That looks like fun mate! Good weather for it too. Did you manage 24 hours solid?

aye we went 24 hours solid

great pictures, my old boss would go ape ploughing snow into the ground, because on heavy clay it would just keep the soil temp too cold!!!

aye we asked the farmer will we stop but he said keep going so..

Thanks for posting Murray. did you do it to raise money for a charity or was it just for fun?

not a problem. well we raised over 1500 pounds i think. some is going to a charity i think, and the rest will be going into the young farmers club!

tht sounds like it was a good little event you had did you do it in shift like 12 hours each

cheers next one will be muck or slurry. eh we each got a shot put it that way maybe one got 2 hours the next got 3 hours works better than having one person doing nothing for 12 hour
