    WOW...does this video take me back to my lad days on the farm and helping other farmers bring their hay bales in off the fields. I could 'smell' the hay while watching. I'd walk the field, pick the bales and throw them up on the wagon where another 'lad' would stack them - the tractor never stopped. And mercy...that baler is amazing for how old it be - those tractors too! Thanks Joanne for the trip down memory lane! Stay safe - be well - many blessings.

    I have to admit that I watch for your videos. They are such a joy, even with a heartache sometimes....but, that’s life. This is such an education for me because I grew up near New York City.
    I was watching Sandi Brock the other day and they have these huge modern tractors. What a contrast. LOL
    But, there is nothing like a summers day in the Dales. You are so fortunate....especially now during this chaos. Wish I was there on Dale farm.

    Hiya Joanna, great video, it took me straight back to the 60s' to Rutland then South Wales watching the straw being bailed and transported. The tractor, bailer, the cage behind it, all as it was. Fantastic to watch it all still working, and working so well. Dad was in the RAF hence the move, Cyprus came next in 68. Now there was great heat, 105 in August, running down the cliff path to the beach, swimming all day then running home. No ice on the water thank you very much, just warm Medeterainian sea.
    Stay safe, Steve...

    You don’t get better weather for hay making than that very often. That old 41 year old baler certainly performed well and the bale collector must be one of the original machines of that type. When the ‘flat eight’ collectors became commonplace, the simplest one had switch over gates which guided the bales into the appropriate channels, with number eight triggering the tailgate release. I could almost feel the heat and smell the hay.
    Should have tied that load on. As soon as I saw it going along the road i could have bet money that the rear corner was going to fall off .
    Still a nice feeling to get it all done and in the barn. See you in around 5 weeks.

    Really nice video, brought back alot of memories. Just an idea, drop the trailer, stick a rake on the loader to help load the bales, significantly faster. Also, tie the load down with ropes or straps, it's worth it! Keep up the great work.

      Hey Greg! I reckon in Australia you must get used to it. Here is often humid when hot and it can be very draining on your energy! And we don’t have air con so it’s not always so pleasant at night in the house! But we manage! I try not to complain 🤣

    I bought a MF20 baler recently as a vintage working exhibit. Yer one is going really well. No breakages?
    Long ago in Ireland we used have to stook the bales in fours with knots down and out and leave for a week in the field lest they heat in the barn. Lot of fine weather essential. Farmers back then were really physically fit from such labours and had no weight or health issues. Far less stressful then in comparison to the intensive farming today.
    Your video depicts perfectly what hay making used to be like. Well done. 👍👏👏👏

    Great all has gone so well with the hay this year. The three most important things with any baler are : keep them well lubricated, maintain the knives in a sharp condition and store them under cover when not in use. It always amazes me how folk can invest good money into a machine and then simply neglect it's needs, but still expect the world from it ! Is that the trailer Nick re-boarded ? Nice mid size bale trailer. Years ago people from the villages would turn out willingly to help with hay making, but they are in the minority these days i am afraid. There again, not so many farmers make hay like yourselves and how i am used to anyway, so there would be little for them to do really. JOHN STARTIN - TAYLOR.

    Nice to see the old baler out, it’s a few years older than me as well🤣🤪. Looked nice hay, sure he sheep will enjoy it this winter. Ahh the self unloading bale trailer 🤣🤦‍♂️ Had that happen a few times with us. I then got taught to build bother ends of the trailer, then fill the middle, keeps everything straight and tight 😊

      Let’s blame nick as he was stacking! The bales were super light and not easy to stack in all Fairness 🥰
