    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!

    Would a lad make a bale splitter from a scrapped sheargrab ?
    Are you down beside kilconnel muckit ? I do be out in ballyglass often enough

    No, bought it in Mullingar. QTP dealer in Galway is in Aughrim. Dealt with him a few times - nice man, always time for a chat!

    This is going on an outfarm where we make about 150 bales per year - that's only half a day's work. Wouldn't be worth it for a pit. Want to split the bales to save time on forking these dark mornings and evenings.

    I'm a lamb richer, neighbour dropped her off this morning. She was missing when I gathered the hill, didn't see her any day I'd been out since. Thought a bog hold had claimed her.

    For a man that won't buy cluster removers. You're not half looking after someone else's arse so. :-)

    didnt think there was cab suspension on the baby of the 76's:confused:, Could you not have stretched for the DVT gearbox over the Dyna, probably 10grand in the difference, pittance when your spending that much money in the first place:)

    10 grand is 10 grand. It might be enough to put walls in the parlour ;-)

    Couldn't justify Dvt with the yard scraper and Teagle cement mixer, maybe for the corn roller?

    I call into an old couple across the road before evening milking when clocks change to chop a few sticks and light the fire for them.
    Just after having strong fresh tea with rhubarb tart and about a kg of whipped cream, I feel like a xbred carrying BB twin bulls now, but gorgeous

    I see that. Some weekend for them.

    Hard to look beyond Crokes.
    The Gooch is worth the admission fee alone for a game like that.
