Jim,

My traffic wasn't so bad. I have seen combines with 20 foot headers on

come
down the main street of town. You can get a combine almost anywhere in

the
county with a 20 foot header on it with out taking it off you are just

not
supposed to move at night.


went to collect two friesian stirks from a lass, not last saturday but
saturday before. Went on the JD 3130 because there was no way I was
going to haul a two cow trailer round them roads in the car. At one
point the road went between two houses. The gap between the two houses
was no more than eight feet. This is followed by a right angled bend.
There is a way there without passing between these two houses but that
is also narrow and twisting. They were shot out with fmd last year and
the army had to find short wheelbase lorries to carry stuff out.
When you get to the farm yard (in which there isn't room to turn a
lorry) the road runs out onto the fell, the buildings don't have
foundations, they are just set on bedrock.

There is one local haulier who will deliver to them.
