They’re incredible machines. Got a spin in one for our cut. The driver was saying you’ve to be fierce mindful of the back end they’re bigger length than you’d think.
You’d want to be a serious pilot to be driving one.
There were two of them here today from Drom. One of the drivers was only 19 or 20.
He came on his own in May. Cut the headlands of three fields around half nine at night just before the dark. Finished around 1 am.
I’m not sure how they make their money. Everyone wants silage cut at the same time nowadays.

Good news
What impact would you say it had on the climate?
Reduced co2
By how much?
Dr Aidan Nulty brought a certain gravitas to the weather forecast, which was reassurance there was no need to panic.
