Today at work

[smcapstick]

Against the doctor’s orders, I had to nip down to work to park some of the tractors inside.

The mighty MF 298 will have to wait for a picture, though - I have just swapped phones and the pictures I took have not transferred. Oops!

Dad carried on combining and I got on with some more baling.

Bazooka not producing as much straw or grain as cassia and is breaking up much more, still 7.5 5ft bales an acre so not to bad.

Then had a fish and chip tea on the harvest field, wifey even brought me beer.

Looks perfect, sunshine, freshly cut field, bales of straw, fish and chips and a beer!

Day three in winter barley. Plenty of dust. Dad returned at lunchtime yesterday. He'd been in North Norfolk for a week and the first combine he had seen all week including driving back was me. I've subsequently been relegated from doing everything to just grain cart and storeman. Just like a championship team moving up to the premier league, and going straight back down. Wonder if I'll get a parachute payment.

I suppose it just depends which areas you travel through. 8 telegraph poles in this field.

Brilliant pictures, nothing quite like stopping for tea with the family, always makes harvest special.

Couldn't you open that gate and let them on that lawn?

 

[Karliboy]

On this job again today
Thankfully it’s the last day as I’ve now run out of the blooming stuff which I can’t really believe as I’ve always got some somewhere

I need something else to spread now.
Think I’ll get some lime ordered.

Ooooops

Not even mine! I was helping someone else out with their hives, we'd finished, walked back to the truck and one follower decided to attack. She got lucky on her fourth swoop on me.

Had the same with hyvido, straw smashed to bits but it is yielding more grain than the glacier. Better bit of ground mind
