Our Yorkshire farm... winch

[startinghandle]

Last night on our Yorkshire farm the recovery of the trailer was over dramatised by the commentator when he said the winch would be struggling to pull the wrecked trailer up the steep bank.
The winch would need little effort to do that job

You mean the cable did not reach breaking point, he did talk it up a bit

Made good TV though

Had a fair tear in my eye when Reuben was showing Sid his new Trials bike, that he’d resurrected from a non runner and how he could have sold it on, but would rather Sid had it as he knew how much pleasure it would give his 8 year old brother

Sid took to riding like a natural

I wonder when they'll realize there new trailer is smaller and has no sheep decks

Sid and Reuben are the stars of the show for me, along with little clemmy. I love the bond the 2 brothers have.

Everything is over dramatised for towny viewers on programmes such as these. I do enjoy watching it though.

He didn't hang around afterwards for the cameras.

Typical old boy there to get the job done probably not impressed with cameras

Like the lad mending the hydraulic hoses summing up a lot of my equipment as either bu??ered or knackered. Good to see agricultural terms being passed on to the next generation.

I'm sure that winch would be up to date with safety certificate

Clemmy is a natural with stock and at 4 was fetching the strep for her mum, the other week and not flinching at the gammy eye in a ewe

What we didn't see was how they got the trailer back upright before attaching the winch, it was laid on it's side when Clive and Amanda were inspecting it.

Luckily when they went to recover it there'd been another storm night before and the wind had blown it back over

 

[haybob]

Did the wind blow it into river to start with? Must have been parked very near it to go floating off

Aye, up on the pegs like a good 'un. THis is why Yorkshire has produced the odd, half decent Trials rider over the years....

Mind, Sid did have that little scrambler in the last series, so he had a fair idea.

Difficult to say, it was just seen floating off down the rapids.

looked like a poor replacement for the one that went down the burn

Maybe Graham Edwards rung them and offered a great deal to have one of there trailers on tv
