Farmer Roy's Random Thoughts - I never said it was easy.

From a neutral point of view, England killed the ball repeatedly
Should have had a yellow

Says a Scotsman ?

Says a Scotsman ?

Well i counted 5 or 6 penalties in the eng 22
Any other ref would have been in his pocket

 

[glasshouse]

A. Because the trailers sometimes fall over if the operator turns to sharp
B. Did you notice the lack of straps......
C. Dont need to attract any unwanted attention as we are crossing a highway.
D. Only drop deck semi trailers stack 4 high. Normal flat bed trailers only ever stack 3 high here.
E. Generally speaking most loads are already up around 17 tonnes or better. Fair bit for single axle ancient trailers...

fair enough
do you load 3 at a time?
I would go 3.5 high without straps, more stable than 3

Sounds like it could be another Brexit story ?

Anyone fancying a pad local to us.

Been on sale for a few years now.

Word is it’s been reduced in price from £3m to £2.5m.

Think the guy paid that for it about 10 years ago and has spent a shed load of money on it.

Certainly a way to lose serious cash.

We've looked through the details and Mel says it's a No as she doesn't like the colour scheme.....

 

[CornishTone]

We thought she’d be conflicted in her loyalties but, in a typically antipodean protest, at full time she took all her clothes off and flatly refused to put them back on!

Was a good game though. The right team won at the end of the day. They’ll have to play their socks off against the Kiwis mind!!!

I had to look that up!

That cops face... priceless!![emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

any harvest progress?

Yes, they’re going. But most still isn’t dry.

Stuff seems to be dropping by .4 a day. Painfully slow. They’re happy if they’re getting wheat out of the 16 range and lots of canola has actually passed wheat after curing for 3-5 weeks.

Good reclamation story here.

Although short on any details about land health, you’re left to presume it’s doing good based on bison numbers.

I bet he got a slap when he got home!!

With jcb yes. But because we need that back at the shed we have to resort to the 100hp fendt. Unfortunately 3 high is too much for both the loader and you cant keep the back wheels on the ground ?

The dry spring my local farmer friends keep telling me is going to happen isnt really working out there way....i had a drought predicting friend check my grass while i was away, said he wouldnt buy more cattle because going dry, see pics below.

Weather forecaste predictions past a week arent worth paying attention to imo.

This week im hunting for cattle as cant sow spring crop.

Ant....

Looks a bit drippy this week

Put the little mob beside the house to give the grass a bit of a chew-off for lamb-lamb and the little calves

Hopefully an inch or two of the wet stuff and then some heat.

Ive heard weather predictions past a week aren’t worth paying attention too.
