Hardly a contractor left round here who will do bits like that, I love that type of land, Looking forward to getting back on the boat and down the coast towards castle douglas.

How many horses for 2 x 10 foot? Would you recommend a Kubota?

 

[Stw88]

its a 151 but boosts to 170hp. There just plain mowers but it just plays with them. Would have another one, smooth and not overly complicated.

And here,,piece on the local news last night looking at over grown road sides and verges ,,only bits that had been cut were blind corners ,,the wild flower bots convincing the councils to stop cutting road sides back

Can never remember, what’s the rules about cutting road side hedges these days, got some lanes I need to do really as when wet it’s making the lane narrow and unsafe.

Finally got the solar pump thingy plumbed in and fired up, and blow me down with a feather, it works . No more hauling water to this field !
