Just had a security review and upgraded the quad!
Never forget sending the farm student off with a clockwork one years ago as he said he'd put it out when he went past the field on his way home. Off he went with it sat on the back seat of his car, thankfully he'd wound the window down as the end of the barrel had to stick out the window, and yes you've guessed it, I had turned the gas on and activated the timer :whistle:
It was a good job he was on his way home as he had to change his underpants when it went off :ROFLMAO:

Had one come off a rotary years ago, heads in the middle, bums on the outside. It was winter and the place used to freeze up while you were milking so we had a big diesel heater running. Cow came off backwards underneath the rump rail, burnt her bum on the heater and jumped straight back up into the empty place. Cups back on and away we go again. Happy days!
 
Farrowing around here
I remember well a time when I was in junior school , the teacher asked " If cow is to calve , and sheep is to lamb , then pig is to ?? . The only person to answer was me , I said "farrow" I was absolutely mortified when she said "you of all people should know that the answer is piglet " I suppose I mistook calf , a noun , for calve , a verb. But I was fairly miffed that she ridiculed me in front of the whole class .
