Had to push the muck up in the yard to set up hurdles for sorting cattle today. 11 less in this yard now. Limo thinks he's king.

I was power harrowing
and the Earth move for me today.
Little hole appeared behind the powerharrow (I thought to myself bloody badges) so I got out and had a look it wasn’t them it was this a big hole as appeared in is field. I put a tape measure down to 7.5 Metres and the tape ran out.

Started rolling what I did yesterday with the new-to-me rolls from @Robert K. Wide, heavy (and used to be clean). Doing a good job.

Once round and a call from the good lady to say she had a ewe in difficulties. Got back just after she’d managed to get the lamb out.

Pretty good going for a lady who hadn’t set foot on a farm until 5 years ago and has spent the last 34 years working in IT. You can’t just switch sheep off and on again if they go wrong! 😁

As I understand it they automatically power off randomly for any number of reasons. It’s the turning them on bit that is the tricky but nobody has mastered yet.
