Thanks Roy.

He uses more straps to hold his trousers up than a load of bales

Decided let the big guns have a go at ex potato land that supposed to be going into sugar beet. Pity I can’t upload a video it would show how good the machine is,

where it is working I could barely walk so much so where I was standing filming I got stuck and the driver drove up beside me so I could get out . It is lovely silty easy working land. It’s a jd9620rx.

To my untrained eye, aren't you just stirring porridge up?

I've done bits like that but we haven't got owt to pull a machine so I've got an old sumo leg attached to the tracked digger an sometimes you just need to let the puddles away . But yes unless it's gonna be drying up after you sometimes make it worse

You would think so. This silt land has sealed itself and the water cannot penetrate through it. As long as we dont get another deluge it will let the water go and some air in. The tractor carried amazingly well in the conditions.

Been a various sort of day, few hours in A&E due to Drs that shirked they’re responsibility

Then made it home in time to get the last field Glypho’d before the impending rain ☔️

I’m training pup to sleep on the post knocker seat, she’s got the hang of it but when she wakes up she ends up here wanting a lift down

How’s the leg?

 

[ARW]

How’s the leg?

It’s going well thanks, I’m in the gym 3 nights a week building muscle well. Still lacking some range but it couldn’t be going better, I’m well ahead of schedule but I’ve still a long way to go. I’m just generally weak and have some endurance to build back in my whole body

He is after a easy life

About an hour before milking I happened to notice the scraper wasn’t parked up at the end of the building. Burst pipe. Yay!!
Anyway, fortunately I had a spare length of hose and some oil. An hour and a half later and it seems to be ok.

Think it must have heard me last week on the phone requesting a quote for a rope scraper

Some signs of impending spring here.

Only a week early for the calf but it looks fine.

The joys of a robot. Cow has a weird teat so I figured I'd help her before teaching a heifer. Take a look at the time, she took 20 minutes in the end.

Finally things are drying up to spread shiit.

As it turns out I have a gay catcouple, they are both toms.
