    Road planings

    Evening! Sign has just this evening gone up at the end of the drive showing the road will be closed later in the month for resurfacing. Anyone received some straight from the works recently? just wondered if it's still possible to get them delivered in - sure I saw some random H&S risk which...

    What's making ley look sick?

    This could be embarrassingly simple, but I'm a novice grass grower, so bare with me. Put a ley down in 2016 that yielded well for first cut then come second cut had developed orange growths on head and stem, which eventually led to the stem dying. Leaves also had blotches. This year the ley is...

    Stables and grazing

    I know the horse subject has been done before but I'm after some dos and don'ts! I've got 5ac pasture and 5ac newish hay/grazing ley with a fairly modern open fronted barn. As I work off site driving machines for other people I'm looking to maximise what I can get from my patch. I'd prefer to...

    Grass height sheep grazing

    I've taken on a few small fields of poor leys and was looking to reseed in the spring. Could do with it being grazed down tight by that time but the rubbishy grass etc is about 10" tall and very thick in the bottom. Would this be too tall for sheep and just get trampled down and make a mess? As...

    Swapping Loadall for loader tractor

    I know it might seem a bit of a backward step, but could do with something a bit more versatile. Machine in question is a 1999 530-70 with 4900hrs, new tyres, only thing that doesn't work is the fuel guage. At a guess its worth maybe 12-13k? Correct me if I'm wrong! Would like to do a straight...

    Nissan Pathfinder

    Has anyone run/is running a Pathfinder? How do you find it off road/on road and reliability wise? Looking at probably an 06-07 model to replace a 110, due to the need to do more motorway miles, but still needs to be fairly capable off road. This will be my first ever non-LR vehicle, so a bit...

    Any TD5 experts??

    Bought a Defender TD5 for a bit of simplicity after a nightmare of a Disco 3, but now having problems! Hopefully someone might be able to shed some light on it. First start in the morning or after a few hours it takes a few turns of the key to fire, and when it does it runs very rough for...

    JCB 530-70 won't start

    Our 530-70 starts fine all through the warmer months, but a sniff of cold weather and she seems to drain her battery and really labours to turn engine over, even when jump starting with spare battery. I've read somewhere about fitting a better started motor but can't find where, anyone shed any...
