Today at work

[haulmblower]

It's 1. 30am I'm wide awake and my heads buzzing!
I've got to be up at 6am to help my mate, but there is not much chance of me sleeping tonight.
So these pics are actually yesterday at work.
Did some stone separating in the day.

Essential supplies

Now we come to the real reason I'm so happy

Then in the evening i helped milk just under 400 of these beauties from 8.30pm till 12.00am.
And I can do it all again tomorrow night.

Third milking was my thing for 12 years. Finished at around 23:30 every evening and it always took at least an hour to wind down [emoji57]

I only had 90 milkers but we ran 5 milk-rounds as well.

During the busy times (silageing for 3 other farms as well as ours) the normal working day started at 07:00 with the morning milker who later in the day drove the chopper starting at 05:30. Midday milking was done by the assistant from the processing and bottling dairy - happy days [emoji41]

Finished knocking this together for a mate yesterday, A canoe trailer based on an old caravan chassis

The frames all separate so only the required number of cross supports need be fitted and it all breaks down to fit into a single long bag like tent poles. It will take up to 8 canadian style canoes.

Looks good, I think it definitely knocks my evening project into the bodge thread. I wont even take a picture until I've put the front wheel of the tractor onto it to make it straight
Bent hurdles, ex freezing works scrap, its going to be a swing-away drenching race.. hopefully..

Bit of this on the maize ground today. First time using a teagle spreader and very impressed. Spread pattern seems much better than Ktwo and ECE we've used before.

Do you need a screen to pull a set of Cambridge rolls?

Yes. Latest technology here....

 

[Great In Grass]

Yes. Latest technology here....

I'm impressed that the NH could pull the rolls and power the screen at the same time.
