Agree re supermarket in France. Just returned from visiting daughter and was amazed at quality and presentation
What a fantastic video Andrew me and my wife have come to it this PM good not run a piss up in a brewery it get's bad every day any way keep up good work see you in mid week.
I agree, we have gone so far backwards with this government I can’t see it ever back to pre brexit/covid levels in my lifetime.
The dead bug is a Privet Hawkmoth.
Thanks for the update Andrew very informative as usual. This fashion in car tyres for bigger rims and lower profile tyres is ridiculous and especially 4x4s the tyre is the first point of suspension. To exit your drive to Newark both sides of the road are required so looks like the driver got impatient but it is an unbelievably busy road. Thanks again.
Ridiculous being on such low profile tyres on a 4x4.
You’re right about turning out the entrance to go to Newark, very few wait though.
You can't beat steel rims
Absolutely excellent as usual..simply the best Agricultural based channel..👍
Thanks Alan, pleased you enjoy the content.
Sorry about the entrance wall damage 😤 maybe look into some lorry bollards with rubber wear pads to protect from misjudged drivers 👌🏼
We have shortened them both last time.
You did Mr Ward, I can remember the video to prove it!
We have 3 telehandlers, the two rigids have the bibload style tyres like yours, one on Firestone the other Michelin. Firestone wore faster & broke up. Michelin a bit more expensive but much better value
Interesting. The comment about Firestone being better was from Tanvics depot manager. I’ll tell him.
Will agree the supermarkets here should take look how the produce is displayed, shame about the wall and hope you got the solo sorted.
Off to france tomorrow. The choice and quality is great in france - it’s not cheap but it’s good. Lack of plastic packaging is noticeable in their supermarkets too. Refreshing! I am fed up with non recycled plastic wrapping or stuff that can’t be sorted unless it goes to a supermarket with carrier bags!
Regarding the damaged wall, a couple sections of crash barrier would help, not mounted on the wall of course :-)
😂😂
Wonderful display of fruit n veg and choice.
Just shows how poor our supermarket's really are! I'm really quite shocked actually.
I've only been on a booze trip once to France and that was 25 odd years ago, plus Lanzarotte several times as in laws live out there. For a small island, their choice is as good as ours.
As others have said, if you've got room, sink a bollard in on either side of the drive. Thankfully you know who did it and they're willing to pay for the damage.
Our supermarkets are rubbish compared the the French.
We used to have a metal post concreted in to protect the wall but 2 harvest student damaged our trailers on them so we took it out. Michael Bailey was unhappy as he was making money out of the post!!!
Wonder if a flaunched concrete footing to guide any stray trailer tyres would help with out looking like a dock yard! Yes our supermarkets need to pull there socks up and involve the customers! Not just a tiny label and a red tractor that people don't understand!
Hi Andrew, good update again, wow that supermarket looked amazing mate, shame the supermarkets don’t support the farmers like that here isn’t it
Totally. 👍
Great video Andrew. Could do with supermarkets like that over here. 🚜🚜
Too right!
Never known a man have so many holidays 🤣
😂😂
I wish this was one instead of meeting the local Mayor, estate agent, planners and insurance company!! Don’t worry, back tonight so normal service resumed tomorrow!!
Sorry to say it but other countries supermarkets put ours to shame, another interesting video Andrew.
You need to visit your local quarry & buy a couple of 5 tonne boulders for your farm entrance, hit this, their truck gets damaged, not demolishing your wall.
We’ll end up hitting them like we did with the post which was concreted in!
Nothing from the uk of course 😢
Great video Andrew
What's the issue with the seeding beet? I know it obviously doesn't produce a tuber.
I'd sooner have steel wheels over large alloys, nothing but hassle on our poorly maintained roads.
Firestone tyres are rubbish they split, Michelin all the way 100%
👍😎
It takes the nitrogen out that’s meant for the proper beet
@@nickaf5262 But surely the cost of pulling won't be covered by the marginal increase in yield? There must be other reasons surely?
I've no idea it's not grown in these parts.
If weed beet sets seed, the next time it’s sugar beet, the weed beet density will be huge which reduces the sugar beet yield and sugar.
I heard there was a massive jump in grain prices due to Ukraine, I hope you get some benefit from it
What drives me mad about our supermarkets is that they've adopted a system of buying imported unripe produce, storing it in pure nitrogen atmosphere and then sticking it on the shelves. The result is utterly tasteless fruit & veg that goes rotten before it ripens. 99% of melons on supermarket shelves are tasteless and rot before they ripen. It's completely unnecessary. A few years ago I bought half a dozen melons from a market stall in southern France. Despite being in a hot car for 2 days before I got back to the UK, they were edible for at least a week after and the aroma of melon was almost overpowering. Apples are the same. In September/October you can tell that many of the British apples you buy are a year old just by the texture, despite it being peak harvest time. We need to wean ourselves off this absurd system of having everything on the shelves all year round and get back to eating more seasonal produce.
Vinteresting about the melons, that was one fruit couldn’t get enough of last bc week. Totally agree with everything else.
great update
Spent some hrs when I was 16 pulling seed beet. 😨😨👍🇬🇧
Good grounding as a teenager!
O'dear not the wall again! The fruit in France does look, yes you want to eat it😊
Yes, again!!
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard Dear me, wall isn't destined to stay up!
The beast on the concrete looked like an Elephant Hawke Moth
👍😊
Privet hawkmoth hawkmoth biggest native moth left rapidly in decline unfortunately
It isn’t even like you have a narrow entrance to you’re driveway 🤦♂️
Another good video Andrew. Are tractor mounted weed wipers still commonly used in sugar beet fields ?
No, very little used here.
Do you like the concrete barrier, what Olly got you can drive over.
The concrete tyres are really good.
You mean the wide block? We don’t have any.
Move the wall back a bit
We did do last time!
Privet Hawk moth
👍😊
i do black grass picking near Lincoln and near Spalding no farmers never ever gave us a welfare trailer

@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard I work for UK recruitment will have a look chap also machine trained on 360
Toyota Land Cruiser far superior than those land rover
Drug's and alcohol testing for wall damage driver on return to base??🤔🍻🤦♂️
I’ve since found out an oncoming lorry caused the driver to either take the wall or hit the other lorry. Can’t verify this though.
@@WardysWaffleAndrewWard needs to hang back in future and let other lorries get out of way then, it's the old story, everyone is in a bloody hurry!!👎🙈💩
Spot on! 👍
