Farmer strongly believed that you had to talk nicely to the Lister elevator or it would not start.2.Facemasks - the gauze pads with the alloy faceplate,Good O'le Boy wore one,but made a hole in it for his fag :) 3.Gladstone,James - a collection of his columns from Big Farm Weekly were published in a book - "Up Country with James Gladstone".4.Howard was taken on by Dowdeswell in happier days. 5.Kidd straw chopper - getting it started - many shear bolts,or even better,a quarter twist of the box-section pto shaft and finally- 6.Ripvator forklift - tyres 120lb,blown tyre = big bang and buckled wheelrim. So many memories,names gone but Not Forgotten., [/QUOTE]
