The start of July and it's the hottest day of thSee youear. Does this pressage a good summer?  Back to the serious business if keeping UK agriculture up and running, yes, work. Today's run round only needed to include a Doncaster drop to cover all the extremes of my area. I started at Newbald with a farm drop. I saw no one and, of course, it was all to come off by hand. Then forty rolls of silage wrap to Howden, and the only machine lift of the day.  From there to Carlton store for a small drop and to collect two bags of hen meal to complete an order for later and also collect a single bag for Gatehelmsley on my way back to base. Next drop was a tonne of horse feed at Halifax. All by hand and again there was no one there. Horsey people love work, they could watch it all day. Then off to Wyke just North of Leeds with nearly a tonne of mixed product. Once again all by hand on my own, must be the heat keeping the customers in doors.

Great view, just a pity about the rest of the way out.

I wish people who plant trees would trim them. I folded up my mirrors going in and out.

A dying digger just entering terminal decay.

see you tomorrow.
