No need of new wellies any more. @matthew gave me an idea for retreading with an angle grinder, over on the HSE thread.
That, and plastic bags on my feet, and my wellies will last for years now.
But yes, most things go round in cycles of fashion.

I've watched some " modern homesteaders " doing just that on Youtube. Mind you they are only milking a couple of cows or goats.Dont think you will ever see anyone milking by hand again

Ransomes experimented with a electric crawler connected to a electric pole in the centre of the field....they kept ploughing through the cable but still they was 50 yrs or so to early with their ideaAye, John Deere are getting all excited about its latest electrical tractor with a bit of wire connecting to the mains. The Russians (or it could have been in Sweden) tried it around 100 years ago.
