Plus if you are wanting it for a lifetime get the 1500 rpm version. The high speed screamers don't last as long plus are a bit loud.

Wishing to pick yer brains re a "new-to-me" tractor.

Yeap, auction prices are usually a good indicator, plus if the old machinery stops going for export will also be a good indicator. Maybe it'll create a boom in spare parts orders, granted probably not from the manufacturers as they're milking it with the like of John Deere but from independents. -
Only 18 years, I'd want the money back plus interest for the truck!.

The machinery side of things is going to be people buying new equipment, the prices are already beyond being mental. Which is obvious when you see the numbers of manufacturers and dealerships closing or downsizing as people can't afford new equipment unless you're Dyson. Granted IHT might force anyone with a viable business to actually keep more equipment on finance or rental agreements so they never actually own the equipment. A few grand a month Vs 100k on the books and taxable. -

Instead of buying some obsolete, obscure tat. Go to a shop and actually see what they have and recommend as it'll need to be upto regs and installed correctly. Buy cheap and be rewarded with an almost annual skip it and repeat every year.

I was trying to remember if they did the old FA cup draw out of a velvet bag ?.
-
1st of April we randomly select the colours at random out of bucket ?

Why would I want my accountant involved in something that needs to be simpler and fairer ?.
-
I'm sure an OEM one from @Jase hutch won't be too bad.

Robber Rachel probably wants access to your bank account. Another of Gordon's great Narnia style ideas, we handle your money and give you what we think is fair, maybe if Tony wasn't a bit short that week.

Don't quote me but I remember seeing something about California where they made it illegal or something like that to just use your own solar. Plus that's before we get into an industry where you're car is digital, so some little guy in India might clock it for you!.

He probably thought it was still pre American civil war. Plus wasn't Kamala promising legal weed for all those black folk?

What's the obsession with making life and tax EVEN more complicated?. You pay for fuel and that's kinda done with for petrol and diesel. These shenanigans should only apply to EVs. Mrs miggins who does no miles except the supermarket gets to keep her 1litre and needs to pay no more
-
Leave road tax and fuel alone. All EVs at service/mot or over the air like a smart meter pay say half what they would from the equivalent petrol or diesel. Plus get ready, brace brace brace touch you're toes as you know what's coming.
-
You're just making it a Gordon brown style system. How many pages is the tax advise something like 1200 pages and was before Gordon like 600. You make a system simple, so everyone pays equally to what they earn. That way we all know the score instead of CEOs paying less tax than the cleaners.

I've driven a few fully recyclable battery vehicles in my time, lead acid forklifts and milk floats, which are pretty much fully recyclable almost limitless!. This new lipo types are not, regardless of the chemistry and that's long before you get to the rare earth metals in the motors.
-
Me thinks it's an advert for not giving the National Trust a penny. We spent 300k on one solitary oak tree, but we've a forest of the buggers out the back.
-
I thought you were the bus driver?.
-
My heritage has zero impact and I'm not ashamed to like the union flag, I won't be exchanging it for the horrible EU abomination. I'll get my shot glass or will Mr Creosote need a large bucket for your many tears next week ?.
-
Maybe if the Donald wins we could get all the lefty's to cry into the grand canyon. Surely there are enough of them to atleast dampen the parched soil ?.
-
And how much is a new one?

Seeking advice on best tool to deal with bramble infestation
GarethM replied to jonrec's topic in Landscaping
Half a hectare is just over an acre, goats would be better as they'll eat everything including anything invasive. -
Bingo, my thoughts exactly. I've trees older and larger in fields with livestock, pragmatic is the key. If something falls off you tidy it up but you don't start messing and calling in specialists to mess with the roots.

Low tech, get a few guys to lift it up whilst you press the up button. Once up made sure it's chocked!. The pump on most doesn't run when coming down, it's just opens the solenoid valve and lets it's flow under gravity back into the tank.
