Horrid thing to happen to the poor girl and my huge sympathies to the family of course.

Slightly odd though how you feel that you know some of these characters that you have only ever 'met' online and can genuininely grieve for them when they pass.

I felt the same when a forum member from North Wales died suddenly a year or two ago, those of you who remember him will know who I mean, I won't write his name here as it may upset the forum machinery.
 
See our good friend Olly from “ Ollys farm “ has started up a patreon so others can pay for his tractor restorations - £11 a month for the luxury of extra footage, getting to meet Olly, a sandwich, drink and the chance to give your input in the Ollys farm business ( that he won’t listen to ) :unsure: Also good to see his contracting business has taken off well, 8th of June and still not a single bit of work.

I’ve watched couple of his vids by accident when been looking for ollyblogs.
He seems like a nice bloke but pretty feckless. Does he do much work? Just seems t be tarting about talking about exclusive content.

His unloading technique for his load of fert got me quite angry so not been back..... 2 bags at a time trailed half way round the yard. Just take the whole lot off, next to the truck, let the wagon away then he could’ve spent the whole afternoon posing and being shite on the manitou without holding anyone else up.

I watch Field Rows which is red neck TV . Duffy Ag is good as he seems angry all the time which is something I can relate to.There are a few others from the southern part of the U.S that are interesting and South Sask Farmer which is o.k .
N nothing from the UK it just makes me jealous. '

Yeah the boy is a top notch twit. Not sure how he fills his day, to be honest. 3 weeks worth of videos and all he’s done is a field of weed wiping and pushed up a load of muck with a demo T5 tractor. He’s obviously given up trying to be a contractor because no one seems to be giving him work, not surprised when it took him 4 days to spread dung on 2 fields with an 18 ton spreader :scratchhead:

See his latest one. For a contracting business hes not doing well. Gets a contractor in to cut his hay. I'm not sure what exactly he's offering in is contracting??
I think his problem is that he can't see beyond new shiny stuff. Instead of that brand new Kuhn haybob he bought , he should have spend the money on a good second hand drum mower and second hand pz haybob and build from there. Then to add to his YouTube bought a second hand round baler such as a new Holland belt baler and document the highs and lows of it. That would make great content. If anything breaks, then just call in the contractor to finish up.
