This is my kind of silage making!! Get the chaps in with their big boys toys and let the machinery do the work. We used to make a lot of hay into little bales and as theres only Chris and I it was back breaking work. Now we give our friend David a ring, who gives his friend Tim a ring, and they come along and see to it!! Its wonderful. They will be ready for a pint in the Hopper tonight!!
This afternoon they have both been mowing the grass on the other holding we have at Fewston, tomorrow morning they will turn it and then either late tomorrow or Sunday it will be baled and wrapped. After this Chris will make a stack and it will sit and wait for winter.
All was going well today until David hit a stone with the mower and its completely sheared off the blade!! He wasnt too happy when I saw him at half past three but new parts are arriving in the morning and he'll be on his way again. It could have been worse I guess!
