35 YEARS OF BALING & STILL GOING STRONG

[@patodwyer721]

Back in the days when Father Phil could stop off at the shop for an ice cream without having to sign autographs and have his foto taken, simple times back then 😂 Nice one Phil

[@GijsRupert]

These story’s we love. Really special. Keep these story’s a live.

[@ghostrider7688]

9:44 A lot simpler and better times back then 👍🏻 Lovely Leitrim . Great to see that Farmer sticking with Stewart Agri far all these years ! Says a lot about the contractor 👍🏻

Enjoy the vid Diane 👍🏻

[@Modlendingen]

The Landini was flying! :)

[@MrShaggerohara]

Superb video Farmer Phil, even clocked an old mobile phone on the dash of the Landini, wasn’t half enough videos taken back in the day

[@philleggitt3005]

So good to hear the stories, great to have such a long term relationship with the same farms, knowledge of field postion & the varying ground conditions...Priceless...

[@andrewmaccall5871]

Great bit of farm history there. Look back to the past and ahead to the future - great stuff.

[@westcoast5934]

Early Nineties I recall slinging two sand bags across the bonnet of a MF 133 when drawing bales 🤣🤣

[@patrickcormack7637]

Great video and great to have a good machine 2 of them in the family

[@Benic1991]

There's just something about those old Landini tractors that look real nice 👌

[@alanpugh8192]

Farmer Phil nice to hear about how father Phil started up 35 year ago and the tractors he had good video as all your videos are thank farmer Phil

[@adriansheehan360]

Goodman phil, great see the history and the change of machinery, great that you have same loyal customers over the years, keep videos coming

I love this vidio Phil special older video with farther Phil how time's changed the timescale are a changing 👏

[@MrShanbla]

2 lovely masseys drawing in there aswell!!

[@johnsweeney1712]

Great video, interesting to compare the equipment from the ‘80s to now… the 7618 has redeemed itself after the leak repair & suits better where access into the fields is a challenge with the 6499. I hope the Stewarts are baling those fields in 2058, might be all electric Masseys on the job by them. Keep up the good work.

[@goldfire1676]

Great video loved the old chat of35 years ago your ageing good Phil

[@ghostrider7688]

16:48 Great video Phil . Good thinking , very interesting to hear the background n history of yer contracting 👍🏻 Stick er out 👍🏻

[@Fireman9ify]

That landini was a fine tractor 35 years ago, brave set up at the time. And i saw him flashing the mobile phone in one video, that was something else at the time and bloody expensive.

[@a.gphotographyagri2975]

Great video Phill , keep them coming 👌🏼🚜💪🏼

[@kt3537]

Great video....nice to see the 35 out working 🤠

[@user-rw2um8ro2p]

Great video Phil and what a great story I loved that little 35 they are a great tractor I had a good laugh at the brick telephone in the cab I had one of them back in 93 loading straw and grain in a new Volvo l90 b jaysus I taught I was the bees knees 😂😂you couldn’t even put it in your pocket 😂😂

[@stephenmeehan9961]

Great to have good customers like that in contracting as that was the way it was years ago and somehow they had money ready the day you done the work back in the day too. 35 got it tight with the bales at the first size back then and remember a couple of 56 pound weights getting tied used the front axle but the later sized bales ended the 35 and 135 moving wrapped bales

[@Valmet361]

Great stories about baling. we started making silage in 1982 and baling in 2005

[@barrymallon9373]

Get vid today phill. Good to look back!!!!

[@davay42]

I can remember the first time I saw silage baled beside me the old boyused the wife as a wight block on a 35🤣😂🤣

[@andrelorentsen5014]

Hello from Northern Norway! Incredible that your McHale have gone more than 80000 bales and still going strong. Are you aming for 100000. 😀

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

That’s the plan

[@MrConman750r]

Just love anything to do with vintage farming, do show more clips of vintage machinery/ tractors in action in the future 👌 ( love to hear them sucking pure diesel )

[@douggilroy1188]

Surely you need a classic landini in the fleet for old time sake? It looks class.

[@roberthiggins6401]

Have you managed to get a combine sorted Phil? Or are you using a contractor this year?

[@homey3051]

Cracking video as always.

[@towel2473]

That tune in the background at about 4-5mins. Pure iradio special 😂 was up and down the length and breadth of the n4 between 2009 to 2015, and I swear that's all that station ever had on 😅. 100% you're an aul iRadio enjoyer and that's who was was playing it 😂

[@johnhayes4110]

Great vedio Phil, when did your Dad get the first wrapper ,I'm taking a guess would it have been a Tanco with a 500 ml Bale Dispenser on it ,

Nice to see the fell coming back to ye every year

[@Hillfarmlamb]

Great video as always up leitrim your on the good ground now😂😂😂luckily father phil wasn't down this way in 1985 we buck racked 30 acres into a pit because it was to wet for single chop fields looked like they were ploughed after it was finished

[@seanmcguigan346]

That was one bad year

[@Hillfarmlamb]

@@seanmcguigan346 I just remember it I was 7 remember tractors with twin wheels backing around the field and into yard one tractor stayed in yard pushing up to minimise muck in pit make for good viewing now if ya had it 😂😂

[@williamdonohoe6842]

I don’t remember it but heard stories, bits of pits of silage everywhere in corner of fields terrible year

Did ye get the music from Nolan episode on farmflix?

[@TheElectricgamez]

exactly what I was thinking aswell Do you perhaps know the name of the song? I've been searching since day 1 for it but haven't found it yet

[@FARMERPHIL3690]

Song details are in the description of the video
