To be honest, i get a bit annoyed with you when we dont have an update for a while.

Havn't seen that workshop or the big plasma table you moved in lately........... just saying.

Keep it up @ORRA LOON!

 

[ORRA LOON]

Thanks lads, I will try and keep you all happy .
@jamesy Are you in the coastguard as well as the fire service?
We had to call them out last night as a dog on a retrieve followed a pricked bird over a cliff. We found him after 2 hours on a ledge about 100ft down . The decision was made that it was too dangerous to climb down in the dark by ourselves despite 1 of the lads going to get a rope.

No, I just stick to "Fire Club".

Hope you got the dog back ok & had a good time!

Oh yeah, keep the pictures coming!

Both our tractors are busy at the Christmas trees although not with us driving as we are at other things. I nipped down with some oil today hoping to catch them working.

It started to pee it down so I bailed out before I found the Deutz which is filling the large pallets.

Feeds bins are currently empty with us having no pigs in till mid January, bin 2 started moving a little today in the high winds so my uncle came up with a quick Christmas fix . It will likely sit there till after new year .

Caught up with my brother tonight, he had no idea who's it was as it wasn't a name he recognised on the job card.

Normally they just bore it out then weld in a metal sleeve to suit the standard bush. This 1 was so bad there was nothing left to bore so it was welded up then bored for the sleeve.

Tidy job

Whilst watching the jetter working today my brother asked me if I'd seen his sheep. Wtf is he on about ? We don't have any sheep.
Alloy plate being cut.

Here's his sheep

He has a program for a 6ft high dinosaur as well but is going to cut it out of plywood first to see how it looks.
