I seem to be the only one not to own an excavator. Or a low loader trailer. Or a quad bike. Or a trampoline. Or tattoos. Or rigger boots. Or a hi viz jacket.:unsure:

Yes, No, No, No, No, No and Yes (but only for emergencies when some officious yard foreman starts bleating about 'elf'n'safetee innit!'. They are banned on my farm)

I also have never owned a Schoffel nor plan to.

Not that id ever risk that officer:angelic::angelic:;)
