Do you have to get a host of people to do road duty when you move them Marshboy? I know here it's all hands to the deck even if just crossing the lanes. Usually need at least two on road duty stopping the traffic, someone in front to hold the stock up if need be and someone else behind to drive them.

Hard as a rock all round it, just give it a push with the tele while I left it in gear. Attachments:

Oh I meant my own marsh road we call it, they never go near the roads, I'm in a ring fence so it's easy tho not easy to expand. Never take a tractor on road either. It's all done so I can do it myself.

Reached for the 3cx then, and still couldn't shift it, finished up lifting chisel plough off and then out she came, have to be able to jump out the digger quick tho to run to the other one to put out of gear before it catches you. Won't bother washing it it will dry off and the drop off in the sheds and all through the yard next time I drive it ;D Attachments:

The latest one, thank you mr vink. The mother is a very special animal, wasn't sure about keeping her really as not that big but v solid, but she had an unparalleled nature, never been treated any different to any other, but you can do anything with her, I could easily call her and she would follow me round the yard like a dog, so couldn't not keep her really. Once she spots you even from the far corner of the field she bounds over. Blooming glad it worked out alright really. Attachments:

Wish I would have bulled then for Feb calving really in hindsight been mixed luck calving between Sept and Xmas before but at least I have Dr. Rispoval working for me now. The joy never changes same now as when my first ever cow calved, wonder if it's the same for the people with 1000 plus cows. Attachments:

And one more of him, he's been out on a season long loan deal, for about six months haven't seen him since just after this photo , I will probably recall him when the Jan. transfer window opens, I hope that means he is not cup tied tho Attachments:
