More of an educational day today than work, AHDB monitor farm talk.
And a farm walk, looking at some ditches
The only redemption was the buffet and the all you can eat scones
Called in to see how my mate was getting on with his chipper engine rebuild.
Nearly ready to go back in, see how long it lasts this time!

No. We have grazing on a couple of estates up here in Suffolk and the marshes are on one of those. The cows stay with us on sandy land all winter. We just request the tractor & Stewart when we need it to move stock around.I thought I recognised it
The home Farm is on the marshes?

I recognise the rig as an Essex one, trailer envy. You delivered me some sheep with it earlier this year.
Or at least the tractor and trailer did....

Made some progress last week on the farrowing house, ignore uneven post heights, will all be trimmed to height creating a south facing pitch in due course

Some of those people look fascinated by the ditch!

New roof light a little more effective than the old ones despite blowing off the moss with the leaf blower (page 96 of the book 'things to do with a leaf blower that doesn't involve blowing leaves)
further down the shed there was one sheet that was miles worse than all the other 60 year old ones. Another roof light patched over the top of that before dark.
But the view was nice, the grass is actually growing at present.

I don’t get down to the home farm very often. That would be one of the chaps from down there .
Hope the sheep were ok .....

To be fair It was an interesting ditch as far as ditches go
They already had the jam and cream installed! Trouble with splitting it down the middle is you have to bite at just the right angle to get some of each
, otherwise you get just jam or cream in its ownTo be fair It was an interesting ditch as far as ditches go

I never knew the jam and cream were “installed” on a scone.

As farm workshops go, that's surely in the top 10% of tidiness? Heck it's got a concrete floor and you can even see some of it between the junk (Sorry, I mean "useful items").
