A SMALL JOB TURNED INTO A MASSIVE TASK

  • This video has been recorded over 2 and a half months. It's one of those jobs that I thought would take a couple of weeks but totally underestimated what was involved. The weather and wet ground didn't help either but I thought I'd never see the end of it. The job is done though and I'm fairly happy with how it turned out except for the damage to the ground.

    Well done Karen!
    You're mighty. Never mind it took so long, you're one woman, most of the time! And you have a full time job. Good to see you roped the family & in-laws in to help you. I'm sure you're dad is so proud of you and you should be too. You never give yourself enough credit girl !!! And all that rain is what makes kerry (and the rest of Ireland) so green & beautiful. Keep up the good work.

    Your work ethic is grand Karen! Very glad you could get your sisters and their partners to help you out in the clearing. By now I'm thinking the grass grew back, the ground got a bit dryer and stronger and the posts and new fencing are complete! Always sweet to see you and your Dad get some time together too while tacking something else that needed to be done! The end result looked great too! The fact that you could even get a head start on all of this in January is a kicker to be sure! I'm thinking we all are ready for some warm and dry weather! Cheers From Across The Pond In Ohio 👋

    Hi Karen,
    Great job, well done. There is always fierce work afterwards when you do that kind of clearing. You had great help, fair play to them. I am facing into the same job myself. It's all down on the field, we just haven't been able to get in the field to clear it up with all of this rain we're getting.

    Hi Karen, On my scrolling of the net over the weekend, I seen a chap using a petrol post knocker, it was out foreign, Basically you fire the grobar down first to check for rocks, place your post in the hole & put this knocker on top & rev it up & down the post goes, (Not googled it yet) 💪

    Hi Karen, thats an interesting video from the farm. I did expect to see a good old hand pump grease gun which still does the job ok. Its a pity its still raining and the ground is still boggy. Nothing better that getting the family involved and using the team effort. Another big job out of the way and i love your technique in knocking the post in the ground. You now have a big bon fire to burn, so why not invite you family around for a barbie, beer and marshmallows to thank them for their hard work. Thanks for the update. Chris from Australia 🇦🇺.

    Good job in a short time on the editing. I’m 5 hours behind you, and it’s barley dinner time, and I’m enjoying the episode.
    If you do trimming every year, maybe look into a small portable chipper/shredder. They’re pricy new, but I got one on marketplace for $200🇨🇦 which is about €135. It’ll manage anything up to 3”. I’ve had it for 5 years now, and it gets about 5 hours a year work. Might not do it all, but I’ve turned some mighty big piles of shrub into garden mulch.
