@Gav_S_Harper Gav, promise me you will try this next time out for the goats

What a try!!

The dregs of society at it again. 6th time since Christmas. I didn’t realise planting hedges was so offensive to some people. @EastLothPolice

Companion cropping 👀🤦‍♂️

Words fail me. Just some of the nails scattered across a field entrance. No idea if this was a personal thing or just someone looking for a laugh #britishfarming

Another farmer looking for harvest help. If you fancy a few months sat on various green tractors in East Lothian please get in touch : Fraser.bain@gmail.com Some experience and a sense of humour essential

Just been sent this email from @fazendagroup. You have the best lamb in the world on your doorstep and chose not to use it. Nobody should be celebrating something they have shipped from the other side of the world especially when there’s a global climate conference on here

East Lothian is a beautiful place to farm, but the dregs of society like this don’t half ruin it. Huge volume of tyres dumped in my gate and chucked in the verges/pavements for over 2 miles @EastLothPolice @ELCouncil @NFUStweets

@Saxobeat10 @Eurovision @EURO2020 2022 six nations? 👀

Italy are the kings of Europe 👑 First the @Eurovision and now @EURO2020 #ITA #EURO2020 #KingsOfEurope

@rwlservices @fleming_duncan @forster_1 Could you please send me some photos

@fleming_duncan @AlexPeace3 @forster_1 Couple of Grimme Variants that would do a turn if interested. #cheap #couldbeyours

Hoping the power of Twitter can help me here. Looking for an old potato/onion harvester for a project. Even leek/carrot kit would do. Basically something old-ish and affordable that has the ability to lift a niche crop out the ground. Open to borrowing, renting or buying

@standeneng Nothing yet

@AlexPeace3 Have you found a machine?

@STPEcouk Hoover would possibly do but again haven’t found any. Ransomes or asa lift also

@AlexPeace3 Not a problem! Keep us posted, be interesting to see what you come up with. Beds are perhaps a little wide for something like a Superfaun, but maybe an old hoover would do the trick? Not a lot gets you into a cart from that narrow, maybe some back bending ahead 🥵

@STPEcouk Beds are 4 foot. It doesn’t have to go into a cart. Could just drop on the ground either behind or at the side. I’ve had a few people suggest superfaun but haven’t found any for sale

@STPEcouk Thanks but I think that’s probably too big for what I need

@AlexPeace3 We've a 1700 Variant with a onion baffle and haulm elevator fitted. Would cover a multitude of root crops. Pics here: stpe.co.uk/images/ToC/Gri… Plenty of other options on the site to give you some ideas.

@Kelvinpate1 @annabelhami11 Thanks kelvin, not sure it would with this

@AlexPeace3 @annabelhami11 Hi Alex, it’s older than your dad and hasn’t moved in a long time welcome to try and make it work .

@standeneng Garlic

@AlexPeace3 What is the crop?

Just calm yourself 👀 Quite possibly more rain last night than we’ve had since February

Vandalism by dirt bike strikes again. Growing field of Oilseed Rape this time with a good portion now uprooted. Becoming a regular occurrence here, farming right beside Tranent. @EastLothPolice @LothianLoop @NFUStweets @wjtwheatrig
