I must apologise

I have yet again not posted anything in a fair while. I have my reasons tho, the main one and quite possibly the only one, work has been very time consuming and I havent had a day off in 19 days! which means I havent been able to stay in bed in the morning for 19 mornings which does not have a good effect. Anyway tomorrow (thats a saturday) I am working and then I have sunday off!! which will quite frankly be almost be heaven like! anyway unless you want me to prattle on about work which Im sure you dont, unless u want to hear about tractors, carrots, potatoes and pigs, Im just gonna post a few photos I took a few weeks ago and then leave...

Post 400!

Exactly half of what timothy I has posted. Sorry for my complete lack of posting of late, it has to do with work and effort and my car...she's broken, the power steering pump bust and some bolts have heads which seem to be made from chocolate. So she's currently at the mechanics waiting paitently for him to have a moment in time to mend her. As for effort I couldnt be bothered giving any to write a top quality post as I knew it wouldn't be top quality and therefore I wasn't going to write. And as for work...well now....last week I worked a total of 54hrs...and its likely to increase as we enter the season of tractor driving :D in two months time I will have my own tractor :D it is a John Deere 6320 and in a short amount of time I will have taken a picture of it (hopefully) so all you people who can't tell the difference between a JD and a New Holland (or any other tractor) can see what it looks like. And anyway of late I have not really had enough time or energy to write for which I am deeply sorry.

As I have post half the number of posts as Tim I will celebrate this fact by posting something Tim wrote on his rather excellent blog which I found throughly entertaining to read:

Then it came to me, a vision, a bright beaming light of inspiration and truth…
Everything!

That taste of tooth past and the fake communion wine on a Sunday morning. The taste of tooth past and fake communion wine in general really… Scott Mills. Fake, instant coffee from Nestle. The KFC mini fillet, and mini popcorn, with ten small balls of desecrated meat in bread crumb batter for 99p and cheep at half the price. The evil canteen staff at Yale, with their laser vision, heat rays, and tendency to kick you out for looking at home work while eating. And the way that though I'm sure I tidied it at least TWICE last year, MY DESK IS STILL A TIP!!! BBC 1 'news'. Waking up in the morning thinking it's Saturday, then remembering it's still Monday. Hymn books that are still written in four parts, even if there are only three… Rain. Busses and angry bus drivers. Empty cups of coffee. And Having nothing more to write on my blog…

Im not sure what the green line down the right hand edge of the this photo is, I think it is probably a helicopter or airplane because there are different red and green dots on each side of the line.

A slight bit of cheating...

Well we're all a year older

And to celebrate people send fireworks into the air!

Writing

Just incase you were wondering its a nickname given to me when I was young and I didnt work!

Christmas Day in B&W

Christmas Day (Evening)

The advantages of getting up early...

I managed to black out at work today, Iv got a cold and I suddenly started to feel really dizzy and faint so I went to a tractor to get in the cab and warm up, so I opened the door and the nxt thing I knew I was on the floor next to the front tyre of the tractor....so yh it therefore didn't surprise me that they sent me home! However wot was surprising is how comfortable the concrete floor covered in mud was!

DEFRA - God love em...

cos no one else does! They are obviously a bunch of pansy Londoner's who have never even seen a pair of wellies let alone worn em! Dispite being in charge of farming in this country they really don't have a clue about it! For example NVZs Nitrate Vunerable Zones, mean you can ownly put a certain amount of manure and slurry on your field, which is a bummer if you have a lot of cows. Also you have to store all your manure and slurry for 6 months before you can put it on your fields...6 months worth of slurry is ALOT. And the best time for putting manure and slurry on is when its frosty cos then you don't get stuck or anything. But no you can't do that, so you have to do it when its softer but then what, they fine you for putting mud onto the road! I know someone who they tried to fine because the spiral in the spreader was in the wrong way round so it was sending into the air and then down onto the floor instead of straight onto the floor...thats just petty! And they moan about not having enough money, that's partly to do with the government, but it would help if DEFRA didn't use a top class hotel to board their staff when they were dealing with F&M! I mean come on! Use some common sense....and hire some people who actually know summat bout farming....

Sorry bout that I needed a good rant...you're lucky I didn't get onto Pirbright!

Ah the fun

Having spent a relatively sleepless nite in my car on the side of a welsh mountain I preceed to watch rally car and do a spot of marshalling...imagin the smile on my face when this happened...
and if you don't believe I was really there then check this out....Im the chap in the green tabard leaning into the door to make sure they're all still alive (which they were)
and if you stiull don't believe me then watch this video Im the one sprinting to the car. and if you listen carefully to the incar footage you can actually hear me speak saying summat like "are you alrite?" I would like to claim I took the photos...however I didn't...one of the media chaps got some brilliant ones tho, If I can find em anywhere I'll post em up.

New Title!

Right I have now settled down into my new job (and if u can't work out wot it is then your stupid) and therefore I will now endevour to post at least once a week, hence the title. However I haven't all that much to say today...therefore this won't be a very long post....I will also try to take some more photos at somepoint in the near future, I've been too busy of late and just haven't had time...also the fact that its dark by the time I get home doesn't help.

I must.....

apologise for the distinct lack of any posts wot so ever recently....u see I have started a job on a farm recently and when I get home all I wanna do is do nothing or sleep, which in turn means I don't really have time to take photos or write posts like this one...hopefully I will soon enough get used to the long days and early starts and all that and I'll be back to more like my normal self, and post lots of useless posts and stuff...however it is now 8:30 which means it is nearly my bedtime....yep u heard that right 8:30 my bedtime! I have to be in a field by 7:30 tomorrow so staying up late really isn't worth it! I will take the time to say tho....I havent crashed a tractor yet!!!
