Not sure how to find words today. My Father dropped down dead yesterday, no warning. One moment he was walking with mum and the next he was gone.
Finding a strange comfort in watching the softly falling snow today
Keep safe
My wife would like to set up a holiday accommodation business.. what complicates it is neither my wife or I own the land. I farm in partnership with my aging parents but the ownership of the farm is outside the partnership and lies in the hands of my parents. Having been caught out before I am...
A collection of 4 saws, hedge trimmer and pressure washer have been recovered thanks to an accidental discovered of a cache left in a Mid Shropshire wood today. I would be delighted if I can assist with their return to the rightful owner/s. Most likely taken and stashed in the last 48hours.
Seized the gearbox on our topper :banghead:
Am I correct in thinking once the castellasted nut and split pin are removed under the blade carrier then the blade carrier should be free to drop off? Its stubbornly refusing to let go.
My JD6630 hydraulics have quit. I realised it was a bit low on oil tipping the trailer when it went to alarm mode and wouldnt move until I lowered the trailer. Having dropped the trailer I realised it still held 1/2 load of muck so I tried tipping it again and nothing, no power steering, no...
I have a problem with a exterior PTO switch on our 6630, its seized solid. I think it is the reason why the PTO doesn't always engage when operated from inside the cab and annoyingly causes the PTO to disengage mid fert spreading or at some other awkward moment!

Before I spend more on the sledge than the sledge is worth... anyone got one of these lying around. Those in my own scrap collection are all either too big or too small! :rolleyes:
Its apparently going to cost 1/2 a million to reinstate the clapper to ring Big Ben to announce Brexit day at the end of the month :scratchhead: If we really need to ring it.... I suggest they pay my travel expenses and put me and the family up in a nice hotel for the weekend I am happy...
I know the numbers in sheep production aren’t great but only £2/ewe and that is before we potentially loose a chunk of EU sales post Brexit, before BPS is slashed and after recent and future wage increases :scratchhead: Future for high input sheep production certainly looks bleak!
So just had an interesting withheld call... apparently crown court baliffs will be arriving today but later than we originally expected them... except we have had no communications from the courts or prior notification and were not expecting them....
After a bit more questioning I...
Looking at our seed cleaning/seed dressing invoice... ( for seed that is going to have to sit in the shed for a year :banghead::banghead: )

Whilst we always have undetected levels for these in the past we have a count of 10 for Presumptive Coliforms in 100ml and >100 Presumptive Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 100ml... Is that at a fail level for private water supplies...
