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.
