    It's to do with friction and not enough lubrication in the injection pumps or something yes?
    Would a drop of two stroke sort that out?

    Was that barley straw, talked to a man the other day that got €33 ex shed for it, went north of the border

    Yes barley. It was back in august now.

    They are fair handy for feeding in front of slatted shed, just land a bale between two pens and leave it out about a foot with only one or two twines taken off, very little is dragged in then. Leave half a bale of silage either side then.

    Wear gloves, prevention is better than cure

    Dettol or similar works as well
