its a combine picture.


Just to prove that I get dirty and do some work , heres a picture of me and my combine in a field of Barley. The field is called Beech Quarry, its one of the very few fields that I have amalgameted buy removing a hedge, guess what he two fields were called, annswers on a post card.
When this combine was new in 1995 it was considered huge in terms of output, at around 20 tonnes of wheat cut per hour, today ther are combines that are physically similar in size that can do 3 times that amount per hour plus. If I have one of those in 13 years time harvest will be a couple of long weekends, bring it on !!
