  |
|
Sunday was our local vintage working day (about 5 miles from my home) we took some tractors along.
Loaded up the MF 97 FWA and away I went with the MF 1155 towing, youngest son followed with the Ford 8100 all went well and the weather was nice for the time of year.
There was approximately 105 tractors booked in, as you can see there was a range of makes, models and ages.
There was even a pair of horses doing some ploughing. Unfortunately the field is very small for the bigger models which I have.
Oldest son and the remainder of the family arrived mid afternoon and we had a picnic with tea and cream merinques, other tractor guys looked a bit envious of this.
Toward the end of the day all the tractors are driven around the field befor loading up and away back home.
Oldest son now driving the Ford 8100, youngest son the MF 1155 and I had the MF 97 FWA.
The Ford is a fairly rare model particularly with the Schindler front axle but the MF models got most interest as thes are very rare tractors in Scotland.
Hope you enjoy.
Bill

Pictures are always great, especially of other parts of the world!
Apparently Scotland is home- so did you go back, or were you born/raised there?

Great. All I miss is a picture of the Highland Cattle, if I have the right part of the world.

Great grandfather and his brother went to Banff, brother stayed and his branch of the family is still there my great grandfather came back to Scotland and remained here. I was born and brought up here (Scotland) but always wanted to go live in Canada or the US. Unfortunately I left it too late (Im now 56) but always enjoy my vacations in Canada and the US. As you can see Ive been lucky enough to bring back some US toys, most guys here like to collect British tractors such as small Internationals, Massey and Ford models although there is a definate move toward classics from the 70"s and 80"s.
