The best tractor DVDs two years running?

The December/January edition of Ford and Fordson Tractors magazine contains two fine commendations for our Old Pond programmes.

The review of Ford Tractors 1965-95 concludes: 'Kim Parks feels this is the DVD of the year, just for the implements in action, and I have to agree with him.'

On the following page the magazine says of Tractor Restoration: paintwork: 'this was unanimously voted the DVD of the year (2009) and at a price of £19.95 plus p&p is nothing but jolly good value and thoroughly recommended.'

Ford and Fordson Tractors, the official magazine of the Ford & Fordson Association, is a bi-monthly that has reached issue 40 and is now edited by tractor guru Peter Love. A year's subscription for six issues currently costs £19.44 from Kelsey Publishing on 01959 541444 or online at www.subsdeals.co.uk.
