Unfortunatly not Gert, its an old 1960's massey ferguson and when it got so old we bought a county and retired the old girl by adding a chipper to her linkage and she stayed in situ for a few years mulching for us :thumbright:

As we're on a 20-years-ago sort of theme, this was me back then shortly after passing my bike test. I'd had my motorbike stolen a week before my test date and had to hire one to do the test on. This is all I could afford with the insurance money, a Honda 200. Loved it. A few weeks later I was pregnant, so never got around to buying anything bigger. One day.......

OK this is me 20 years ago ( :laughing6: :laughing6: )taken on old slide film, don't know why the camera strap or whatever is in the way. It had me in stitches when I first saw it a couple of years ago and believe me I really did learn to ride a lot better than that! :lol:

Yes Susie but it shouldn't be all blurred like that and I had to reduce it to silly size like about 300 pixels before it showed, which makes no sense at all. :scratch:

I'll find another one but I don't have too many already scanned, most of the really old ones my brother converted from old slide film so I'm very young.
