    No, the digger is belong to a lad I work with now and again cutting turf and things. I'd have a fair job made out of the place if I had it for a year!!

    Is it legal to reclaim land like that in the burren. I would have thought they have closed down on everything like that now.

    A lot of our land is SAC but not all of it. You can do whatever you want where its not once its on green land.

    the main pivot where the axle meets the chassis had to be rebuilt, and new bushes. this caused the shaft to run off line and the splines on the diff were damaged, they need to be rebuilt as well, done the king pin bushes as well while it was out.
    done it last week, dropped out the axle our selves and sent it off to get done.

    New arrival yesterday evening. Dam sprung very quick so we had to calve on the slats. Dam's a PB off Navarin. Sire is Westside Bob (BB again)- Thankfully no section!

    EDIT- Forgot to say it's a heifer.

    Buy it, I wish, it's just borrowed off the sisters boyfriend...

    Half tempted to not give it back, sank in the bog it did, what's the revving noise at night? Jaysus must be the wind :o:o

    Sure it moves all types of manure :D I'd be dangerous with a little trailer for it.

    Our first blonde calf, shaping up well for just under two weeks or so. Bad pic but Mother decided to chase the cat after I got this.

    And our side door PB.
    Not doing as well as we hoped. Then again, it's a heifer's calf so better than a dead one.

    I always get the name wrong but I think it's Kilmoney Bruce. No problems at all calving, dam is a PB with Ullysus on dam side and Navarin is her sire.
