I feel your pain bro!! PITA!!

Didn't hear from the trans shop today At least I know it's in good hands!!!

Hope all had a great evening, judging by how quiet it is, everyone's still outside enjoying the weather!!! Looking forward to my daughters B-Day party this weekend!! 8 girls sleeping over. Going to set them up in the camper, got the pool ready couple days ago, going to set up my projector from the man cave on the outside of the door for them all to watch a movie outside (yes, spraying for skitters before hand)
Speaking of skitters........a good friend of mine went to buy Par3 and malathion (he bought a used city of wpg skitter sprayer, he has horses and hates skitters) and they turned him away. NO LONGER SELLING TO THE PUBLIC. Only way, they say, to get it is to take some "university course". True story. Anyone else hear of this??? As of two days ago they could have sold it to him. Luckily for me I just bought 10l of Round up and 10l of Trikill!!

Well that's it for this guy. Along with moving furniture from here to there I managed to get 5 cans of paint on the walls!! I'm a tuckered!! That Behr Marquee paint is as advertised. One coat over everything, couldn't believe it but its the best paint i've ever used!!

My bro bought Par3 from Leo's on the North perimeter this week using his section number. Maybe malation could be bought also.

Hearing your guys' inspection woes have left me thankful I live in Saskatchewan. No doubt in a matter of time our system will change, but for now I like it.

Bit of a messed up week weather wise. Yesterday started off real cool, warmed up with overcast skies, then cleared up and got real hot, then a large rain cloud came by with a sprinkle... Nearly got our roofing job done, perhaps today will be the end.

Morris, are you happy with your 8n and 3pth mower? There is one for sale not far from me. The engine has been completely rebuilt with all new internals, 72" mower included for 4g. My FIL thinks its not worth it, the mower is a side discharge Land Pride model, and says the non-live PTO will drive me nuts since using the JD with the live PTO... Tractor is an 8NE...

I get all the way to Vehicle Inspection place and damn ABS light came back on. So back to shop. Those generic programmers like Edge wreck your computer system if you have larger wheels/tires. Another flash in order.

The 8n is a good little tractor for pulling a mower. I would say the price is a little high but, that is sight unseen. A new mower like that is almost 2 g's. As for the pto as long as you are going in circles it shouldn't be much of an issue.
