    I really admire the precision of the tractor drivers in the Hay-Making. It's quite hypnotic to watch and I'd love to try it but don't think my driving licence extends that far. And anyway, instead of beautiful .straight lines I think I would leave crop circles. Lol

    What an idillic setting watching that tractor making rows of hay,then the bales coming out already wrapped. Very relaxing to watch. Glad the campsite it doing ok.
    I know what you mean about this day and age being ‘stressful’.

    Very enjoyable episode.
    This is a McHale Fusion that replaced two machines which it took to do the job previously, -namely, the baler and wrapper. Would have thought that this dry hay didn’t need to be wrapped. It really adds to the cost of each bale.
    It’s nice to look back on a video such as this when sitting by the fire on a cold winter’s night.

    Hi Joanna really enjoyable vid as always, having lived and worked nearly all my life on arable/livestock farms (mostly dairy farms in the Cotswold) I certainly understand why you feel like you don't need a holiday especially when you live and work in such a beautiful part of the world like you do or I do, but getting away from your day to day routine and being able to relax and recharge is a must in my humble opinion,
    Being the owner of old hay making equipment and a 1960 Fordson Dexta myself I always enjoy seeing them working in the field but also at the same time working with modern tractors I enjoy seeing them out working as well really liked that JCB Fastrac fantastic machines.

      Hey thanks for the comment - I agree a mix of old and new machinery, old and new ways is perfect!! I love the farm life but definitely need to create some gaps in the schedule to unwind and relax. As with the camp site it’s very hard going for months on end! But I always try and keep smiling! Never been to the Cotswolds but I heard it’s beautiful xxx

      @@DaleFarm Totally agree with you old and new machinery is always lovely to see working, and yes it is a very beautiful area especially West Oxfordshire/East Gloucestershire that might be why we have so many celebrities living in the area, in my humble opinion the border between the two counties is the best place to visit but I could be biased as I'm from West Oxfordshire, strangely enough I've never been to the Peak District but hopefully will in the next few years as it does look a beautiful area to visit.
