Do you know what would look good on the back of that truck, Dicky? A V10 M5 Touring

Nice.


When I was a young lad, I became infatuated with a very attractive young lady from the next village.
I wss awfully shy in those days and just couldn't muster the courage to ask her out.
After a few days, my Dad asked me what was the matter, why was I moping about looking so forlorn?
I explained the situation to him, and he ( being a man of the World ) sagely advised me to do something to a tractor.



I've had a soft spot for them ever since....

By, it's a proper old thing, that is.

Some years ago, a chap I knew would have been keen to have a good look at that. Sadly, over the years his interest has waned considerably and now has very little to do with them.

I suppose he could be described as an ex tractor fan.

[glenrobbo]

Sorry.

So sorry Dicky.

I'd probably need to take the tractor off first, Alex.

So, instead, I could go on the train and drive the M5 back.

nnnNNNNNNNNNYOWWWWWWWWWwww

I'm prepared to do that. For you.

What ho chaps, just back from the Black Country living museum and what a fine and interesting place it is, they film a lot of Peaky Blinders there!!! Watched a 1924 silent film, watched a chap making chain, went on a classic bus, had a pint in an old Inn, marvellous!!!!

Nice reference to a Small Faces album.

The one with Stanley Unwin.

Yes.

I'm not making it upbold in the recordy platters.

Yeah it's quite cramped with four of us but we're doing ok especially since we opened a window so we could hear better!!!

No Dicky, I had bird surf and turf, no onion rings were consumed during this visit!!

Shame. I had a mental image of the waiter running alongside the combine harvester yelling, "Onion rings?" up at you.

[glenrobbo]

I would close the window if I were you Bobbers, or you'll get a lot of dust in your beer.

The likes of McCormick and Allis Chalmers came to us from the prairies of the good ole’ and nearly took over.

Why would he be running?? We were parked in the car park, you can't drive one of these things with four people in the cab, answer pub quiz questions and eat and drink at the same, that would just be silly!!!!

[glenrobbo]

He has a point Dicky.

Those harvesters are quite noisy things:
Bobbers probably wouldn't be able to hear the onion ring anyway.

Morning all. Day 2/3 of ten small relatives camping in the garden. They were up at 5am running around and screaming.
Mrs P: Shall I ask them to go back to bed?
Me: Good idea. If it works can you then ask the sun to come out and wind direction to change?

If it works don't send the wind this way, no flying yesterday
