A collapsed bridge culvert causes flooding and along with storm Henk forces some emergency remedial work. #farmlife #videodiary #oddlysatisfying #workingfarm
Think we will all be digging out bridges this year and replacing the existing pipe with larger bore pipe to get some more flow. Bet we will be looking for rain come 1st April.
Not the best of starts to your New Year on the farm. The old saying of that, it never rains, but it pours comes to mind. Surely, the rains will stop, and things will dry up again. Things can only get better from now on. Great video again, and to watch a proficient operator on the digger, letting the water flow again.
Just come across your channel 👍. We’ve had some hellish waster this winter. The river had flooded our ings fields for about 8 weeks which is unheard of. I’m trying to work out where you are… them hills look familiar 🤔😆
Going be a lot more mole plows and bigger pipes put in a lot of farms I am from essex and a digger driver all I done is ditching and pipe work for last 3 months
Yes it’s certainly been a busy year on the ditching front! To be honest I’ve been on the digger for the last 2 months, with just an odd day on a tractor.
I love a bit of ditching and cleaning up and land drain work when u got nice straight clean ditches u know u normally in with a fighting chance with weather over winter but this winter is far from the normal
Thank you, thought I had to show what was happening now not in another weeks time when we officially go back to work. I hope things alter fast for all of us.
Water table certainly very high now. Foresee your going to be very busy on that digger this spring and future Smaller digger like yours are going to increase in value and steal ability will increase

North east Lincolnshire, near Scunthorpe and Melton
@@JDautopower I wasn’t too far out… I was on for Humberside 😆.
A nice surprise midweek vlog. Great job 👏🏻
Thank you, I wasn’t planning on doing a mid week one, but I thought it had to be shown what was happening.
good job done
Thanks, if we had left it until we officially started back at work the flooding would’ve been worse.
We are exactly the same here up in Aberdeenshire, land is saturated and can’t take any more, tidy job,
Thanks, no part of the country are being left out, unfortunately

Lovely job, new subscriber here. Best crack on with catching up with all your previous video's

Good video.

Thanks.
You know it's been wet for months when you get algae growing on the soil🙈💦
Definitely wet I was your end was mental weather
Where's the pipe
Unfortunately it got smashed digging it out, it was an old glazed pipe. 15min 35secs on the video I point out the remains of the old pipe.
Water table certainly very high now. Foresee your going to be very busy on that digger this spring and future Smaller digger like yours are going to increase in value and steal ability will increase
Yes, lands at saturation point and beyond now! We have a full time work book for the digger now until spring, and like you said beyond!
Show this to the environment agency as they don't believe dredging has any major benefits !!
Horrendous start to the New Year Simon ..
It is Richard, things can only get better…….. hopefully 😊
