They were looking for an old new Holland chopper a few months back to restore, I believe they found that one over in Ireland. I think that was the first model self propelled they ran.

Looking through those photos the thought going through my mind is......."where have they hidden all the junk?".

Concrete envy

Hats off to them for the display though. I love the wrapped bale placed behind the McHale Fusion. Logical when you think about it, but I wouldn't have thought to do that.

You can tell @RWG Contracts didn't lay it. It's all got wonky edges!

I didn't go on Saturday but I was there on Friday night and I thought it looked like they took tremendous pride in what they had going on what with all the grass cut tidy and all the smart stone walls on the approach to the farm and how the front of the farm that anyone would see first was all nicely landscaped.

My farm looks nothing like that but by gawd I wish it could some day.

Haha, reading through your post I was thinking similar.

More to the point....I wonder if they'd like to have a go round mine..! The joys of having a lot of men on the ground - jobs like that don't take quite so long.

Well I guess we could all be envious of what someone else has, business or personal, you just have to make the best of what you have

Haha, I wasn't referring to the machinery!
