Classics Earning their keep.

Had a slight technical glitch with the old 1394 the other day:

Shame I didn’t get a pic of the 255 tied to the front coming to the rescue.

The farm’s Disco 3 at the local garage for a new alternator. So they lent me this Y reg old girl for the day.

I’d forgotten how good they were/are.
Bloody uncomfortable down a bumpy track, but a good old workhorse, nonetheless.
I bet the New ones aren’t as reliable. I have a friend who has one and it certainly isn’t. But he is a dairy farmer!

Home made foam marker made out of old gas bottle. Compressor in cab blowing air into the bottom of the tank, which is filled with water and 'boutafoam'.
Bubbles exit through the top, down the yellow pipe into the squash bottle, where it collects untill it's too heavy and drops in a blob in the field.
Got the idea from ' Practical farm ideas ' (@farmideas )years ago, when someone did the same but used

an old fire extinguisher.
Cost me £30 for a decent 12v compressor and that's it. Cheaper and simpler than a GPS system.
