Been a while, five months, in fact, and I’d rather forgotten this thread, but I was out for a walk today, and everywhere there were clouds of dust from tractors and combines harvesting crops, but they were a long way away, and I’ve not been able to grab any shots of combines.
However, I was sat outside the pub in Avebury and these were tearing through on a regular basis:

My new runaround, may have been sighted by some Brecon Beast riders on Sunday as I toddled off down the village to tidy up an oak that is down. Would have been quicker in the truck but you can’t beat the sound of the little Fergy on a sleepy Sunday morning!
A bit blurred, and in mono because I’d forgotten to switch back, but this was taken around midnight last night after I followed the thing for a bit taking my mate back home from the pub.
Lit up like the mother-ship, hauling a huge Harrow, working a very large field. I think it’s a John Deere, tracked and bloody huge!

I posted a link before – I thought some of you would like this.
A friends father is driving a Massey 135 on a wee trip, having done John O’Groats to Lands end already, he is now heading up to the arctic circle…
He is raising money for UNICEF and a teen cancer charity.
Currently is is -7 in a layby somewhere in Norway, and he is driving an open cab… He just had a bit of a windscreen fitted due to the cold and all sorts of help along the way.
Why not follow his adventure and sponsor his endeavour?
They have been there since the end of last summer. The ground is so wet round the house that it will make a right mess if we try and extract them at the moment.

It’s shed a track but the home made seat is great – seen on the Trans Cambrian Way cycle route last year (or maybe the year before now!)
Noticed this lot trundling through our village between christmas and the new year, and after a quick walk we found them again up the road at a local pub (hense dodgy camera phone pictures, Sorry). Check out those exhausts!
Hadn’t heard of Marshall and son’s “Field Marshall” tractors before:
