- COLD , way more beautiful and fun than our usual winter conditions ( wet and windy has been the norm ) This week it’s breaking the ice, enjoying the sunshine and we have an escaped highland cow! Hope you enjoy the video!
A big thank you to Ridgeline Clothing for kindly sending me a wonderful new outfit of jacket and trousers ! And nick a new coat! Farming is more comfortable when you have the right gear and I have been snug as a bug all week in my outfit !

That's one beautiful video, great to see the Highlands, Hard dry weather, good for the soul.Daphnie is a little bit of a devil. 😂.
She is definitely trouble !! It’s because she’s the smallest she’s full of mischief
Hi Joanne I think that calve did jump out to the top of the barbwire because was cowherd stuck
And I like to say this is the best of the best video I did enjoy every single minute thank you Joanne and Nic 🙏🙏👋👋👍👍🍻🍻
Thank you for watching Giuseppe x

Hi Jim we have a big lack of sunshine here and no shortage of rain!!

Hi Nancy! Thank you for enjoying the natural sounds! They are my favourite too!!
Hope the weather has been kind to you, since making this video. Keep warm and take care.
Hi 👋 it’s been mostly wet !
Hi Joanna excellent video again, what wonderful scenes the snow ❄️ only adds to the beauty. I know it's hard when it's freezing but doesn't it make it better when you're not up to your knees in mud?.The Highlands look really well, thanks again take care and stay safe 👍 😊.
We definitely need a dry spell , hopefully some in march to prepare the fields and the same some dry April weather for the lambs to arrive but not a drought !!!
Beautiful views another lovely vid stay warm hope ther is no damage with that storm coming in ok be safe
Thank you Lee , slowly getting towards spring
Hey Joanna!
I agree, being outdoors on a chilly and still morning is incredible. I especially love being in the woods in those conditions when a light snow is falling. It truly is as if you can hear the snow falling.
Very peaceful.
The lighting and views are stunning!!! Stay warm and well. ✌🏻❤️🇺🇸🙏🏻🇬🇧
Thank you Andrew, hopefully we are going towards spring at a good pace now !
Really is a beautiful part of the country..
Thank you xx
Wow, what beautiful Views… Chilly but that Sunrise is absolutely stunning! ✌️🇨🇦
Thank you for enjoying cx
those frozen waters need hot water to melt it lol hugss
It is all beautifully serene, the quiet, winter has its effect. It’s great to see you and Nick laugh, and enjoy the challenges of farming. Kudos to Nick for his tools. 😊
Thank you I love the good and frosty days it makes a change from rain
The morning skies and land are stunning! I love it when we are up in the woods and the day is calm and all you sense is the smell of the forest and the silence only broken by bird song. The sheep look great and of course the Highlands with their teddy bear faces. Take care and keep warm or dry or whatever nature decides to send your way.
Thank you Donna! Spring is getting here slowly ! We haven’t had much frost or snow this winter, it’s been very wet . Like the summer x
Very pretty country and tour guide ! Trying something a little different, I started my garden season a tad early today. I made little mini greenhouses out of gallon plastic milk jugs and am cold stratifying some broccoli and poppy seeds in them . Can’t wait for spring the cold weather makes my bad leg with the metal in it ache like a tooth ache.
I have planted a few seeds which are indoors on the window sill! I will do some more in march!
Great video Joanna as always 👌
Thank you Gary x
Daphney probably thought that the grass was greener on the other side.
Yeah ! Or she is pushed out by the others as she’s the smallest she wanted to try new friends
Sure is beautiful in the morning sunrise.it’s is cold but a lot better then mud.stay safe from Canada
Thank you Dennis x
Lovely to see it dry for a wee while ❤ see Nick enjoying the fair weather with his shorts on 🥶🤣
It’s rare unfortunately to get dry weather for the last year !
Best of luck with everything on the farm this week ahead take care now 👍👍👍
Thank you Michael x
I’m so very jealous of your picturesque views ❤ love a winter wonderland with peaceful nature 😊 ADSM clips are so relaxing. Keep up your spirits hun 😻

Thank you Roberta x
Spotted the Dipper on a rock in the river. 4mins 31seconds.
Yeah I love to see them!
THANK YOU JOANNA FOR THE VIDEO , PLEASE KEEP SAFE AND WELL , XXX . 🥶🐑
Thank you Ernest x
Yes, the sunrise captures everything in a beautiful light. If only every morning was as good but then it would lose its magical appeal. Nick looked industrious with the drill and saw. Was there some double entendre humour at play or am I missing the point? Anyway, whatever, it appealed to my wicked sense of humour. Thanks for sharing.
We could definitely use a few more magical mornings ! Here it’s mostly gloomy !!
We do have a bit of a cheeky sense of humour here yes
Lovely video of a cold frosty week, hang on to your hats there is another storm on the way. Stay safe.
Thank you xx
It has been a while since I watch your video. I thought I would come back and see how you were doing
Thanks Charles xx
Escaped Highlander loves the Corner sponsored by Muller Corner. So love the immense quiet & top of the world feel you captured incredible beauty when its all so frosty & Stunning Sunrises too Joanna & Nick with his Drilling in the Ice Mr Ice-Breaker Geezer & got to hydrate those Ewes/Rams/Lambs/Highlanders. Loving the new Farm Clothes Joanna & Nick proper gear that & Nick in his shorts too & Nice seeing Monsal Dale too. Fantastically Filmed So Beautiful So Stunning & yes The Calm Before The Storm Take Care xx
looks amazing and the water wowzers i bet it was cold hugsssss
Hi Jo Nick we have been hit since Thursday/ Friday/ sat with violent hail/rain/heavy winds over here in Conwy area hold on to your hats it's getting worse best wishes from Wales martin.
Hi Joanna,
You have some very beautiful mornings in your part of the world. Give me a frosty morning, any day of the week, instead of rain...🙂👍🏻
Yeah we mostly have rain here
Not many frosts to speak of this winter
I have enjoyed the frosts we had
ThanksJo, there was some fantastic shots of the countryside which were heartwarming on a winters day. You've still got a good load of wrapped hay so the animals will be OK for food. Please tell Nick he makes me shiver in just his shorts, and he'll say I'm a wimp and he's not wrong, but I hate the cold. Best wishes from EA.
Thank you Colin, a bit behind with comments but I love to read them so thankyou for leaving them!! Shame we haven’t had more cold and frosty days
Very miserable here xx
Good evening Joanna and Nick, nice to see your smiling faces again. Never ending chores,that's life on the farm or Ranch. Thanks for Sharing. 😊
Thank you for watching steve
GOOD cat! As always Joanna, great video videography shots! The weather always helps in that regard. And Nick, great tool choice - Makita has always been my first choice because the tools last! I think all livestock has a 'gene' that looks for the fence line weak spots...it's a very intelligent gene too! Proper kit always makes the day go better! Enjoyed the video - thanks for sharing. Be well - many blessings! Cheers...
It's been a while Joanna. You look well. The farm looks amazing even in winter!
Thank you! Not had much cold weather like frosty
Rather nice when it's ,cold crispy and bright. Cheers us up who work outside.
Thank you Keith xx
Another great video you have some great views there Joanna @ Nick nice sun set there stay safe and keep warm 👍👍👍
Thank you sandy xx
Absolutely love your tours of the Farm it's Sunday January 21st here what the high of 37 today we have a beautiful blue sky we just need some heat to melt stuff oh yes you both look very sharp in your new gear and in the USA a cowboy would put a rope around the cow's neck and leave it where to go 😁👍😉🐝
What a relief to finally get some dry weather for a while. I think minus 5 was our coldest night with us. You're right more wet and windy weather on its way. Thanks for the video. All the best 🇬🇧.
Yes it’s been mostly wet here, at least we are now approaching spring
Hi Guys, we are in the midst of storm Isha at the moment, 8pm on Sunday January 21st, very rough indeed.
The storms were awful ! Hopefully soon be spring !
We are 0 degrees Fahrenheit with a wind chill of -12 degrees Fahrenheit. Has been really cold and miserable.
Bring on the spring! Mostly wet weather here
Some how you need to get some heaters for the water containers, it would really help with the ice problem.
No electric up there though!
It can be done. @@wheater5
Given how little we have frosts it doesn’t seem worth the investment
Excellent video again enjoyed very much thanks for sharing finally got the mud thickend up LOL
Thank you Terry x
It’s been proper grand the last week! Great sunrises and sunsets, hard ground and no roast on my truck to scrape on a morning !😆😁. Looks like it’s gonna go pear shaped this week though 😩🤦♂. We’ve grass starts to shoot already though!
It’s a right old mess here , will it ever end xx
Hey yall wow its cold 🥶 and thats a good way to break the ice or cutting through it lol. Yall stay warm and take care. Enjoyed the video and beautiful views. God bless 🙏
It was a brief cold spell it’s been so wet and not nice bright cold weather which is much better in my opinion ( cold and crisp )
Video is very tranquil, and I thought at first you were going for a dip. You were both chipper shows what no rain and a bit of sun does. Take care xx
The sun makes all the difference! I have done some cold swimming this winter !
She’s not well a farmer not complaining! Great to see
❤️🤣🥰
Hi Jo
Oh wow that’s so sweet of you and Nick
Thankyou so much.
Just before Christmas I had a close family bereavement so it’s been a tuff time but this gift has made me smile
The calendar in on the fridge door showing off the stunning pictures
Love Kim xx
Sorry to hear of the sadness and your loss, especially at Christmas it is extra emotional and difficult I think. Sending you our love and very pleased you like the calendar xxx
How does Nick NOT have frostbit knees!
I am not sure !!
Looking beautiful - winter is such a pretty time of the year - I am in NZ at we are going for most of the country 26-31 degrees during the day so mightly warm and by the looks our Aussie farmers in Western Aussie and Central Aussie will have 50 degree days next week - that will be hard on their sheep
50 degrees I hope there is some shade from a big old tree
Your over view of the valley is just fantastic, how goes the campsite 🚜👍🚜
The campsite is picking up pace.
did you go for a dip in the river..........plenty of water running down there
Yes no shortage of rain
Beautiful footage of the farm, the buildings and the water flowing at the stream Joanna. The scene with the Viaduct is just stunning. It's like something you'd see on a postcard.
Well done getting Daphne back. Our dairy cows used to sometimes butt an innocent one of their number into or through a fence and of course we'd have to get her back in and repair the fence. Happily the same animal usually never got caught unawares again, but then on the other hand, there'd be the odd one that you'd see deliberately rogue through or over even good fences for no apparent reason. These persistent rogues didn't last long and were sold because they were always a real nuisance and a massive pain in the a..e.
As always, you're both doing a top job with the livestock and the running of Dale Farm.
Take care.
I think you are right , Daphne was getting bullied a bit !!
Been a bit of a steady few weeks here, rain and mud makes me feel
More depressed than anything so not
Filmed much x
@@DaleFarmI can certainly relate somewhat to how you feel Joanna. Constant rainfall and muddy conditions certainly do make a farmer feel downhearted. It always restricts you from doing a lot of jobs that you'd really like to get done but can't because of the boggy conditions. On top of that the worst things for us with unending rain was the delayed planting of seasonal crops or even worse havesting and baling crop ruined and lost etc. The livestock especially the dairy cows used to really suffer too. In many ways it was as bad as a full-on drought. Back in the day some of the older farmers used to call it a"wet drought" situation, which was pretty apt really.
The only comforting thing I can say Joanna is that at least with every passing day it's another day closer to getting back to a more normal season. Thinking of you both. Take care.
Another good video we have had rain all day today 👍
Sick of the endless wet weather here !
👍
Did the new clothing supplier include shorts for Nick 😂
Haha. I’ll let you guess
Thanks for the update Joanna, that frost was needed to help dry the ground up. Cattle and sheep looking well your extra feed and minerals are all helping. It’s a real struggle getting water to the livestock when it’s all frozen up. You two are looking good in your ridgeline range, ideal for farming and/or outside activities. It will get the ultimate test out with you two. What temperature did you you get down to it was looking about -5 maybe. Keep safe and warm you two.
I have lived in the Ridgeline and so has nick! Been mostly wet, not enough dry or sun! Hard to stay positive but spring is coming xx thank you for the comments about the sheep! I try my best with them!
@@DaleFarm And thank you for your kind responses and the lovely Dale farm calendar you produced, one complaint I have about the calendar is the days seem to pass so fast on it, not good at my age 😂
Didn't Ridgeline Clothing have any pants in Nick's size? They'll have to create a new line just for Nick.
Hehe i don’t know why nick won’t wear long trousers I guess his signature thing is shorts , I don’t pay attention any more
Hang in there, nice video work.
Thank you!
So what's the story with the donkeys? Belong to a neighbour ? Rare sight these days. Great video as usual, nice to see Nick is not so camera shy anymore
Yes a neighbour loves to keep donkeys
КЛАССНЫЕ КОРОВКИ КРАСИВЫЕ МИЛЫЕ
I see Nick still doesn't wear pants
Nope he won’t alter xx
Heard or seen nothing of Uncle Peter. Is he OK?
He’s okay thanks for asking! He doesn’t farm with us but we see him and chat on the regular ! Xx
You're either getting older or wiser because you haven't had a dip in the icy water recently 😂
I was thinking the same thing 🤔
@@michaels.1365she is! Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 and mindful life by Agnes and countryside 🏡🐕😊
I hate to disappoint but yes I have been swimming a bit in January!! And a little in Feb
Not in December the river as a constant torrent of flood water
Omg Nick use an axe.
