Hiya Roger, This summer, in East Anglia, YES! Hasn't rained really properly since June, apart from recent half hearted 5 minute showers. Lawn still quite straw coloured. Haven't got the mower out in weeks. Not complaining at that though! This summer, more like Oz here I fancy! No! Still looking for bottom pto. Oh, the possibilities!!! 1) Remove overdrive 2) Ashcroft H/R gears into transfer box 3) Normal pto to rear from overdrive position 4) Bottom pto driving hydraulic pump for 3 point linkage. Heaven! It'd keep me quiet for a year or so! How're you coping with backpackers driving your fleet on the beaches? Regards Alan.
