  1. Bit of DIY today after a long week. 12,000 conventional bales in the barn, the last 1000 odd two of us stacked last night finishing at midnight. Still got 70 acres to do..... No idea where it will all go!! Some will be loaded directly ok to the artic for me to take to Wales I expect. Big crop, Barry. Been a good year for grass. Where is the new job goibt to take you then chap?

    Egad! That puts my little 2000-odd gathered this week into perspective and I'm still recovering from that!

  2. Had a meeting about the future of the farm and how we procede with wind down and arranged another meeting next week to sort out what is going into the farm sale later in the year.

    ( I know where a real County 944 will be sold in the near future) ammongst other vintage machinary and implements ;)

    Will the land be auctioned at a later date Scott?

  3. Today as with the last two days, I'll be shaking out hay. We've thirty odds acres in the barn, 50ish cut and of that about thirty shaken out. That will be shaken out once more today by me, then rowed up by another chap for the balers. While I go on shaking out tomorrows work twice. In all, 200ac to do but this week we'll aim to bale up until tomorrow and then look at the weather as it is mean't to change.

    Fleet this year is:

    6180 mowing.

    390 shaking out.

    399 on haybob.

    698 and 6160 baling.

    165 Farmhand loading.

    590, 290 x2, 390 trailering.

    JCB 531-70 on a 12 plate unloading at the barn.

    Is that Wiltshire-speak for tedding Tris? ;)

    Still waiting for calls from two farms to do bale trailering/stacking
