    I enjoyed the dairy visit greatly. It reminded me of visiting one of my dad's friends' dairy farm sporadically over many years when growing up. First, the cows would come into a grassy milking paddock and stand in the same place for milking by hand. Later they made bales on concrete floors, where the cows would come for feed and be milked by hand. Lastly they had milking machines added to the milking bales. Such slow progress over many years. No milk was sold, the separated cream was sold for butter making and the skim milk fed the calves and pigs and used for home consumption. Just a small family dairy farm.

    Hi Johno, great story on Australia Day showing hard working Aussies getting on with it, no public holiday for this crew and no protesters in site. These farmers across the country have been doing it tough for many years no thanks to the two supermarkets that are systematically destroying a way of life with their price gouging tactics.
    No medals here for the Dairy Farmers, but there should be . But on a lighter note well done on an informative and interesting video.

    Fancy finding your old truck, it lives in a shed now so it will last forever. A lot of trucks finish up on farms. Just a little snippet, dairy cows are creatures of habit, they will go through and get milked in about the same order every milking. Jeff

    Takes me back to my youth. I grew up dairy. Knew the industry well. I have milked a lot of cows. Mostly Friesian or Holstein crosses. Never used a rotary parlour. Abreast. Or Herringbone, like he used to have. But not the rotary. He didn't seem to have much grass, when you visited. Hand feeding the herd. In the UK the cows are in all Winter, so you have to feed them. It is great when the time comes to let them out and graze. Lot less work. The thing with dairy, it is non stop. 365 days a year. You can get so involved, you do nothing else. After working 70 to 100 hours a week indefinitely. The only other things you do, are eat and sleep. But I loved it. Away from people. Out in nature. The huge variety of jobs. Tractor work etc. But the money can be poor. The prospect of finding a partner, often low. Having any other life but dairy farming. I got out. Glad I did. But bits of me still miss it.

    G’day Johno,
    Welcome to 2024, Happy Australia Day & great drone footage of the coast.
    Had to laugh when you complained running way behind what do you expect hanging out at a dairy farm all day but it was worth it.
    Remind me when I was a sales rep for a stock feed company helped out p,entry of times in a rotary dairy you have to be ready to get your hands dirty.
    Couple of times got squirted on by a friesian but my fav cows were always jersey cows those beautiful eyes they have.
    Stay safe shiny side up rubber side down for 2024.

We got near Eucla and I decided to take him to see the cliffs. First instruction was (do not go to close to the edge!!!!!) I turned around to light up a smoke and when I turned back, the little bugger was standing right on the edge looking down! I nearly crapped my pants,!!!!! Anyway, all turned out well...
