How the heII are you, Dell ? No middy's but we did go out for dinner and I thought of that very subject. My lovely lindy ordered a glass of wine. They brought it in a glass that was twice the size of the liquid. It nearly looked rude to serve it !The Tractor: No the 8N was not bought for backhoeing. Just for general hauling of stuff around the lot. We are putting in a commercial building on our 2nd lot. This is the second building we have done ourselves. However, we have called around and every backhoe tractor with or without an operator is unbelieveably expensive. Also, nobody can get here until at least October. We started this project in April and so far, it has taken us four wasted months of stupid local code officer legal run-a-round crap to get to the actual building stage. We live in the back woods of upstate NY where there are plenty of farms and tractors. However, all with front end buckets etc. One company would rent to us for just under $1000/wk. Not too bad except before we even start, we just need on 6ft deep hole for the perc test It looks like we will be digging this hole by hand ...and my Linda is not a large gal either ! Ha ha! So, yesterday, I had the bright idea perhaps I could buy a backhoe attachment ? Unlike a professional, I don't have to worry about being too swift to get in & out to the next job ! BTW (1)Dell, what is your knowledge of the demon liquid measure on a beer glass. (2) ...and if this knowledge gets out across the USA restaurant alcohol sales & huge profits could be ruined nation wide. Thanks for your reply... I hope there will be some company that makes these small backhoes... and there are people who can direct me??? best e'gards, Aussie Robb at the Sheep Dip Cafe' & Jeep Ewe'porium. near Syracuse NY
