@HoolyMcg Give it a week a see what this next cyclone brings🤞🏾

Ha. Bolgart may finally get on the map 😳😂

@burgess_ag Feet might be the mode of transport for some people

Might need to start selling feet pics on OnlyFans

@JackOutTheBack @HallRaelene Absolutely nailed it. A perfect example of the past that people talk about is the Bob Chamberlain story, he was assisted by the then WA state government to set up business in Welshpool to build his tractors. WA ag has a wonderful history of building our own machinery.

Australians don’t want to go back to the 1950s. They’re asking—what have we actually lost? We used to stand on our own two feet. Now we rely on systems we don’t control. And it doesn’t feel like it’s working. #Australia #AusPol #AnthonyAlbanese #CostOfLiving #RegionalAustralia

@HoolyMcg @HallRaelene @FarmerTonyWhite That bloke is one of a kind, perfect fella for the job, unfortunately a dying breed of true Australian truckie. Carts to the brother in law at Roebuck as well.

When “Blackpower” is coming with a load of UAN at 10pm. Gotta look after him !! @HallRaelene @FarmerTonyWhite

@HoolyMcg Yeah like a drafting gate 👍🏾 Odd how bhp and rio Tinto haven’t had much to say about struggling to get their fuel??

My plan as Energy Minister!!! QR codes are allocated to those that need fuel. #1 Emergency services #2 Agriculture/Transport. #3 mining. #4 General Public. That will take away those hoarding fuel.

@Russputin2 @HoolyMcg Let’s talk about Hay, hay is a combustible material that degrades over time. Hay is stored and carted in bulk with out DG placards. Plenty of hay trailers burn. #spotthealbosupporter ⬆️

@HoolyMcg It actually is and storage is covered by EPA dangerous goods regs, plus storage must be bunded. Diesel fuel requires significant precautions when stored in bulk. While less volatile than gasoline, diesel is a combustible, hazardous material that degrades over time.

People shown on TV reports carrying bulk fuel in illegal, unbaffled drums up to 1,000 litres, may not need to worry about prosecution if their hoard blows them & their neighbours to bits.😀😬 Anything over 250 litres needs Dangerous goods licence & approved purpose built vessel.

@HoolyMcg @SParnis Another melbourian. Ya wasting ya time @HoolyMcg The point your making is correct tho. Electricity isn’t free and doesn’t magically appear at a plug

@SParnis And how was the charging station powered ? Unicorn piss and butterfly shit ?

400km of driving today, and it cost us AU$7.32 at the charger. One thing the disaster of the war in the Gulf will lead to is an accelerated uptake of electric vehicles.

@Glenn_SoilAgro If one was to fuel up their boat on a trailer, how does the tank get fuelled on the ground? Inbuilt tank . So how’s it different to fuelling up a bobcat on the back of a truck?

Just saw someone filling two IBC on trailer with diesel at servo (2000L). Is this not illegal without dangerous goods placards or is 2000L below the threshold?

@farmersgrowit Shipping and air craft don’t get a mention 🤷‍♂️ no surprise mining use majority, triple road trains of tankers heading for the Pilbara is normal.

Industry/fuel usage …… wonder where aircraft fuel sits?

@HoolyMcg Are the triple tankers still running to the Pilbara daily?

My simple question is. Terminals are currently reduced daily fuel output to onsellers (Restrictions /quotas). Where exactly is the “fuel reserve “ our government is talking about ? “Big oil” redirecting ag fuel straight to the city servo’s ! Fact. Not fiction

@TSmith1867 @DanAllred1 Can’t believe that, we are 4 hrs from perth and freight can take a week. Freight from Sydney is 10-14 days.

Ordered a set of pistons from Australia, 3 days ago..😳👌

@lissagiedraitis Seen a bloke leave a clearing sale with a 200 series towing a 25t single axle chaser 🤦‍♂️ reckon the under side of draw bar pin would’ve got gravel rash #cantdoitrightuseaflashinglight

I bet that was a fun trip home

@CasFarmerCD @tobemcgill02 Was going to say exactly what have done 👍🏾 have seen augers go bad from not having support further along barrel. Clutches to allow emptying out. Wet year and bog ruts on head lands give auger heap of bounce in saddle and smashes the top pivots and ball stud.

@tobemcgill02 We put an extra carrier at the back corner of the engine bay to help with the load. We've had the pivot plates wear more, & replaced the ball pivot. We have electric clutches on the cross auger so its never put away full. S690. We have a section of barrel to replace with creases

I need some advice from Controlled Traffic Farmers out there. Does the extra length of the auger and extra hang over the back once it’s folded in have any negative impacts on the auger system over an extended period of time? Thanks in advance. #farming #askag

@Aku_700 Women’s sports needs revealing outfits to keep the blokes out of competing with them

Feminists are getting angry because they believe women's sports has too revealing outfits. What do you think? 😭

mr DFES spokesman might need to get out in the real world. First couple of pages in this weeks Elders. With out farm units and privately owned equipment dfes will be unable to keep up.

@HoolyMcg $25k per 8mt, get these lads to build a highway cheaper than main roads can dream of……..

That is great value for 1 deck. Considering cbh pay in excess of $1.2m for a 4 deck bridge !!

@AdamCoffeyNT @agvocate_au @VicGovAu The sort of forest management that is required 👍🏾 Hopefully the logs get used and not left to waste.

@agvocate_au @VicGovAu Hopefully someone is so they don’t go to waste. Good to see they’re putting in some decent breaks

Who is buying the logs @VicGovAu ?

@ipaddockapps @veritasvans @Starlink Heard the same as you about the mini going down and re-booting when on 12v, we have set our mini up with Dishy Mounts power cable , Anderson plug into vehicle with a power adapter inline to boost to 30v. Haven’t had any problems

@veritasvans My @Starlink mini seems to go down and reboot fairly often, I heard that can be caused by vehicle voltage as they prefer 30V, is it recommended to use a voltage adaptor?

The Starlink Mini can connect 100+ devices, but most setups lack the power and reliability to actually rely on it. We fixed that. Just connectivity you can trust.

@pc602 Very splendid architecture, no engineer plans, no building inspectors, no OHS, no permits. Still standing nearly 150 yr on, where have we gone wrong.

A few days ago we went out to Israelite Bay where back in 1877 they built this magnificent building. It's remote. In 1877 there were 27,800 settlers in WA, spread far and wide, doing amazing things. Sadly the courage of those men and women is being brushed aside.

@Kidcowboy2 At least he’s standing in front of an Australian flag. That’s a good start
