[QUOTE="DrDunc, post: 6883979, member: 615"] I grew up lifting hundred weight bags of fertiliser off the lorry, stacking them, then lifting then all into the spreader It was a skill to lift the hundred weight and a half sacks of barley up onto your shoulder to carry them up the barn stairs to the hopper for the bruiser Throwing a dozen or so hundred weight wafers onto the front of a tractor is, by comparison, childs play. I'm a big fella as a result of the work involving weight lifting as a boy, but I now walk funny, dodgy hips, and knees that burn when the weather changes. I also regularly need my back tweaked to realign wandering discs. Looking back, the time and effort of all the manual labour was utter madness ? Having recently bought a tractor with front links, I can honestly say it's a pleasure to ballast that tractor, and I doubt if the novelty will ever wear off ?? [/QUOTE]
