  • Wow it has ALL GONE WRONG today tarted the day off getting a stone through the beet chopper which isn’t an actual dilemma just a time consuming one so we needed to empty the beat chopper out and find the stone which looked like a piece of beat and then fill it back up. Change the sheer bolt and then started up again fix last night. Major problem of Roy , backing the Merlot into something and breaking the isolator switch on the back of it so that the machine didn’t start once you had stopped it. We tried to rectify this problem with the hillbilly approach, then decided against it and rang somebody to help parts are on their way, but until then we’ve put a bolt through, and this will make do do so then the bobcat coupling was leaking oil, so we put a new end on. Then the bulk tank arrived. This was a big purchase for us and a very exciting one. If not nerve racking to unload thank you Mark for the loan of your pallet for extenders. It really was very helpful and we managed to get it off the lorry without straps on the book tank when it is in situ, but we need to concrete the room out that it is going in
    in 2009 i had no experience of farming or the realities that came with it. That soon changed when I met my other half Roy, I had a job as a carer and in every spare moment threw myself into farming. I had only ever driven a Nissan Micra and had experience with horses, I learnt the hard way as nobody had the time to show me and soon after arriving I found myself mothering on calves to three quarter bred limmy cows. We spent every available moment on the farm between our day jobs. Fast forward to 2016 two children later we moved into our very own farm overlooking the northern Pennines, Laitha.
    we are in a transitional period at present and will finally be milking cows and making the final switch later this year, after years of planning and implementing infrastructure we will be milking 120 Jersey cows on two Lely robots. This will be a huge change and a steep learning curve
    I will be taking you all along for the ride so hit that subscribe button and see you every other day for farming vlogs.
    I am overjoyed to be a farmer. I feel so fortunate every day to wake up and do what I love and even better share it with the world and hope it inspires more young people from Preston to spread their wings and think outside the box the world doesn’t need more childcare workers or hairdressers it needs more farmers.

    Many people don't realise that the lovely friendly lorry driver you had today Monday wasn't at the Sunday lunch dinner table, instead he was heading towards the ferry to be at your doorstep typical of Irish and Northern Ireland freight drivers

    Mad here too , we aren’t watching this as a clan today just taking a breather after breakfast and said what better way to relax than see how hectic your life has been for the last few days! Must say that only for paddy the Irish man you would have naff all stuff in that shed ( said NAFF just to be CZcams friendly, it’s not a word that you would hear this side of the pond but I thought it was appropriate! ) . Regards from Ireland! The only place to get your dairy equipment apparently!

    Hi Charlotte, an interesting collection of content this time round. A lovely Sunday roast with veggies with your home grown meat. Yummy! It proves hanging on to excess building material will someday come in handy and save money. You and Roy are having a kind of break from the building work and now just going around smashing into things. Aviation Update! 😅 The arrival of the milk tank adds another piece to the puzzle of your robot dairy. Chris from Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺.

    Very good idea to bolt the terminals together, you might have had a problem with the alternator not charging otherwise, also ecu,s don't like low voltage. Don't be afraid of getting a shock from 12v dc you won't but be careful of a poor connection as it will get very hot very quickly.
