I havent laughed this much since i watched that programme familly farm and saw a chap from north wales loading small bales of silage on a trailer with towniesThis could turn into the best thread on TFF
TBO I don't know its on a scrap tractor in the orchard or at least I think there is one on itWhats the manifold like?
no it does not matter but there was a statement here that I am tri polar
Anyway who the f##k is Allis?
Didn't see the program, although I watched the clip put up in a earlier post. Why wouldnt you just big bale it? either in rounds or squares. I suppose it made for good TV.I havent laughed this much since i watched that programme familly farm and saw a chap from north wales loading small bales of silage on a trailer with townies

My disco 4 cut out on the way back from taunton today for the 3rd time. There was a big red light telling me not to drive.....im hoping that when we do the drive round tomorrow at longleat it comes on again and monkeys can take a look. After they cant do any worse than the last monkeys that tried to fix itmake sur the car s serviced up then last time we went the bledy top hose burst and the engine nearly boilled in the middle of the lion pen ...
Was that Davies and Jenkins then? We bought a Hereford bull from a farm off the side of Stowe Avenue along there somewhere by Dadford, was probably about 1982/4 bracket.Ron Jenkins of Home Farm Stowe. Did my sandwich year there in 1982.
Sadly he is long dead and the farm is now in the possession of National Trust who are using the house as an HQ. All the hay sheds now looking very sorry and redundant.
Used to time taking a tractor up the drive to coincide with the girls walking up to Stowe school from Dadford so i could give the prettiest a lift.
Happy days

You went to bed 25 minutes ago. Did you get up because this thread is so enthralling?My disco 4 cut out on the way back from taunton today for the 3rd time.

Analogy?
We are talking hay making? I was just reflecting on the UK summer of 68, there are stiff rumours that that was caused by the eec weather quota system malfunctioning on an early test run
According to the Met Office, the summer of '68 had 237mm of rain, that would be a dry summer by recent standards
Are you peeping at me through the trees
I better close the curtains.
Really?
The river Great Ouse was unnavigable for most of the summer. Not seen that since.
Also, my neighbor arable farmer, who up until then had managed fine with Fordsons and Nuffields had to rush out and buy a county to pull a 3 furrow plough.
Did she take the dog with her? Last time my wife went into the woods said she was going dogging, thought to myself that's strange she's taken the lead and left the dog behind.I was giving the kids the lecture earlier about staying safe in center parks. I told them straight, you never go into the woods after dark, theres perverts in them woods, perverts i tell you....
"Dad, wheres mum gone in her nighty?"

As far as I can see January to August '68 were very average rainfall months for the UK as a whole. Could be regional differences of course.
Are you sure you're not a year out? '67 was the wettest May on record in the UK, which might account for the rest of the summer feeling pretty damp.
