? There seem to be so many cowboys in this industry it's a job to see the wood from the trees.

    Christmas Boxes

    Just thinking, back in the 80's, when tractors were £10 to £15000 the dealer would give you a bottle of malt, chocolates for the wife, and bottles of wine for your tractor drivers. Fast forward to 2022 when tractors are £100,000 plus you are lucky to get a calendar!

    Groundswell camping

    So I have gone mad and booked a two day ticket, and, I thought, paid for camping with my camper van. Just turned up and the nice girl with red hair and several rings through her nose said that I had only paid for a live in van, not to live in it? Who the bugg4ry bollox would pay to park a...

    Voicemail on 3 phone.

    Anyone know how to turn off voicemail on a '3' phone? I never asked for it, I don't want it, but it appeared a few months ago. I have searched the web, spoken to a nice man in India, and even gone into a '3' shop. It goes off for a day or two, then comes back on again.

    Looking for a PTO clutch

    Hello, I'm after a torque clutch, or clatter clutch, or cam clutch (whatever it's called!) for the PTO of my compost turner. It is six spline, but the bigger size six spline, ie bigger than a normal tractor PTO spline. It is rated at 2500 nm. The manufacturer is abroad and difficult to deal...
