Plenty of farmers that don't like hard work!

I can understand people making you tube videos as it can be an income, but how do you all find the time to watch it? Last thing I want to do it watch some bloke frying up a breakfast and saying how great it is or telling me how fabulous the latest case is every night.:scratchhead:
In forced isolation here for 10 days after a hospital stay at the weekend and recovery so time is in material.
Funny how 100 posts a day from others isn’t a problem tho?

Ollie farm!! I only watch to see how much of a tw*t he is. Who wants to have a phone cover with Ollie's farm on it? When he got the 155 +loader it was the best thing ever, but now the manitou is so great! N he's gonna do contracting!!!!!!
Gives most hard working farmers a bad reputation the way he has spent money in the last year or so is unbelievable. I wish him luck in the future but he will have to grow up first

Welker is getting less fun te me now they start using new machines, I just like the old bangers. Still worth watching though.
Farmer on the prairie has it's moments, watching a 16 ish year old girl cut the balls of bulls was something to behold :LOL:

Sonne farms was 'banding' their reject bulls the other day - 8-10 month olds, just weaned, rejecting them on weaning weight.

I have missed a stone now and again and have to pay our vet rather a lot of money to cut these out surgically leaving the steer with an open wound at best. These lads were just using something like a ratchet strap to do the job - and we may be competing with this kind of beef raising system anytime soon. It looked cruel as hell to me, the newly created steers didn't look too happy either.

Nevertheless it is good to see how the other half lives.

Can anyone recommend a channel who did a few videos on putting up a shed in detail. Have it in my mind to try and put up a handy basic enough machinery shed myself but a bit nervous as it would be my first time. Would love to watch a few videos with different lads putting one up step by step if they exist?

The fact that Ollie traded in a jcb + 6930 for 155r and got all the brackets changed on the attachments for loader. Then starts demoing handlers and gets manitou and now getting his fodder beat bucket brackets changed again!!! You couldn't make it up!!!

Ollie did? I watched bit of one of his vids, not for me.
Seems a bit young to have that much money or was he spending daddies money?
