After the days plans fall through, John and Brian head out to see Johnny Boggs and the Gorthill crew bringing in the grass. In the field, John gets to sit in a Claas 980 harvester for the first time while back at the pit the L90 is on its knees, even with a New Holland 110-90 giving a hand. Watch the full episode we shot with Gorthill here: farmflix.tv/video-details/str...

Fair play for talking about mental health
Talking is not something to be afraid of
Strange times John Goodman to be straight out about the bad days had them days too no shame in it thanks again for the videos
Always good to talk!
You're completely right about the motorway.
Just good manners!
Couldn’t agree more John about ramps always sets my road rage off.
GGGRRRRRR!!!!!!!
Beautiful content right throughout, well done👏👏
Cheers
Some fleet! That 110-90 sounds mint
Epic
The backdrop of that stubble field is stunning. Green and red for me the way a fendt is ment to be.
Hard to beat the good scenery!
Really enjoyed this
Very enjoyable video there lads.. Mint all round
Cheers John
That black kit looks clean !!!!!!!
Mint!
John your correct about merging onto the motorway, the only time I merge slower is when there’s a 40 footer and I slip in behind it and around.
Good call E30!
Hard to admit that some days you are struggling, but very brave and important of you to say it out loud, there's no shame in it. Huge respect to you. Am going through my FarmFLix videos, you meet some great characters and have such a laugh. Question I always want to ask is when you are interviewing someone doing road work in their tractors have you ever felt a nervous passenger?
Honestly... No. Complete trust in these guys BUT did become very aware of the fact it's only a bit of glass keeping us safe when the window popped in the Fendt sat beside Johnny Boggs one evening!
@@farmflix yes that was a bit of a shock when the screen went, made me jump too.
v.Nice fleet of black machinery!! Good video 👌
Sweet fleet
Would you be interested in coming to france and see our fleet and french farming?
Absolutely, might be 2021 but send us some details through the website contact page
John is right about the motorway, when joining you should match the speed of the traffic in the left lane or drive faster, nobody will run into the back of you if you are faster than them. Also it’s common courtesy to move from the left lane into the right lane if it’s safe to do so to allow room for cars to merge from the left. 👍
Savage John 👍
Cheers FOP
I have filmed out the back of are Volvo XC90 and it is seven seats and you just sit in the back seat and you can still have the seat belt just open the boot and film so totally legal love the videos 👍
What's the XC90 like off road? Ever drive it over mowed grass?
Red rims lads
Good video nice 110 sounds 👌
Hard to beat a 110 for bark
Yes 🤘
Silver rims look right smart on a JD john.
Even better on a black fendt :P
nice Navara good vid I can already tell
She's a bit of a boat to turn compared to the discovery!
Have agreed with you John driving on the road n letting cars merge, not sure with rim colours but like black out farm equipment definitely sets them apart from other contractors. Great vid fellas, now take a break go camping n have a bbq to release some stress.
Camping does not sound like a stress relieving activity! lol
Jonny’s right!! Read your Highway Code!!
I've just looked up the highway code and the 2 bits that jump out about joining from slip roads are,
-- "give priority to traffic already on the motorway
" and
-- "check the traffic on the motorway and match your speed to fit safely into the traffic flow in the left-hand lane
"
Some take the first to mean 'give way' to traffic on the motorway. I disagree with that because you can't fulfill the second if you're giving way to everything in lane 1. I think you should pace yourself to slot into a space and that traffic on the main carriageway should make it easier for you to join, so move into lane 2 so you have a clear lane or ease off a bit to let a safer gap to open up for you to slot into when they can't change lanes.
If I'm driving on a motorway (although I don't do it that often) I will try and move over for merging traffic as it's the safest option for everyone when it can be done.
Observation and reducing risk regarding what you see is a huge part of advanced driving like that that 'IAMRoadSmart' and 'RoSPA' teach, and this should be the minimum. These would fail you if you failed to react to merging traffic on a motorway by, for example, moving right by a lane to help them join safer. Too many drivers think you have to give way on a slip road as can be seen in UK dashcam compilations (I have watched quite a few of them :) ), with the over cautious stopping at the end of sliproads, and the self entitled on the carriageway blocking merging traffic from joining in front of them, both potentially deadly actions to pull.
As you can probably see, I get easily frustrated with incompetent drivers too. :)
John says when he did his HGV instructor trainging he had to move to the right in preparation / expectation of vehicles coming down the ramp even before he could see them
@@farmflix Makes sense because if anything overtakes or comes alongside when joining it's going to be there for a long time, longer than slip roads would allow, so moving over 'early' removes the risk of that happening.
I could see cars getting annoyed though on 2 lane motorways if there isn't anything joining, but it doesn't take much to do that for some of the road users today. :)
Good vid
Cheers
Haven’t been home since, good see a few shots of the Limavady area. Great to see the behind the scenes. Also, being a dairy farmer in NZ, have enjoyed watching the stockyard episodes
Good stuff! Will have to look you up if we ever get as far as NZ
Go to trucker Ned Kelly and you will find it’s not up to the driver to let you out onto the motorway, in fact he makes a point of not letting people out.
Guess Ned has never been stuck on the ramp himself when the right hand lane is free?
Car on the motorway has right way, it is up to the car on the slip road to match there speed and slot in.
Still bad manners when the right hand lane is empty
Limavady crop farmer would have to be the Broighter Gold Rapeseed Oil people. Would be cool to see them with all their big Claas gear
Will have to look them up
John why does Gorthill have all their fleet black?
I think IV a good contractors to give a ring lad in wexford called Suttons all new Hollands and 2jcbs on pit one lifting 7drawing
Wexford is a nice part of the world
@@farmflix are u interested
Boggs pride of fleet must be 110 red rims for fendt I see his plant all time red looks bit sharper
Definitely need a contrast colour :P
I’m down south in Kildare and work for a tillage farmer that bales a lot of hay and straw and haylage. It would be ideal for what you’re looking for but I know the boss wouldn’t be interested as I know he likes to keep his business low profile
Kevin you just broke my heard :(
I can ask to see what he thinks
Black rims look good nowadays
Black on black tho???
@@farmflix nice and different, dont see a lot going around
When was this filmed boys? August 2019 ish?
ROADRUNNER5S5 probably in the last couple of weeks
Aye think it was about august time last year
First of August 2019 yeah
Great video lads,,does j Boggs not do Harvest🤷♂️?
Combine etc🤷♂️
They sold the combine harvester
Ye may go down and film mark Troy's 990 jaguar!!
Yeah John will call in with them sometime, been years since he's filmed Mark
@@farmflix deadly cant wait for that one so!!!
Black on Black 👍🏻
Mmmmmm
Do you want to come to my own silage next week
Right about merging on the motorway, drives me mad.
Yes Kenny!
Ye should film broighter gold rapeseed oil with there massive class
Good video. DIY haircut?
Last year, no he paid for that one!
Red rims
Or silver ;)
What happened to the jaguar drivers neck
Broke it in quad accident
www.farmflix.tv/video-details/loft-johnny-boggs-ep28
Sound job @farmflix really well done on showcasing the dangers of quads
Mark troy had one of them. he now has a 990 but grassmen were talking to him
Yeah John has met Mark before
I put 500 acres into my pit it's a small pit but its really tall
Strictly speaking nobody has to move over to let people off the ramp. The broken line at the exit means 'give way'. Its a junction. The traffic already on the road has the right of way.
You expecting people to move over is more to do with manners, not the actual rules.
Red
red rims
Good call
Just wondering what is your job
Making episodes for FarmFLiX!
You can come to my farm feeding stores to beef
Where you at Raymond?
FarmFLiX co Monaghan
I filmed the second cut at that yard... small world lol
Some yard wasn't it lad
@@jackrobinson4101 powerful lol
Norn Iron is too small!
The single farm payment is complete EU nonsense. We need to go back to the system that was in place before we joined, which was the annual price review which set a standard price for qualifying produce that the food industry had to pay. We need to bring back the milk marketing board too. I think it is up to you farmers to shout long and hard at your various devolved governments, but we need a UK wide policy. Payments just for farmers, not speculators.
Good call Wendy
Unfortunately,until Dairy farmers learn to actually sit down together as they did here in NZ,ie,Fonterra,they will always be price takers at the mercy of supermarkets,who have always used milk and bread as loss leaders
The difference here is that Fonterra set the price per kg/milk solids.
Red rims all the way
Absolutely
Has to red rims for me
Agreed
Another mong loading on the incorrect side
In your opinion mong :P
