Thought I might get the Ex some for mothers day!

Hasn't Stevie. Blair got one yet?

TBH, that price is what I would expect someone to pay for a QuadChip. Take into the account the extra benefits and it is cheap! I quoted someone a bit more the other day too.

I came round your yard the other week with one but you was out!

Asked an uncle for a holiday job for the summer for beer money, that was 1982. Went to work for GreenMech in 1999. One day, I might look back and say "no wonder I'm skint!"

Just a quick bump. Well worth a visit, even Big Al from Scotland is going so is Martin Lucas from GreenMech.

Depending on your budget, Google and YouTube "iron horse", they used to be marketed under the jonsered name but can be had from somewhere abroad. I found a couple on mascus or agriaffaires. A member, Big Bolt has one in wet Norfolk. Bloody good but dearer than a tracked barrow.

Be-lated Bump...

I was recently with a client in the Ormskirk area and he had a huge domestic cat which had a tail that was longer than a standard BDM. I'm sure that, if you saw this thing walking across a field, it could be mistaken for something else! I think he called it an American Barn Cat.

Plug Ugly little truck tho!

I had a Greek breakfast everyday until the other year. Greek breakfast = 4 Marlboro and two cups of coffee! I packed in the fags September 2010......

QuadChip:sneaky2: Sorry, wouldn't be doing my job otherwise:blushing:

If you get any unwanted text messages about mis-sold policies, insurance or accident claims, delete them, do not answer to anything..... I had a bump in Stoke last September and since not long after, I've been mythered by txt messages advising me that I due a chunk of money etc. Reply "yes" to claim and "stop" if received in error. I replied "stop" because there was nothing wrong with me and I truly detest the "ambulance chase" culture that the nation is sliding into. I have been receiving phone calls from unknown numbers since then, a rate of 4 x daily at times. I eventually bust a gut and have a lovely conversation with one adviser that hates her job, but it pays the bills. She tells me that by replying, I set the ball in motion, the trick is to delete the message and move on....Non of the advisers would give me any contact details so I could complain an many of them could not delete me from the database!

Years ago, an Uncle and his family were tennant farmers at Bronsil Castle in the Malvern Hills, part of the Eastnor Estate. It was a magical place with the ruins of this castle and moat in front of the big house. They grew soft fruit on the farm and when there was a chance of frost, the temperature had to be taken at regular intervals out in the fields. This involved a long walk from the house up the hill to the top of a rise then around the moat bank which was heavily wooded. Along the length of the moat and through some more fields and to a weather station. If it was too cold, then pumps had to be switched on and water sprayed over the crop. There was always a rota to do this an visitors got the short straw to enable the family to get a night off. I did this on several occasions and there had been story's of doors being opened in the night and so on. But, whenever I walked around the moat, it got cold and I could swear that we were being shadowed by a big dog, a Wolf Hound or Great Dane. The farm had Labradors.....At breakfast, one guest refused to do the job as she said that she was sure that a dog had been on the moat bank! Four other people then confessed to having felt that a big dog was with them along the moat bank! One of whom admitted that they take a longer route to avoid the moat bank too.

If it is away across the water then we would Michael Large have his truck collect it next time he would be over. Simplest!

What a pillock!, another set of wrong dates! Twas the Tuesday 6th and Thursday 8th March 2012. Be good to see you there Andy....

Bartram Mowers, the GreenMech dealer for Norfolk and Suffolk are having and open day at there facility in Norwich (bluebell Road) on Mar 6th and then on March 9th at the Suffolk show ground. I'll be there with Martin Lucas, our sales director with a lorry load of kit.

I think a retired English teacher was bored. 1) The bandage was wound around the wound. 2) The farm was used to produce produce. 3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse. 4) We must polish the Polish built furniture.. 5) He could lead if he would get the lead out. 6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.. 7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present. 8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum. 9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes. 10) I did not object to the object. 11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid. 12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row. 13) They were too close to the door to close it. 14) The buck does funny things when the does are present. 15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line. 16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow. 17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail. 18) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.. 19) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests. 20) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend? Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France . Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. PS. - Why doesn't 'Buick' rhyme with 'quick' ? You lovers of the English language might enjoy this .. There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is 'UP.' It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP ? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report? We call UP our friends. And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver; we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car. At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing, but to be dressed UP is special. A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night. We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP! To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions. If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP. But when the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP. When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP. When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP. One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP, for now my time is UP, so........it is time to shut UP! Now it's UP to you what you do with this document.

Al tells me that there will be a QuadChip/Track, 1323, and a 1928 SafeTrac there plus some other kit! Go have a look for yusself!

Bump! Who is going?

BTrac died the death some years ago when there was a change in ownership. It is now called Vermeer UK Ltd.
