Has anyone claimed for FG12 wooden gates on CS schemes and run into problems with gates not meeting the specification set out? In particular, if you check the spec on most gates at farm stores or online, the top rail and hanging stile are smaller than the 100mm x 75mm specified. Am I worrying...

Our 2015 hiux. 3.0 engine is in for its mot. They can't put engine management light out. It's the dpf filter putting on they say. I've suggested the usual pikey farmers solution like removing the bulb and putting black tape over light. Anyone deleted it or any other solutions?

This evening I needed to move our Audi s3 Quattro in some compacted snow and up a slight incline to where we park the car by the side of our house . To my horror I couldn't get the car all the way up the slope as it just spun on the compacted snow. I am sure the rear wheels were not...

I’m in need of a new car, or new to me at least and looking at buying something capable of sharing the towing with my ageing Land Rover for the longer journeys, basically the luxury suv type, and something I can see over hedges more easy to see what everyone else is up to. Looking at something...

Land Rover 1980 Diesel Fuel Can anyone please tell me why the return hoses from the CAV distributor pump are 6mm instead of 8mm and would it matter if 8mm were used instead. I can't see the point of the return hose from the bottom of the dist pump to the banjo at the lift pump. What would...

As above. Have a twin bale spike with loose 30” tines. No way will they tighten or loosen with a 3/4” socket on the nut and a stilson on the square section of tine nearest the tapered bush. The 18” stilsons are grounded against concrete and there is no way a standard 3/4 drive tee bar is going...

The farm was split up many years ago before I bought it. The buildings and a couple of acres were sold separately which of course was soon turned into a separate dwelling. Planning permission has recently been granted for another of the buildings to be made habitable. There is a land drain...

Selfish me has converted their hay barn into a house. Doubt I will build them one for a few winters... So I've nowhere for hay this year. A friend suggested haylage as that could be stored outdoors... Another option would be get a tonne of concentrate each month and store the bags here and...
