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

[CornishTone]

Arrived back in the UK for a fortnight to christen the child and drink some real beer!

Surprised to discover a distinct lack of doom and gloom among the farming fraternity in the homeland! Is all not as horrendous as some would have us believe?!?!?!?!

P.s. jet lag provides us with a unique opportunity to drink and maintain a bizarre yet unquestionable clarity of thought!

Can you grow the LSD eucalyptus?

Eucalyptus Deglupta which hides the colours under the bark. About as mad as you Antipodeans

The old Tojo has been making a bit of a clunking noise from the front the last couple of weeks

It appears something is missing

Good as new

 

[Farmer Roy]

And while we're talking dog pee rusting chassis poof chariots - here's the underside of a 20 yr old Tojo that's been through numerous floods, lives on a gravel road, never gets washed or garaged . . .

 

[Kiwi Pete]

Look at that beauty...
Miss my old one sometimes, but my new chariot has a better ride by about 300%

Make sure you grease it
