Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Neighbour rang me last night to know if I wanted a free load of small bales. Grand, I said. Helped him stack and load them last week and his barn is well full up at this stage. I took them home straight away, fresh out of the baler, never stacked and left them loose in an open shed. Glad to have them.

They have huge flexibility. If I could get them or straw I always like to have 100 of them every 3-4 years. They are handy at any stage where you have an animal or two in the shed. Along with a few kgs of ration it gets you through a week rather than messing with breaking up a round bale. Buy invariably you get tight some spring and feed themSlava Ukrainii

I was forking (we say in east Clare
) them up last week and the neighbours brother stopped me, "2 at a time" he says. So 2 of us forked them up together. Not a bother. I was keeping an eye on him as we worked, as he's just turned 80. It wasn't me that was getting winded first, I can tell ya.:D
Seriously though, two people forking them in unison is a great job.'If I ventured in the slipstream, Between the viaducts of your dream'

Sorry Patsy, I'm a sucker for detail.....
When you said load is that a barrow load, a transport box load, a 10x6 load or a 20x8 load 7 or 8 row high?
Either way, fair play to that man. He has heart of Gold. And you must be an equally good neighbour to him.0 -

Oh, big tractor trailer and as high as we could fork them. I have a bad back and once I don't overdo things it doesnt give me trouble. We even had other lads bringing the bales in near the trailer and we would stand there just forking away. Super job.
As for good neighbours, I often think it goes back to the old days when people always helped each other out. 'Meitheal' I think they called it.'If I ventured in the slipstream, Between the viaducts of your dream'
