    Congrats to emaherx our May winner, The robin safety inspector was nicely caught.

    For June we want to see any photo of a sticky situation. Hard to believe we've had 2 weeks of dry weather now, but it wasn't always this dry and no doubt won't always be. So if you see a few noobies heading to the bog for turf and walking back this could be your chance, or if the sight glass at the front of the vac tank breaks while filling with the back window open, or if you make a splash with the agitator.....get the camera/phone out and share.



    There's been a few people complaining about big photos, if you are on a laptop perhaps you have the zoom setting bigger than 100%. Try and re-size them to a medium format on a photo site like flickr etc.

    There is a star shape on the top right of the screen where you type a web address, if you have the magnifying glass icon with a + sign in it, left click on it and select 'reset to default'. This should reduce the photos so that they can be seen on the screen. To increase the font size again hold the CTRL key down and press the '+' key. It's a useful feature to zoom in on photos/DD ads etc.




    Usual rules apply;



    Guidelines-

    Photo must be your own image i.e. taken by you or a family member.
    Photo should conform to this month's theme.
    You may enter more than once (within reason though, not 100 photos please!)
    No chat/banter on this thread please, it will be removed. If you want to discuss what's in the photo take it to chit chat or send a PM to the person who posted it.
    Even if the theme isn't strictly farming related, we would like to see the photos to have some tie to farming.
    No naughty pictures please.
    Final winners will be the photo with the most 'thanks' from a single photo which can be entered any month.

    So there are lots of chances guys!

    Any questions/queries, please PM blue5000

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Picture taken by my brother after he planted 390T in ditch.

    I told him you can't haul bales clean ditches and breast hedges at the same time!
