I better EDIT that!

[blue power]

busy day getting a few logs cut up before the weather turns

 

[holwellcourtfarm]

got the same job to do here as well and a new coupling as well
where did you get your parts from ?

I picked them up from GT Towing, they're about 5 miles from here. They have a fantastic stock and know those old trailers inside out.

The trailer plate doesn't have a year of manufacture on it so I wasn't sure it's age. Apparently those Alko brakes were only fitted from 1989 to 1992.

Ditto. Sell a lot of trailers and generally very competitive on pricing, but not much interested in backup. When I did the brakes on mine last year I got the parts from local Vapormatic stockist. Who had everything in stock and could tell me what I needed off the top of his head.

I assume you are going to move the meter rather than have a bespoke hanging meter cupboard

Must look into getting those see through tote bags for the firewood, they look the biz.

Yes, will go the official route first, then depending on quote decide what course of action to take

Booster is a bt home hot spot 600 and the camera is an iegeek, off Amazon, runs on an app called sricam on any android or apple. The fold yard is about 30 metres from the house so I have a booster in the office linked to a booster in the fold yard then an extension running the camera. The boosters don’t like extensions, they want a wall plug and use your electric circuit to exchange data, luckily the buildings are all connected to the house. Also make sure your booster is compatible with your WiFi hub thingy

Don't forget to yell "Mint Sauce!" At them at regular intervals.

Just to keep them on their toes.

The past few days

Collected some telegraph poles.
Luckily we could come back over the moor tracks...

Replaced some posts in a mates fence. 6"x6"!

Wandering around on the intakes.
Took this photo shortly before I fell into a hole full of water.
Wet up to my waist...

I think Nell wanted to go somewhere...

Shuffled calves around this morning.
In amongst rounding up escaped horses and goats...

Bought 5 more calves this afternoon.

Hopefully I can just say things like
Push
Lick the bugger then
Stand still and let’em suckle

I did say hello and they all pricked their ears

Not me because I don't work anymore remember
Mrs KP in the work ute, 30 degrees and a drought, she can still find mud to play in

Meanwhile at home, put some swan plants in to attract Monarch butterflies to teach the rugrats the life cycle thing. Caught this one hanging, about to turn into a chrysalis.

Ifor Williams parts guy told us that the year of manufacture is the first two, or last two (sorry can't remember which) digits of the serial /chassis number (if it's got one)
