Congratulations to you both. You can look forward to many years of fun with the 3 of them. My 2 boys are now 36 so you will survive!
Best wishes.

Following on from the @exmoor dave post - :rolleyes:

There are 3 gooseberry bushes near to the farmhouse. My two sisters and I were (conveniently?) born under different bushes. I always forget about them until it is too late - I see the gooseberries on the ground. :cry:

Got it right last night and pulled 1.6kg of fruit. Some for jam and some for a crumble. :love:

This is also a recipe for gooseberries(it’s not my favourite one)🤮

Seems to be an awful lot of girls being born, I now have 7 grand daughters & still waiting for a grandson, there's going to be some very lucky boys in the future, my mum was one of twins, born at home weighing just two pounds in weight but she must have been a tough little devil even then!

Fitted a hydraulic hand pump onto the 1085 direct connected to the drum speed variator pulley. So now I can vary the drum speed just by leaning out of the window and giving the handle a few pumps. Saved having to buy a new spool valve block and confirmed the problem is in the spool block not the variator pulley. Nice when a plan comes together for a change, even it is a bit “Heath Robinson”. So the 1085 is now fully functional as a back up or can be sold fully functional. So a bit of progress has been made today.
