Most maize pictures I've seen recently are of trailers up to their bellies in the mud, waiting for a tow!

Looks like it was a big sale, by the catalogue.
I'd have been waving my arms around for those 8 stud trailer wheels!

On that subject (and I know that if I was serious I'd put it into one of the classifieds areas on here!) has anyone got 4 cheap 8 stud wheel & tyres for a 12t grain trailer that just gets dragged round the yard with a bit of cattle food in?
Or unperished tyres you've replaced, (bald as you like!) To replace the 540-22.5s that are falling apart on it at the moment!

Ive got some somewhere
 
Ardleigh Clarke and Simpson.

Everyone seemed to have a lot more money than me, even when they stopped waving their arms about the internet bidders joined the fun.

I half went to buy some cattle hurdles, they are on offer at Mole just up the road - same things exactly I thought, they made very good money in the sale and I went up the road and bought new - and they deliver for nothing.

Tractors made a bit - 2 105 hp NH with less than 50 hours on the clock each made about £40K, the JD over 60

Shark and Simpson.
 
This has been an interesting week for me, my first trip down to Kent since my daughter was born in the early summer; it's great to have my best friend as a boss as he just allowed me to spend time with my family and work from home.
Anyways, I rock up to the office only to find he has brought a new drone and my desk was the final resting place of all the packaging, first job is to tidy the office!
Then three days of site meetings for; potential redevelopment of an old Wheelwrights building in a clearing in an ancient woodland; two residential extensions; replacing a mobile home with an AOC with a bungalow; a Class Q conversion; redevelopment of a plot with a bungalow in extensive grounds to provide 9 two-bed flats and a conversion of a stable building into staff accommodation on a large estate.

Had the pleasure of dropping in on @holwellcourtfarm on my way home, my first TFF meeting, looking forward to meeting more of you on my travels!
