[QUOTE="Doing it for the kids, post: 7389103, member: 50712"] Just finished loading a lorry and noticed he didn’t have a right arm when he arrived. said he passed his test in October and was still learning. I was at first surprised to see him driving an artic but I had an hr to mull it over. he seemed very capable but it was hard work closing his door, I used my elbow to help him. it made me think about how his disability must affect him and how he seems to overcome it. could you farm with such a disability? I recall at college one of the practical instructors could cope with the old Jcb set up but not the new electrics lever ones not so well When I took my test. harder with livestock than arable but I can’t think of many examples where both arms are needed for some of the time. I bet many in here have found a way around these things, curious how though? [/QUOTE]
