Nice one Olly looks you had a good day ....thanks for sharing

[@grahamkerr7436]

I've been to jcb loadall factory few times. Find it very interesting everyime. 52 seater bus load of farmers from Scotland, get a night out on the town too after factory! Still don't own one though 😂🤦‍♂️It's a true factory with sheets of steel been delivered one end and new machine coming out the other. Not like other manufacturers that have an assembly line of parts made elsewhere!!

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Yes I’ve been round that one to

Building on the right of the lake as you came in to land used to be the village school. It’s now the JCB training school and they built a brand new school to replace it for the village. Old training school is now part of golf course complex Interesting video and amazing company
