    When i go round most of my fields three or four times that's the field done.
    Round and round the "big field" about ten times.

    Keep going round here as well. Got the contractor in for silage ground and he had about 4 runs up where I'd have gone 9 times I'd say

    Couldn't go around really, have to go up and down and actually have to have the dew to see where I am and use the boundary stakes aswell.
