Driving skills

Better keep practicing those tractor driving skills, we might need them soon.

I’ve often wondered how your average steering wheel attendant would cope without satellite assistance!

 

[glasshouse]

That would be funny

 

[Brisel]

Damn. Does that mean I have to use those arm thingys on the drill again? I’d got used to not welding them up regularly.

Give the arable boys something to do in winter: Practice driving in a straight line whilst facebooking and watching telly.

f**k that . . .

Auto steer goes down - tractor stops !

we’ve put too much effort into precise placement of wheels & plant rows to go & stuff it up for the sake of a day or twos work . . .

 

[Drillman]

Look on the bright side.

If all the auto steer boys are parked up in a state of shock unable to do any land work because the sat nav won’t work the rest of us might get more for our crops?

A day or two extra dry weather is a luxury we rarely get.

neither do we when you’re running 24 hours a day, or need to get on to the next contracting job

If you’re having to go 24/7 then you’ve taken on to much work, greedy, but typical

many farms here work 24 / 7 when planting, or spraying or harvesting

nothing uncommon about that

it isn’t always non stop sunshine & perfect weather either, we have plenty of weather related challenges as well
Trying to beat the rain, or get crops planted while we still have moisture . . .

fairly presumptuous to make comments like greedy or taking on too much work when you know nothing about me or my circumstances
