Seed dressing again today. The days work was four smaller jobs of not more than four tonnes. The trouble with a day like this is that I spend more time setting up and cleaning down than I do seed dressing. The first customer was at Chop Gate, note of Helmsley, two and a half tonnes of barley, the second at Old Byland, three tonnes of barley. The third near Reivoux Abby, four tonnes of barley. And the last near Pockley, four tonnes of oats. Oats are difficult for my machine, it copes well infill you try to get them out. The angle of the bagging spout is too shallow and they stick. But I only had five blockages for the four tonnes, not bad. But I did have the machine on a slope towards the chute, it's supposed to be set level. But I survived without flooding my temper. See you tomorrow.
