Ian 2,417 #3 Posted February 14, 2014 Some great pictures there, farming back in the days when the whole family helped.. These day's it's all mostly done by contractors! Ok, maybe not herding up sheep but you know what I mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, maybe not herding up sheep but you know what I mean. Made me think that we've a photo in our family collection and here it is: From the early 1930s we think. My wife's mother, uncle and aunt all went to help harvest at the farm in Tetsworth, Oxfordshire when they were children, it was how they spent their summers. Not certain who's who in the photo but the horse was called 'Old Lil' Andy 1 neil reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
