First job was back to seed dressing, or in this case cleaning. The customer had attempted to drill his beans straight from the combined, not a good idea. He had successfully and comprehensively blocked his drill. Not only that but he was planting weeds along with beans. I'm sure his chemical supplier love's him. The first 50kg of beans stopped the tipping auger dead. I haven't tightened its belts this season so I attended to that laps. During this operation I discovered that the only thing holding one of the pensioners on was the galvanising, the weld had missed the plate. The galvanising had given up the struggle so the tensioner was loose. A pair of mole grips made a temporary repair and I removed twenty five kilos from the weigh box so as not to overload the auger. Things went we'll but cautiously after that and i was back in the yard by lunch time. I was given the pleasure of swapping a tonne of horse feed that one of my comrades had delivered incorrectly. Yes you're right, no forklift, all by hand. But it's good exercise after lunch. Lastly I got loaded for morning and gained an extra half hour in bed in the morning. See you tomorrow.
