Today at work

[JCB_JCR]

Concrete block forced rotor up, and wrecked my wooden block rubber coupling bodge from a year ago, and messed up timing. So rotors off again hopefully new rubber couplings won't take too long to arrive....

I can only imagine the reaction I’m going to get to this, but in my defence I’ve been resisting for for a considerable amount of time. The most important phrase to remember is “happy wife, happy life”!

After work this week been replacing an old collapsed one with 138m of 4” twin wall. Resembled paschendale at one point and I did get the excavator stuck last night. Which involves copious amounts of swearing, sleepers and logs. Dad did ask how we get the timber out I said in about July 2030 when it’s dried up but he could go and drag them out if he was that concerned, he decided the random old bits of timber weren’t suddenly that important

You use the same terminology as me when questioned like that generally it gets downgraded to something that can be "done another day"

12ish cows and calves put with bull. Safer for all if they go outside before bully starts to play his little games. 2 acre field. Might be a bit muddy in a couple of days.

Almost looks like the same lorry went to @Adeptandy first then @Bob lincs afterwards.....and then each of you posted consecutively about it!

Interesting to see both using Bailey trailers on the inlet.

They said they’d been to a dodgy place before they came here

Not really

Least you'll know which farmer to blame for any of the weeds that grow in the crop this year!

They were at Bobs before they came here by the looks of it, were heading back to Colchester when they left me

They are a really good company, very quick and don’t leave any mess to clear up .

I only rang them on Wednesday and asked if they had a cleaner in the area and the answer was no problem see you Friday morning. One of the guys told me they have 32 of these machines share a colour sorter with another company and are have another colour sorter built at the moment to be based at Scunthorpe.

They cover a huge area too. Happy to come all the way out over here. Same chap/lorry also goes to the Isle of Wight for a group of farmers.

Did it come with the front weight or you have to source it yourself

 

[Flossie]

The obligatory 'kitchen lamb' has arrived (the clattery one from weekend). He's improved in 24 hours but there's a niggling feeling he's a bit 'special'

Lots of other fun things too. Lambed the prolapse, a hung lamb, adopting a triplet onto a dead single, cow with milk fever, a bit more rain and a bit of sun too
All sorted out by the end of milking

And a nice single to finish on
