When we were kids, my Grandma used to take us out in the fields and we had to pull them up, roots and all. Our reward at the end of the summer was a trip to Blackpool. It was only 14 acres though!
Today at work

Obviously no RT non-compliances to worry about - or OH hasn't told you yet! Probably waiting 'til you've had 1 or 2 Thatchers and steak later.

What's the idea of the sloped wall or is it just following the slope of the ground? @Forever Fendt

Not posted in here for a while so best have a catch up.
Starts off with working ground with the recently acquired woods on the demo tractor
Hopes got confirmed as I waved good riddance
Ballast rolling the barley/grass wholecrop with the racing slicks
Few cracks got welded up in the mower hood
Had the racing slicks changed
Finally on with the 1st cut

If they caught you the department will put a stop on all movements in and out, then you'll get a cross compliance inspection, all paperwork, animals and premises, you do not need to be present and they have the power to go on farm you can't stop them. They will also inform the FSA as its a breech of agency rules it will be marked as a severe non conformance and they will take a percentage of your single farm payment. Only way out here is for a vet to shoot and bleed a casualty on farm and then the animal is taken to a meat plant were it is processed then you get your butcher to collect it and butcher it for you.

All explained on the livestock thread! Page 1626 on Confessions of a sheep ,beef Cattle addicts thread . Yesterday good old RT inspector was here.
The OH kept it quiet from me as she didn't want me upsetting things , anyway I spotted a few cows were going to Raglan off @andy_tee87 which I thought were worth a look so off I went . Bought a cow and calve then came back home. RT lass was still in house so I drove straight by and got on with some work .....
Inspection passesd with no problems !
I did say to OH that if she decides that there are any nonconformity issues then tell her to stick it !
You should have come and said hello in the market cafe !
Always want to meet TFFers .

No, it’s not my thing. Looks like a good way to ruin a pleasant walk.
Not sure who has the arable ground there now. I have limed it several times over the last 25 years for Phillip Townsend. I was liming the steep ridge and furrow grass banks next to it, then on to some tricky land by Whichford Mill so mountaineering was my hobby for the day.
Can’t beat the Big A for ridge and furrow work.
Glad RT behaved themselves,
Will come and say hello next time I see you now I know it's you

Big boy cut down here .
This is natury ground, no manure, fertiliser or whatever have been here for a long time. Wheat or barley have been here for years but now there is lucerne sowed. It went into head and we where advised to mow it as it would die otherwise.
All contracting work so, whatever.
After this the mower broke down, had to open up the cutterbar which was fun. Not.
She's running again so hey.
