sometimes top dollars not always a top notch job either
just watch rouge traders
best bets recommendation
Very true, we have been doing some work over the last 6 months for a customer, basically following round putting right what the builder did wrong, mostly drainage on a yard, put in nice new concrete with "drains" turns out the reason the drains don't work is because he just put in a gully and didnt connect it to anything! another one he had "freed off" turned out that it had run for a while because he had smashed the bottom out of the old cast iron gully with a crow bar, worked til ground got saturated, no way it would have run otherwise when we dug it out the 6" pipe connected to it was bunged solid with silt The same builder keeps ringing my mate up now whinging he's got no work, wonder why?!

On the police ring round the other day someone had had a tractor with a trailer full of hay on it pinched out the field, only down the road from me too

Think alot of the original SD1's got robbed for thier engines by landrover owners, I had a lwb series 3 with a 3.5 v8 in out of one, would do a standing start in 4th gear used to eat the back tyres being in 2wd, could always wipe the smirk off a boy racers face with it at the traffic lights though drop it into second and boot it when the lights went green

Dare I suggest there would be a bit of collector interest in the Marshall marque.?
Certainly soundly if unimaginatively engineered.
The later/last ones were actually rebadged Steyr's if I recall.(Or was there some other connection)
Again properly engineered kit.
Cab off for a clutch should not be an issue, once every 20/25/30 years.
From memory the Steyr connection was towards the end of the companies existence after the Marshall name and etc had been bought by another company whose name escapes me at the minute, think the idea was to rebadge steyrs in marshall colours to increase the product range, was a series of articles on the Marshall tractor story in classic tractor magazine, either last year or year before I think

Bought one off the brother in law, he retained the harness for his new one, I use it with a loop harness off an old danarm strimmer, works fine but then don't do long days with it

2 metre spacings on the posts is going to make it mighty expensive, you can go up to 6 m spacings using high tensile netting although I usually go at 5 m if your using mild steel netting you should still be ok to go to 4m spacings, save some back ache too

Ive been shooting about 12 years tried everything a time or two but now just shoot a couple of things. A few pigeons at harvest time a duck or two through the winter evenings but the mainstay of my shooting is woodcock. I dont have to travel far often just walking from the house. Numbers are not huge but the ground is fairly open which gives a good chance of a shot. Ill add a few pics from last season.
My younger brother shot his first woodcock with my baikal .410 when he first started shooting had literally explained to him what they looked like 5 mins before, had one pellet just behind its eye, that was a fluky shot

Don't know how hot it was but mowing in my old ford today I could feel the heat coming through the soles of my boots she was running so hot, doesnt help the door struts broke so couldnt have the door open for any air flow, glad the customer took pity and bought me an icecream out

Video..or it didn't happen!
Oh it happened landy 90 with 3.0l essex v6 in it, no video though which is surprising as my Mrs usually likes to record such moments for posterity

Ya can't do that in a landie!
You can when you chain it to a skip wagon with a fully loaded skip on thats backed off the hardcore you put down and sunk on your lawn, span it on all four wheels and was skipping side to side across the road

Got me other day, religously applied suncream to all exposed skin as usual but didnt think about there being a small hole in the back of my t shirt, ended up with a very sore loclaised patch of sunburn

Strange that they would be shipped into Ireland
I wander who ordered them?
Wasn't any Tarmac or generators found on the same ship?!
Be the chaps who keep turning up round here asking if your interested in any saws, etc good and cheap

Where we live is near a footpath across the fields, the front of our house is used as a car park for dog walkers, so we can't always park when we get home, which is bad enough, but one day wife was in the kitchen saw the dog walker come back, put the dog in the car and toss the bag of dog doo in our front garden wife was out the door in ten seconds flat grabbed the bag and chucked it at the car as was going round the corner where it burst on rear windscreen we don't seem to get so many dog walkers parking here now

I've got a very battered set of these I just clamp the netting in and attach a chain to the loop in the middle then chain that to the loader or postknocker and reverse til tight then either double staple the wire to hold it while releasing the pressure and tie off or use a monkey strainer to take the pressure off one strand at a time and cut it and wrap it, which is bit more faf but looks neater
