We didnt cut and carry as much as 4 acres, due to the wheat being over ripe and also very brittle, but still did enough to make a nice size rick.Glad to hear that you are bringing the working clothes John, im sure we will all have a chance during the weekend to have a go at either pitching sheafs, rakeing chaff, feeding the baler, riding on the plough or cultivator and then perhapes best of all we could look after the engines !!!! Looking like about 10 engines being around for the weekend.

Steve.

Hi Steve,

I spread the word at our Robey Heritage Open Day Event over the weekend and quite a bit of interest has been shown by our visitors. I hope that this translates to cars at the gate, we are looking forward to coming down for the event.

We will pray for fine weather !

Regards,

Tom.

Our plough and cultivator are already on the farm. We will leave the Fowler in the vicinity following the ploughing day near Okehampton on the 26th September and drive Hero over from Cottonwood with the living van and watercart during the week before the Harvest Home weekend.

The locally owned pair of K7's are also expected.
