Well, you now have something to look forward to OMD. I'm sure next time will be it and we won't see you for the dust.

Brings back memories of me previous Tug, bugger of a time with that.

Happy travels.

Well what bad luck OMD never Mind will make the next trip even more exciting ,
Depending on where the hose blew if you can get at it surly it could have been plugged (garden hose joiner for instance ) and hose clamps put on it and press on,
gee I have done that before did it on a header this harvest lots cheaper than a tilt tray trip home too I bet
