Fixed the escort beacon rotator

 

[Adeptandy]

Started harvest today

Then stopped again, 12.5% is a tad high, best it managed 4 hours later was still over 10%
still found a few issues to sort tomorrow, so not all bad

 

[Muddyroads]

Gave the new toy a bit of work to bed her in ahead of more planting next week:

Then had what I now refer to as a “Robert K moment”!

 

[Hesstondriver]

Baled some “dry grass” ! Not exactly quality hay , although I’m sure Shergar would be pleased to see it !

 

[Pan mixer]

a small number of bales of new hay to add to the shed, it looks very green compared to the stuff that I had left over.

Someone I know contributed "A ride in a combine" to a charity auction, and couldn't believe how much was bid!
I think he made it a bit of a day for them in the end, and they loved it.

Not even joking that I've had folk ask if we had any "fluffy" calves as they would pay £10 to brush it and feed it. I'd happily take £100 for three hours driving the old Qt with me supervising something like rolling or discing. £150 and I'd chuck in some case overalls with their name embroidered on.

Wonder if were missing a little side income trick here as farmers.

 

[bovrill]

And then you get the likes of that bloke who came on here looking for some 'alone time' in a slurry pit! (And willing to pay!)

 

[Beames]

Dropped this guy off to his new home this afternoon

And then gave the new stock man a lesson on moving calves.

 

[Adeptandy]

Few jobs on the combine then started to tidy up the ex OSR fields cut yesterday. 2 more still to do, but moisture was to high still ?
