I'm surprised there's not been more mention of this dire spring TBH. Must be the worst in living memory. Yet here, as in the rest of the ag press, all appears rosey......:scratchhead:

Had a visit a couple weeks ago.hardly ever buy from them as they are too expensive.did ask why they don’t supply fasteners like the competition but the rep did not know.the catalogue is great for a bit of reading and cross referencing stuff though.must cost a fortune to post or hand deliver them though

I don.t buy much off them, just had some filters for the one tractor and diesel tank, plus had some engine off them which was 52 for 25 litres, which was ok, i can get it for 48 but i would of had to fetch it for that. The rep for my area is very good, Hamish, if you need a part sourcing or an odd filter, he can always sort it.

On this forum you mean? Are you serious?
Where have you been?
Have you not seen the threads on lambing from hell, indoor/outdoor lambing, straw usage, lamb killing weather amongst others.

Mine out this afternoon for the first time on a field with pretend grass:rolleyes: i.e the ground is green but there is nothing there.

Two hours later - hail.
