Looks like u gonna be chomping some grass Dave !

Cheers Paul , not sure yet all depends on who comes up with the best prices ! We do have a 718 coming for definate !!!

Wel thankfully the weather's been half sensible the last 4 or 5 days , getting on the ground now without too much disruption, we getting over silage grounds now with some nitrogen , the ploughs are catching up and the stubbles been steadily ripped up , starting get some muck heaps spread on grass grounds where the sheep have just come out from , looking at possibly letting the cows out to graze by day in the next week , weather depending !! Things in the office have been going at a rapid rate as last week saw the black 724 and 6210r sole off , so now number crunching to see about other alternatives in the coming weeks !!

Good to see you back in the swing of the things Paul

An overdue update , jobs starting to stack up now with the changeable weather over the last 2 weeks , the ploughs just starting to move again , trouble is trying to find a dry enough ground , can't see the point in turning over already wet and stodgy ground . Managed to get out with a bit of fertaliser end of last week again having to be careful where we tread , but at least the wheels are rolling . Last Monday saw Smarts agri bring up the new 8330 fastrac , nice bit of kit that , she sits nicely alongside the smaller fastrac !! 1st job for her to take the slew around ready for the start of cleaning 2 miles of ditches , which are starting to fill up . Weather forecast looking a bit better for the week so with a bit of luck a chance to keep things moving on

Yeah tis smart , haven't tried to take cab off yet !

Good to see you back Paul , like the update !!!

Nice update Dave ! Snap I gotta new fastrac aswell , did u have much trouble getting a driver in the cab

Like the pictures Dave ! Top job

Jesus Dave u gotta contract for all of the south !!!

Nice line up Dave ! Get they pictures sorted !!

Cheers Dave , no I didn't , did you ?

Cheers Paul , 1st 1 for a while

Finally a few good days of weather forecasted for next week , we've had customers ringing up for umbilical and tankers for the last 2 weeks , urgently wanting there lagoons and dirty water ponds bailed out , trouble is with a lot of the ground saturated already it's been a right pain on some farms finding some suitable ground to travel on ! The ploughs getting ready to go , in the workshop awaiting new metal , with 300 acres booked in hopefully for the next couple weeks , especially with frost's forecast later in the week , we can get on with the jobs booked in , also stubble cultivator ready for ripping up some maize stubble , again weather permitting ! Back in the yard the lorry having a good pressure wash as he'll be off hauling straw for most of next week , also hedgetrimming coming to an end soon , just around 350 hours left to do ! lots to do as usual just waiting for a helping hand from mother nature !!

Happy new year to you Dave , good to see the chaps are back to work !!

Cheers buddy ! And you

Just a little catch up from what's been happening over the last couple weeks before we enter yet another year ! With the yard now running at full capacity after upgrading sheds and altering around the workshop brand new state of the art office block and adding a cold store and incorporating a brand new spray shed ,things now moving with the ever evolving business ! Few more details to improve n the coming weeks , All up to date on the work front with loads of straw being delivered to the dairy unit on a weekly basis aswell as local customers . 1 load of nitram turned up on Friday ,just in time for the last working day of the week . The new m series also was delivered by Smarts Agri on sat morning to the delight of its operator , the weekend very quiet just pottering around the yard having a brush around with the loadall ! From all of us at Orchard we would like to wish u all a Happy new year fellow enthusiasts !!
