    Three 3 gallon buckets in Billy's Discount Store (Ballinasloe and Loughrea) for .....E4.99! Beat that for a bargain! And don't say mineral lick buckets are free! This is black flexible plastic and proper handle.

    I came across this NH powerstar engine on ebay. It came out of a 7740, but I believe they will fit older ford tractors like a 7610 with a bit of guntering, if anyone is looking for one.

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-New-Holland-40-series-TS-tractor-engine-/112356644200?hash=item1a28fa5568:g:NRMAAOSwXYtY4T00

    1950 pounds sterling collected. But needs injector pump and starter.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    F.R.S. in Ballyjamesduff had rolls of Quinn bale wrap for sale yesterday for €47 inc V.A.T. Invoice and code provided. Last years stock as, I'm told, a bit of a clearance being done by manufacturers and they quitting selling wrap. It's not seconds but you pay your money and take your chance. Container load sold yesterday and I'm told another coming on Monday. Good saving even with 6 layers on bale instead of 4 if you worried about quality

    Don't know if it has improved but last time we got Quinn wrap it kept snapping on the wrapper an issue I've never had before or after with any other brand. I wouldn't be in a hurry to buy it again although that is very cheap.

    Yes, I've had no problems with silotite. We normally get silotite, silawrap or volac topwrap and have had no issues with any of them.

    Site box for 110 Euro in Homebase. Quality is questionable for a site box but it would make a perfect chemical store.

    It's a good grinder but they usually sell the 9" and 4" ones together for €150

    Hopefully its a bargain, but I bought this on Thursday. A bit scabby, but it'll clean up well. Much sounder than the one I have at the moment anyway!

    https://www.donedeal.ie/fertiliserspreaders-for-sale/kuhn-mds-921-spreader/16033381

    Was "re-routed" on the way home, when I arrived in some little village into the middle of a March.... :D

    Looks like you got a bargain, but I guess we will see how many bits you have to weld to it on the guntering thread :D

    No tractor there, but seemingly he imports s/h teleporters and an occasional 3cx.
    Had a shough bucket off a Kubota, very cheap (If you had a Kubota!)
