21 Reasons

[ROBINWORKS]

Came across this leaflet earlier today.

The joys the only reason you didnt get burnt to a crisp was the layer of dust sticking to the sweat, 540 in 3/4 of an hour was my record was I glad to see baler running out of string. ,

 

[David.]

We had one, I was fortunate to be just that bit too young and dodged the draft.
Other than the inconvenience of having a slave stand in the dust all day to stack the bales, it must have been streets ahead of the alternative of a Perry sledge, and having the soul destroying task of stacking 2500 bales up in 8s at night, after the days baling. A task that I was unfortunately deemed plenty old enough for.

 

[jondear]

Only 8s used to do 9s or10s!

 

[Mursal]

Ah the good old days, listening to Radio Luxembourg, if we had batteries ............

 

[jondear]

[Mursal]
