Ha Mr. Massey 765

Can you clear a few things up please

Was the fellow from Tonge Norton kissing a female


Did the diesel vanish with the missing furrow

Could you not blame the clocks going forward on the being late

Weather and the company was good at a great match

By the way were can I buy a fancy hat like wit you was wearin!!!

definitely female

I think another definate caused by age and brain fade

Clocks ..diesel...whatever. ..I had to take the bollocking like a man

I defenatly agree with weather but the company was a bit dubious

The bearded one from Yorkshire took a picture of me hat when it was new....looked a pillock then but it does not make my head itch like a woolly hat and it cuts down my chances of this new snoggin rule ever happening. ...enough bollocking for being late

 

[Howard150]

Well......
Went to Whitchurch yesterday. ......glorious day after all the bleddy rain......met a chap from Yorkshire who is chairman of some society or other. .......another guy gave me a bit of stick and said he was called dealer. ........met another guy from Tong Norton and got some more stick.......met another guy from with a beard from Yorkshire and even more stick.......then went out of the marque to go to my plot and saw the Tong Norton chappy snoggin in the tractor seat .that's not compulsory I take it.........then later in the day I was saved by a man from Yorkshire when my owd 65 decided it was a bit dry......which made me late for the mother's day tea when I got home ..and duly took the bollocking on the chin
All in all life would be dull if it wasn't for other people

Sounds like bad luck and good company follow you round in abundance. Truth to tell you met two fellows from Yorkshire (Gods county) who are both chairmen of some societies (or other), one of them also having a beard. Lucky though in that you found your hat

I'd just check if I were you that nobody snuck in and pinched your diesel, wouldn't be the first item of value that went missing from under your nose at a ploughing match!

On a lighter note are you coming to Woody's on Sunday? All for a good cause - all proceeds to a children's heart unit. Bring your own luck but chance whatever else - good company is assured. PS. It's on sand so rest assured there's no chance of having the odd furrow nicked.
PPS I think you should all take a leaf out of my book and leave that poor unfortunate chap from Tong Norton alone despite what he does in private at a ploughing match!

Didn't like to put too fine a point on it before, but can you be 100% sure that it's all bad luck or maybe just a teeny weeny bit of bad management involved as well?

PS any more than 5 matches on a tank full is a fib.
PPS make sure and put the right postcode in your Satnav when coming back into Yorkshire

 

[massey765]

Should manage A19 bout sat nav

 

[Howard150]

Should manage A19 bout sat nav

If you are coming down the way from Thirsk, it's 'just a bit lower up' than Easingwold so if you get to Easingwold you missed it. If you are going up the way toward Thirsk, then it's still a bit lower up than Easingwold, but here's where it gets complicated...... it's on the right, not the left.

I will be there, waiting with baited breath, with a folder full of clean, unadulterated score sheets, all with hunderds n' hunderds o' points on them. All you need do is to lay claim to them! My task is simple - deciding who are the most deserving cases.

Come with an open mind, not difficult as you usually come with your eyes wide open, how else would you have reckoned to see folk 'snogging' at a ploughing match?

PS don't forget the postcode. All t' right nummmers in all t' wrong order still won't work.

And in the tractor seat. ..I mean possible for a courting couple in the spectator section

 

[Pennine Ploughing]

I was going to pop over the hill, but as our local one was postponed due to wet stuff, It's on the same day now

 

[ploughman61]

Just checking

Thought it was ploughman 61.

Not my type

 

[Carrot cruncher]

No I didn't compete as the lad I work with did incidentally he won it, in fairly friendly with all the boys competing in that class.
As I said earlier to someone whose not done any conventional ploughing those boys looked like they were doing a cracking job. Did you compete?

Yes, I was in the Classic Class, ploughing with a David Brown 780 and a Ransomes plough. So could you be tempted to have a go next year?

 

[Lofty1984]

I could hold my own in the reversible class but as we only have the one plough at work I don't mind missing out to the lad I work with, as for the "proper ploughing" I'd need some serious practice

I'd be happy to help any way I can if it gets another ploughman on the field. What class would you go in, have you got any equipment?

We've got a few old ploughs in the nettles at home dad @cokey1955 would know what they are

I would be happy to take a look for you and see if any of your hedgerow ploughs would be suitable.

Not sure if you've seen this in the Glamorgan gem

No hadn't seen the paper as I live north of the M4 but they always do a nice write up of the match, they seem to have mixed up the classes, got my class down as vintage hydraulic etc.

 

[massey765]

Gisburn this Sunday and we have at least one top judge ...........with an injured pinkie. ......so if he's not in to much pain should a half decent job




Hope he forgets his bleddy camera

If anybody wants to come give us a nod....not marking out till Wednesday

 

[Howard150]

Cross threaded in other words

As long as nobody comes in trying to make a left hand thread fit. All t'other variants work together after a fashion

Mr Stokes lurking again I see - all picture and no sound.... Henry's on Sunday perchance at Gisburn?

 

[massey765]

I suppose the banter starts on the after match report maybe a post morton or similar titled thread would be appropriate?
