getthegat Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Yeah the combine is on a field of barley 😀 Pigeons are already taking an interest and it's only been round a couple of times. Getting the urge to bunk off work early tomorrow. Sorted a bundle of mixed cartridges and hoping for a good test of the new Invested arm moderated 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mat Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 There will be plenty of stubble for people to go at round here this week, combines were going late into the night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenholland Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 had a call of the farmer to say he had cut the rape, when I got there the stalks were 2 feet high so I left it not wanting to drive across that, waiting for the wheat to be cut in the next field I went back to have a look and he had turned the rape over not a bird about, so no rape stubble shooting this year .
