[QUOTE="Henarar, post: 7304203, member: 5961"] they put the two fields behind the house here in to corn for the war ag, Dad said they came to thrash it and the thrasher was driven with a steam engine, one chap would arrive really early to get the engine going, Dad said they were a rough lot and would get on the cider fall out and fight like mad come the end of the day. I have helped reed combing but never thrashing, I have cut binds but my job was usually feeding the baler, stacking the bales on the trailer and shovelling the corn back in the trailer, use to jump of the side of the corn trailer over the main drive belt to save walking right round the tractor [fecking nuts], I would have been around 15 at the time [/QUOTE]
