While the lads are of the other side we have broken the 185 out to start baling, usally on yard dutys, but needs must, shes using the  mf124 baler and cooks flat 8 sledge we invested in recently to speed up bale handling

These pictures show M.Murray contracts busy cutting their own 20acre of spring wheat. first picture shows the combine entering the field attaching the header. the JD6920s is used for carting grain with the 10ton fraser and the 5410 will be a back up with the 5ton trailer. the other drivers with the 2 7530's were busy putting out slurry and muck at the time ;)
