I don't know why, but i've just watched Olly of Norfolks finest farm screed about 3m2 of floor in his office/grainstore/.

You know how when you watch an expert tradesman work it's like watching poetry in motion? Well this wasn't poetry and there wasn't much motion.....
3m2

readymix or get a batcher in for the job? 🤣

I’m a bit confused watching olly’s videos. He was saying how good the weather was in his previous video when he was topping and the newest one was that it’s been a disaster year weather wise. Is he starting to copy Tom pemberton, disaster, worst day ever etc thumbnails. All his missing is super glue hand to the head. Perhaps that explains his sunglasses problem.

He’s relaying the grain shed floor himself - pouring a bucket of screed, he could have got a concrete company to do it but wanted to save a few quid. It’s all about saving a few quid with him, moaned in the last video about the cost of hiring a pump for the marshes and the diesel to run it. Moneys tight, but he wants to buy a 6410 just to roll the 50 acre of barley and sit on a bale wrapper for 2 days. :rolleyes:

Does anyone know if you can influence the ads that YouTube play? I’m sick of getting these 40 second in depth tampax ads discussing flow forecasts and I don’t think it is in anyway appropriate for my little boys.

I could understand the logarithm choosing them if I was watching loads of mr darcy clips, but we watch almost exclusively aircrash investigations, Artman how to draw, and ollyblogs.

or is there a better platform to use now? I wouldn’t mind paying if I don’t have to suffer the trendy fashionista tit telling us in a breathless manner how she played in flower fields as a child.

The adds are usually of things that you look for on other websites, ebay, google Facebook etc. Use an add blocker to get rid of them, or look at tractors on Google instead of tampax.
