Yes I am left handed
So glad that you found that 10 mm spanner, I was wondering how you were coping psychologically with it missing :)

On another note a field that was badly poached was drying out so fast in this fierce easterly that we are getting at present.

Sadly the gateway wasn't quite so dry.

Fortunately I spotted a neighbour in the distance and so gave him a ring.

Diversification project complete, so roll on the wife’s pasties and pies. Hopefully this might not be a bad time to be launching farm raised and baked food, perhaps including delivery.
Nearly as clean as @Robert K’s yard!View attachment 864855
The new trend for such places is utilising drone technology for delivering the pasties and sausage rolls.
