    Yes, but a bad memory can be very useful at times, particularly if you're known for it ;)

    No the tractor and loaders perfect, only bought it 3 weeks ago of a new holland main dealer payed well over the odds for it on the condition that it was left 100% right, will be a interesting phone call made after lunch.
    Going to be a good one trying to explain what happened to the insurance, the grab on the front saved the tractor it took all the impact.

    Should've bought a Massey from your other neighbour, good hand brake on them.

    That could've been much worse

    Had to go with that yoke, trying to keep the lad beside us happy and hopefully get all them nice big empty sheds that are now idle.
    Still cant fathom what happened, was in the dairy at that time washing the bulk tank when I see the tractor fly-by the window 3 feet away from us and into the bin, was a blast of wind that made it take-off, how the handbrake gave when she was on the flat beats me.

    Cant imagine what caused it to take off unless the handbrake cable snapped or something

    Handbrakes still "working" perfect, wasn't biting when I got into tractor to pull it out from the bin but was fully pulled up but had disengaged somehow, had serious winds blowing 60 plus mph when it happened but that shouldn't of had the force to shift it.

    Its a cable, real stupid design the tractors got the sle box so you cant put her in gear so to speak if the handbrake fails the tractors gone like what happened us today.
