jdc Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 They've packed in pretty well and were laid in the summer so were a bit soft so fused together a bit with the vibrating roller. There's a bit loose on top but sound underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Well, the first landwork of 2013. Managed to start applying some nitrogen to the OSR , WB and poorer wheats. Unfortunately I could manage all the fields and still have about 40ha to cover when it dries up more. Renault and spreader in wheat - a bit soft. Heading out of the yard. Filling up. This 8ha field climbs 150 feet In the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn'nt push me anywhere! It's a big drag up or down hill. How much land have ye John? I have 160ha but look after another 61ha for a neighbour. Land looks lovely and dry John, hardly making any ruts! And you're drilling as well, New Holland looks very smart It's just borderline as it's still wet underneath in places. Nice photos and updates John....nice change to be back on the land again I'll bet Seems like a long, long time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 I know at least a couple of people on here interested in poultry - I'm not particularly, but here are some pics. of TT's poultry. I'm looking after them whilst she's off globe-trotting again. Just taken with my phone whilst feeding them. Cyril, who didn't like the look of my phone! This could be a Black Rock type she bred herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMB Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Just thought of a serving suggestion- mole kebab --{}-{}-{}-{}-- And I've been catching around 6 of these wee pests every day. In addition to keeping the pigeons and swans off the OSR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have plenty trousers. looks like a slewtic bucket and brush? did they deliver direct to you?It is a Slewtic, but I had to go through my dealer.

jdc Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Been a busy old summer, but won't bore you with pics of the same old machinery. I hired this for a few days - shifted a lot of muck! Hauled this out of retirement to rip up the bits that lay wet all year. Bomford subsoiler. Unfortunately pulled up a lot of these.. But at least I had some company in the combine! Drilling some second wheat in October. I had the NH remapped and it makes a big difference, both on fuel consumption and power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
