We talked about changing a set last year and they're still on. It's good when you don't need the treads, though she'll be like a drift car in the field now

Trying to make a start sowing here. The heavy bits aren't good. In an empty sower. It's been hard to know the last couple of weeks if it's going to get washed away in one of those torrential showers. Was a grand day here until the heavens opened at half five.
Just like 2 years ago forecast always good for next week............ until next week arrives.

Funny I can travel no problem, didn’t find a wet spot today. Only mowed 20 acres in case I got it wrong. Sun is shining her the whole afternoon. Got it all kicked out and it’s dried out lovely.

Red tractor inspection today so thought I'd treat the old girl. Has been a while since it was as clean so might be a few suspicious cows to collect in the morning!!
Probably the cleanest it’s been since day it was put in!

That's one thing we always struggle with is keeping the barn side of the robots clean, we volume wash twice a day but still they get plenty of shite on them, one of the downsides of been in operation 24hrs a day I suppose

Dad would wash the stallwork more than me, usually after I get 'the parlour was always kept cleaner when I was in charge' speech
.No sheds or I might have been interested.
Might be split up, what bit are you wanting so I don't bid again you?

The feeling is I will be retiring 10 years earlier than planned, farming for the fun of it gets tiring, tanker driver tells me any milk returning over the border from manufacturing will have no tariff in either direction
So let's hope we like smp alot

Awkward one that. It's easy to assume it will be milk on the first crossing, but what about after that? The EU have said they will put on tariffs. It they do, there'll be a massive pressure on our government to reciprocate.

No point piddling about with 130 acre, but youself a proper out farm. Sheds and dwelling house already there, 250 cows, 4 robots, farm manager in the house, job done.
Even got your own beach for those hot summer evenings.
