we have WhatsApp groups between me and oh ,

Going well until the trailer developed a prolapse
Clean sheets , just in time for this 2am arrival. Photo taken 2.30👍
Splashed out on a new carpet mat for the tractor like you arable boys have , though I’d let it flatten out in front of the woodburner .
until d**k of the day arrived and ate its biscuit on the new carpet 🤣🤬🤣
