We need more story times with bill

Feeling 30%, recently became single and living in Scotland to moving back to Sheffield. Been a tough few weeks but your videos re helping me through Olly, so thank you mate

Bills story time added a nice wee touch to the norm Olly🤗 Poor Ian had to hunt down the buggy to do the birthday and he got his hair cut for the occasion 😊 95% today

Bill is a fountain of knowledge & brilliant at explaining it clearly. I could listen to him all day.

Nice to hear Bill and a bit of history

80% today started therapy today after years of anxiety and depression. Loved bill story time. I also love how you are with your staff olly. I committed on Joe's video say about he kept saying negative things about his staff. People make mistakes, but you always just seem to accept what happened and problem solve it. A refreshing and loving way of working.

Im pretty sure that chipper is like triggers broom just more moving parts. 😂

Great video olly i really enjoyed bills talk

Many thanks Bill, fascinating snippet of history. Goos to see you looking happier Olly. Nothing happening here, just maintenance. 90% Take care.

Cab Corn! and we need more of Bill`s Local Knowledge

Wow those fields are wet. Great knowledge Bill, and congratulations on your nomination as the next Lord Mayor of Hale Village, a position my Dad also held a number of years ago and something he is very proud of to this day. See you all very, very soon. 80%.

Love the history nice touch to the history of the area 👍

Feeling not much better today 33% more blood tests tomorrow fingers crossed for the results, thanks for the help people much appreciate

9@20 - That's the first time I've seen a Fastrac get stuck in up to the axles!! 🤣

Great story Bill. Keep em coming. Thanks for sharing.

Good to hear bits of historic information theres so much local history in all areas lost forever if not taken note of. 90% today back fencing where im at my happiest, forcast not good for us in South East wales tomorrow by the looks.

Another superb blog Olly, and story time with Bill was good. Great to see you harvesting once again! Fendt power to the rescue!! 🚜👏✊👍

Great bit of history there from Bill. It's bonkers that you have to tow a tractor and trailer out of a field at the end of July because it's so wet.

😎

What a brilliant story that bill told! Has my home city of york in it to top it off! Fantastic! ✌🏻❤️👌 hope your all really well today! X

Thanks for the update Olly very interesting. Hopefully better weather is on the horizon so life should be easier for the rest of harvest. Bills a great historian and there's a lot of history in your area. Must have been great 500 years ago.

Nice little bit of history from bill. Looks a busy day and some harvesting done .......top-team 🚜🚜about 85% need me bed good night

Really liked Bills history lesson, more of that please!

Great video Olly it’s always nice to hear stories I bet Bill has loads of them 👏👏👍👍

Yesterday was a 94%. Bill has a very soothing voice. 👍🇬🇧

Nothing but a little bit of black and red power to the rescue 💪

I think ian could be one of lord ruperts descendants! Very interesting about the river crossing, just been reading a book on the history of yorkshire! Violent times back then!

Great video Olly great little history lesson from Bill

Good video Olly and Bill's story was a real treat, Ian did another cracking job on the Birthday bumper. 70% today .

What an interesting time listening to Bills tales ,Back combine in again and doing a bit of recovery work getting the Fastrac stuck we’ve just had 190 mm of rain in July I don’t know what’s happened to the weather it’s awful feeling 94% today another fantastic video Ollie

85% today, thank you for asking. Your fields are as wet and soft as ours are. Hope you have a great day. Stay dry and happy 😂.

Great video Olly the history from Bill was very interesting 😊😊60%

Remember being in the cab watching corn flow from above wondering what was happening 😂 80%

All hail to the next Lord Mayor 😊 Great stuff as usual. May be less weight in the trailers then they won't sink. Hind sight from my sofa is so easy. 😂😂😂 Keep going 💪 😊

50% so not too bad, always find it great when youve been in an area for years then find out some amazing facts that you never knew about the place. Great vid yet again.

That was a Great Story from Bill, I am sure he will be a Credit to the Hale when he's Mayor 👌

That 936 makes the fastrac look like a ride on mower when it pulls it out

Glad to see you've made progress,dry'ish day today until 6.30,then monsoon for an hour,now driving drizzle and storm force winds for tomorrow, lovely. 65%,even too wet to put in some forage rape after barley

Geat video as always Ollie! Love watching the harvest videos and hear that you're expecting better yields and the monitor is reading 8-9t/ha, while here in Australia we're happy with 4-5t/ha. Whats even more interesting is when you look at national wheat yield averages and the UK is supposedly 8.5-9t/ha while Australias 2-2.5t/ha, but the acres harvested in UK are small when compared with Australia. Just goes to show that theres only so much t/ha we can squeeze out of our ancient soils.

Rain time = maintenance opportunity and looks like this paid off. Experience didn't pay off this time, Olly but the ladies are learning by trial and making errors that won't happen a second time - hopefully!! 90% today, so glad you got back out - if you are combining near the field with the slither of crop I'd reap it = profits

90% today weather is rubbish but on holiday so it doesn’t matter to me but feel very sorry for the Yorkshire farmers around here flat wheat flat barley and soggy OSR that’s going black. Very varied day you had and good to watch

Playing catch up again 😂. Great video. Your chipper works really hard, maintaining it to the level you do is the only way. I was feeling 85% yesterday and similar today so far, all depends on what today has in store for me. Have a good one 👍

Agree with stuartmason cab chat to interview your team, a bit about their past, and the role they play in the team. 60% like everybody pissed off with the weather.

hey olly get yourself a leaf blower for cleaning the grain off the floor. will be a bit more dusty but you wont be in it as long.

Yep you need to do a weekly cab chat would be brilliant let's start with Charlotte or Rob and what about your Dad

93% for me, 91% for my boy who's just watched your video with me. The 936 did a good job pulling the Fastrac out, no surprise having seen it tractor pulling.

Feeling 80% today. Loads to do but need it to dry up first 🤦🏼‍♂️

well done............Like the random interviews .........90%

Great history lesson from Bill . 90%

Great video Olly

Story time with Bill was interesting….. give him a weekly segment 🤔 also what happened to the river crossing washes away or still there when tide goes out?? Ian would be long find buggy if a pint OR money in it 😜😂

Poor kids will get there trainers dirty going through that fermented grass!😢

We had a completely dry and sunny day at last. North Kent.

Your chipper is like triggers broom 😂😂

95% today. Flew over to Paris yesterday and drove down to Tignes for our month in France. Now we just need to win the lottery

There's high pressure on the way in a weeks time looking promising its looking good we have to be positive we will get it done n finished

We had sun most of day in Lincolnshire

95% today... top vlog lots of everything

I thought you had it when the trailer came out?? Great effort

That was so interesting to hear what bill had to say. 90% today

Well done bill intresting

Probably feeling about 25/30% just now. Was involved in a car accident just over a week ago and the stress of it all has literally made me ill, so off work and have a psychiatric evaluation on Thursday which I'm not looking forward to. 😒 I'm a positive person so hopefully everything is all worked out well in the next couple months. 😮

Hi Olly 8 to 9 ton average per hectare seems a lot here in South Africa that is a massive crop even on irrigation land

Feeling 65%-70% today. Body feels week from arms going numb when I sleep (going for a massage soon to fix that hopefully) and a sore throat started today but I think that from the forest fires near by.

Need more of bill definitely plenty of story's between yous

Hunt the buggy 😂😂

The battle Bill was talking about near York was Marston Moor in 1644, NOT Stamford Bridge. That was in 1066.

bill's got fantastic teeth 😁 Only saying that as tomorrow iam getting mine all taken oot Look after yer teeth folk !

Proper Tractorpulling today :p

80% today. Sold my farm in Alberta this week.

70% today knees and back are better but sore shoulder now ,spent 1 1/2 hrs last night swinging a big mallet on the side of a meal bin at work because the meal had bridge so I am suffering today it’s no fun getting old 😡

Think you should start a new feature, maybe once a week called 'Bill's Time', where Farmer Bill teaches us all something, we might not ever need to know what he teaches us but it is nice to learn something from a wise man.

We need more stories from bill

Olly if that hedge cutter is for council work you need signs out mate it illegal and even if it not for council work and you shouldn’t be driving on the verge to cut a hedge mate he pint of a verge is stop cars not let then go and my dad is flat out and he is still 2 weeks behind it because of how much people want him

Can Bill start a history of the counties of Britain,a great story.

Feeling 25% today, got shouted at by an angry farmer for taking photos of his combine from afar whilst standing on the side of a quiet country lane and looking through a large gap in the hedge. I'm not fortunate enough to live on a working farm, so I love going to watch other people bringing in the harvest, and, as I'm a keen tractor enthusiast and a photographer, I've always liked capturing harvest in action and often submitting photos to farmers weekly competitions. 🤷🏻‍♂️As to why this one farmer was so annoyed at me, and got out of the cab cursing at me, I don't know, I was on public land (a road) and I was safely out of the way of any machinery and I wasn't trespassing or anything close to that, plus I was taking combine photos from afar, so I'm not entirely sure why this one bloke had it in for me. He definitely wasn't representing farmers well, and tbh was quite offensive towards me.

Hi Olly. 95% today. Do UK farmers get any grants from Govt for Tillage equipment, Trailing Shoes ?? Padraig.

who was it asked the other day how the trailers were traveling!!!!!!! well they put the kybosh on that didn't they😂😂

Great story time from Bill. 90% today

90% today. Been driving a truck all day.

Remember if you get the perfect year, so do other growers and then the yields are up and prices drop!

75% tried some wheat today, tested at 18.8% so stopped, may regret not continuing as raining now😢

That shredder would break your heart every week something

Well done being on North West tonight, fighting the fight reminding people where stuff actually comes from feeling a 7 today

Slow your roller speed down on the chipper if you can to match the chain conveyor speed

Chipper roller fitting new teeth onto it might cause it to overfeed machine causing more problems no win situation new teeth higher output but possible more break downs

60% today Still fighting chest infection that just won’t go 😢

Bit down today I've got to go and have a test for Parkinson's 65%

Typical Fastrac. Keep on the tarmac - great bit of kit. Put it in a field and it can't pull a skin off a rice pudding.

Another great video of the battle. I was just wondering when someone is backing up to something or in close quarters you keep saying.., gwarn gwarn gwarn gwarn.? Is that french or something for ' keep coming' ?

Historian bill 👍

feeling a good 70%, but a little disturbed that you said a farmer can cut an hedge whenever he wants , what about during breeding season for the birds, surely you would not cut hedges at these times ?

I am 70% today.

Can you not Olly leave the trailers out side as you said you were going to with one. But put a cover over it.
