Your picture was rotated 90º when posted so it looked like you were spreading up a cliff. @llamedos is our resident "fixer" and has sorted things. It's a common occurrence.

@Deerefarmer, it happened to me all the time when I began posting.
Now, I make sure to hold my phone in landscape (horizontal) mode when I snap a picture for TFF and I rarely have a mountain scene.
Although folk thought I was tilting my phone to exaggerate the slopes we drive silage trucks on once... unfortunately I don't have that one anymore due to smashing that phone

Mr. Watkins is the man who never sleeps

Nice looking machine!

 

[Deerefarmer]

Thanks guys makes sense to me

 

[Kiwi Pete]

No worries!
Even though it auto rotates itself - it doesn't always behave when you upload 'em, have had a few posts myself.


Keep them coming, annoying as I am, nobody's had the heart to tell me off yet....


Yet!

It's only a couple of weeks every 3.5 to 4 months. About a week working night and day when the turkeys go out then 2-3 days starting at silly o'clock when the new ones come in. 2 am start tomorrow. Be back to normal Thursday till mid Feb when it all goes tits up again.

Got some of the snow blades ready to go today as they were forecasting white stuff over the weekend. Don't think we'll need them just yet but at least be ready to go

Spread liquid for a farmer who had a few classics including this one. I think it's an European model?

Don't think the 5 was over here, might have been on continental europe. The 10/20/30 and later 15/25/35 were the ones available here.

On a bit different line is a Deere dealer by the name Bruce Hopkins still in business in England? I've got a tractor that was sold new by them. I think it would be neat if the original owner would see it on the foum Its a 7710 Deere

Yep, he's still there not too far from Banbury towards Stratford on Avon on the Warwickshire Oxfordshire border. I've used plenty of kit sourced from there and spent many an hour going to/from or at the dealership on Shennington Airfield.

Thanks. Did they always sell Deutz or do they sell both? Deere and Deutz

It was allways John Deere hut he would sell you anything. I was a student on the largish estate close by in tge 80's and literally everything was sourced through him. All the tractors and machinery, the shepherds Land Rover, it was even rumoured that the milking parlour was supplied and fitted by Bruce as well. His dad worked as a tractor driver on the estate and only ever had two places of employment in his life. The only other employer was the War Department when he was employed as a bowser driver when they built the airfield, some of which was on eatate land so it could be said he worked on the same farm all his life
