Tidy farm yards

Sometimes you get away with it, if you remember to get the bread, milk and eggs too. 😀

Same as that here.

I can walk in the Sunday shoes all year round. Hate a messy yard.

but everyone to their own liking

I know a few lads like that too, but I wouldn't let them in my house with them shoes after! 🤣

the bord bia man called to my home farm, and a few neighbours, and was a good man to point out faults. Our farm would be very tidy, and books kept properly, yet he seemed to take joy in pointing out faults.

He did not realise that the company I work with would have done work at his own farm. rubbish and shít everywhere. disgusting. Yet I'm sure his own bord bia inspection went well ...

I find it helps if you have a place for everything. Not easy, but if you know exactly where to return something to after using, it even reduces the stress of finding something again.

Also having a designated spot for every machine helps too. Having said all that, my place is still a mess. 😀

My bored bia man put no pass on my medicine book being sparse for dosing.

The way he talked I figured he was following what little I was putting up on social media and had his head in the zone before he came here.

Put up something outrageous on your YouTube channel Siamsa and you'll have all the bored bia inspectors clued in before the inspection.

Yeah it's close to impossible, kinda renders the JFC bin as useless.

Who would have thought some old silage wrap could be sought after. 😁

The double wrap, might work although, it seems to "stick" to the barrel wrap, where it used to slide off the net.

Same as that. Done a good bit of building work in the last few years and I have a mountain of them and they are gone too wet and rotten for kindling. I’m thinking a few trips to the recycling centre might be the place for them. From now on I hope to store in a shed and cut for kindling when there is a manageable number.

FRS had the large bags for there recycling system, but the silage bag cheapest of all

They don't take "Free state" pallets, as they wouldn't burn!! 😂

On the jfc tidywrap. It took me a while to get a method of separating the wrap from the bale with the barrel wrap. Instead of trying to take off the wrap with the prongs of the loader like before where it just slid up, if you put in the prongs in the top of the bale so when you lift it up you are pulling a bit of silage too. When there’s a bit of pressure on the wrap, get out and start pulling or rolling up the plastic from the bottom. You only have to go up a small bit with it before it’ll lift off cleanly because of the pressure you have on it with the prongs. Grabbing the bit of silage stops the plastic ripping at the top when the pressure comes on

Lads if ye are stuck for wraps I can sell a few, I have way more than I need. €5 + P&P 😉

There's no way of stopping that really. Suits the house as well.

I was on a loader there last year and from what I could tell it was me against the auctioneer. He was flying through lots and he spent 30 to 40 seconds trying to see if I'd go on when i stopped. I didn't. Fxck that.

I had probably shown my hand by asking him to measure the holes on it the day ahead to be sure of fitment. He volunteered what the reserve was as well (more than it was worth) and I suppose I should have told him forget it so because not saying it probably gave him the idea that I was fine with it.
