All of these wonderful photos and I am stuck I'm my 2 bed semi, finishing off the last few bits on projects before I am furloughed. Planning work has just hit a brick wall until the light is at the end of the tunnel.
Seeing all you working away, keeping the rural economy running and food on our tables brightens up my days.
Any photo requests?! :D
I'd love to see all these barns you are looking for a planning consultant to do a Class Q application on.

Seriously though, I love seeing the wide range of activities going on; most of which I don't understand (no idea on arable)!

Off for a bit of reclamation work, tackling a failed attempt at a vineyard

You can't see how rough it is. Apparently it was ploughed about 3 years ago, but it feels more like tackling baulks in places.
Give Simba their due, they made a solid bit of kit for these kind of conditions

Despite it's twisted frame, a second pass is making a fair job

Give it a couple of days to breathe, a run through with the Keeble, then I will be doing what I proclaim to never do, and moan that I need a bit of rain to put the grass seed on!
