Barney is now here with Carol and I. He's had a good walk, covering 18miles. Some by road and some on muddy, soggy footpaths across farmland. Luckily the weather's been kind with just a briefish hail shower. A more informative account of his journey can be found on Facebook. mylongwalkroundbritain

All the Best, Mike.

Barney Lee is on a charity walk round Britain's coast line. You can read all about it on his website. https://barneylee.co.uk/ Tomorrow morning he starts out from Silloth on Solway and I'll be meeting him, somewhere between Cardurnock and Brough by Sands, on the Solway Coast. I'll then bring him home to spend the night with Carol and I. In the morning, I'll return him to where I picked him up and from there he will continue his walk.

Looks good.

Should be ok. You could always go to a weigh bridge just to be sure. Weigh van loaded with tractor. The way you'd have an idea of the tractors weight. BTW. Where are you located?

Ben. Weight wise, at a guess 3/4 to a ton with the mowers. What's the van?

I wish I had your patience, Richard. Superb work!

They're bad. Especially the red one. Looks like they need the bad areas cut out and new material welded in. Or fibre glassing.

I still miss my girls. Rusty just over a year ago and Katie just over two. 15 and 14 respectfully. They won't be being replaced.

That's just a sprinkling.

The C125 went to it's new home this morning with it's happy owner. After we'd unloaded the trailer of logs he'd brought me. So I'm happy too.

I'm saddened to hear your parting with them, Jonathan. After all the time, labour and not to mention money, you have put into them. I can fully understand why, though. I sincerely hope someone can be found to buy them as a complete collection.

Looking good. For a John Deere.

Still got high winds up oop North. Quite a bit of flooding as well. No trees down though.

I'd soon sort them.

Spectacular! Did you go for a paddle?

Very nice.

Nice little winch, John. Good find.

I got one this morning. Again an eastern accent, but a male. Supposedly from Openreach about my internet. For some reason he didn't like something I said and hung up. Then there's the one's about my Amazon account. Funny that. I don't have one.

You should have grabbed it, wrung it's neck and popped it in the chimera.
