Amazing how that drum worked from inside,, bet there had been a few hundred hours of brain work just to work out how to make it work. Suppose thats why theyre not a cheap machine. Nice seeing you look more happier today. The strains of harvest can realy get to you so just take time for yourself too. Great work as usual fro. All the team. 60% today.

Hi Olly & the gang, I like the fact you give your % . I don't farm myself but I am in contact with my local farmers daily as I am a volenteer warden for a famous midland racetrack & work in the countryside looking after the gronds in other ways. I think this feeling % would work for outher country folk too!! I currently running about 70% . keep it going.
