Today I get to work getting the old post out of the way so that Darren is able to get the new boundary fence up! After that is back onto the spreader and Henry gets out to spray the barley
Very cool seeing a cadastral peg from when the block was originally surveyed. I remember working from one to widen a gate at Tampu (it's north of Beacon) in 1980. You really need to have your dad on a podcast to talk about the history of the farm. You're actually not allowed to remove them either btw.
@@tomsbrookfarm Love the channel Tom but it’s actually a $1000 fine to disturb a survey mark under the Licensed Surveyors Act. Boundaries are defined by evidence (marks) in the ground. By removing one, it will make it hard for the next surveyor who may need that location to find enough evidence (marks) to prove an alignment. I’m not licensed yet but I am a surveyor who has spent many, many days digging for old marks, butts, wood stains or rusted out line spikes!
Hi John, great stuff as usual. I'm a former Tasmanian living in Sweden, had an enquiry from a young fellow wanting to work in Aus, you may have some tips or contacts, all appreciated, cheers Don Headlam
It’s a joke I’m not knocking him for not building his own fence. Where I live and farm mixed farming was the norm. But at the moment there are 3 big farmers around us buying up most farms on the market and they only crop, the first thing they do is pull out all unnecessary fences and get rid of most of the trees. I have a boundary with a couple of them and do you think I can get any help in fixing a fence between us no, but they will supply the materials so it’s all good. It’s a running joke around here the other one is they don’t know what a gate is because they don’t know how to shut one or in there own words wheat doesn’t ran away.

Hi Don, the best thing to do would be to get in contact with an employment agency. Would be the easiest way for him to get a job
Hopefully some of our Politicians what Vlogs like this to get some idea what the hell really happens out on the land!
Wash your car, always works for me. Wash the car and watch it rain.
Typical cropper doesn't know how to fence or won't work on a fence but knows how to knock down a tree. 😂😂
And your qualifications are. Easy to knock someone behind a key board
