Leakeyvale Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 We had about 3 inches overnight and has stopped but it's below freezing so the roads may not be too good. I'll post some pics later. I must get the dogs walked and it is a chance to test my new snow boots! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.watson Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 how do all. have been uot on JCB today clearing snow, we had 6 inches here overnight. car drivers are pleased to see the farming community out clearing the roads, but the same car drivers will be honking horns and making rude jestures when they are sat behind our combine at harvest. it does make me chuckle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke (DeWitt) Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 You guys can all keep the snow on your side of the pond!! There is none here so far, just what was piled up from last time. Today I am moving some hay between barns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Pics of my snow as promised. It is still lying but is now looking rather messy. When I went out with the dogs I saw that a rabbit or perhaps a hare had been mooching around my front doorstep! Snow is great for tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenside MF Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Been to a job interview this morning for putting up sheds and garden buildings all over the u.k,I'm probably over qualified with all my kitchen fitting and interior construction skills.I got the job,the wages are crap and I feel just like one of morrissey's lyric's 'I was looking for a job then I found a job and heaven knows I'm miserable now ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 The weather we've been having, you'll miss applying your skills on interiors! Naa, go for it bud. Jobs a Jon at the end if the day. For me today, another load of hay up to Lampeter. Filled the lorry up on the way back...... £890 odd quid!! Then back to the yard empty and loaded up for Cheffins, cabs, wheels, tyres, mechanical parts, all the usual guff. Started today at 03.45 and tomorrow will be much the same for a non stop punt up to Sutton and the sale ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Been mucking out the store cattle today with my colleague, he does the forklift side and I do the carting so we can get it done quicker. We also had to fertility test the two bulls and that makes our eyes water every year when the vet does it Got a day off tomorrow to go to a clearance auction at our local MF/Fendt dealership where we've also entered some machinery, just hope it sells as I don't fancy dragging it back again!

Luke (DeWitt) Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Well the snow finally showed up so i am suppose to learn how to run a friends plow truck so I can plow for him since he leaves on vacation tomorrow. Sure enough they are calling for 3-5 more inches of snow tomorrow so I guess I better learn fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
