Well it wasn't him, but we have had a few champion show jumpers around here.

I cleaned out his pen yesterday as it was starting to look like he could just step over the gate.

Anyone know where I could buy heavy duty clip-on elastic braces for work trousers/rain gear for OH. I have looked on line but cannot see anyone in Ireland selling them.

Would he consider chainsaw ones? Although some of those are button on. And good chainsaw retailer has them or look online.

I saw Husqvarna clip on ones on Irish Forestry Products site but they are not elasticated. A friend was here last week doing some painting in the yard and he had a pair that his daughter go him a few years ago but he doesn't know where she got them.

Thanks for the link foxy. I ordered the braces for OH and a pair of work trousers for myself.

Spotted this guntered bumper locally, apologies for the quality of the photo, but anyone listening to Tubbs these mornings will understand.:D

Don't think they were trying to save the plastic, looks like bumper + lights already took a hammering.

The oul lad says I should weld an rsj on the back of my yoke!. I just reverse til I hear the hitch hit the bumper. He may be right! For once!

Or as they say in the states...

"Back up 'till you hear glass"

A camera is a big help, even to back into the hitch and not have to drag the traIler left or right.
It's well worth fitting one if there isn't one already fitted

The boss man used to tell me here when I was a chap that hooking up to a trailer is like basketball, a non contact sport.

Need to wash a few hundred mtrs of public road after muck on tanker wheels while at slurry. One man job. Have seen nice job on you tube using clamp fittings and length of galv box with holes drilled fitted on back of tank but haven't time to knock something like that together.

What state is the road in?
I don’t mean muck wise, potholes or damage?

Side delivery spout works well, but you will have to make several runs.

Watch out for oncoming cars and bicycles, use clean water.

Turn the splashplate upside down.

Also be wary of washing the roads when it's going to freeze.
You could be responsible of someone has an accident on the ice

To do final clean of silage slab I've used tanker of water with splash plate as is. Works well but uses water fast.
