    Chips & burgers, I've been put off them for years, used to be my standard fare at shows and events where you'd be a captive consumer and they'd dish out any ould ****e for big money. You're young yet, time enough to get sense LOL.

    Did you buy your sheep yet?

    I see some of the Clare hurlers shaking up the Clare football championship. Great win for Cratloe.
    No time to celebrate, out again in the Munster championship tomorrow.

    The only way to keep purchased sheep is let them off in your neighbours farm. They'll then break into your place. :P

    You should try two of them.
    My two have started that lately, they have no bother escaping from there cots in the middle of the night and giving you a slap to wake you up.

    Anyone got one of these valves on their older massey? They were being sold by a lad on donedeal a few years back. Can only find them in QTP now. I am planning on putting a bale splitter in a 165 and wondering if this valve will allow me to operate the double acting ram.

    Any advice appreciated?

    Just a follow up on this post. Anyone with an old 1 series or early 2 series Massey (265 etc) who wants to put a spool valve on it to operate a double acting ram such as that on a hydraulic topling, bale splitter, etc, this valve will do the trick!

    On the hunt for a reasonably priced bale spplitter this week :)

    Did you buy it off a qtp dealer reilig? Perhaps a lad outside kilconnel?

    I'd say you'l come away buying a nice rear tine grab and make a pit next year!
