@@elladailylife Thank you Ella. I certainly do love nature, from the birds to the bees, the changing seasons and just being out in the open, breathing in the fresh air while watching the machinery harvesting the crops. It’s the one thing in life I’ll never take for granted and appreciate every day I visit the countryside surrounding me. Many thanks for your lovely comment, kind regards David. I’ve just taken a look at your channel Ella and your videos look fantastic, I will enjoy watching them with autumn and winter fast approaching in the uk.
It's Sunday morning and I'm watching your brilliant video of poetry in motion, lovely machinery. I'm not a farmer like yourself but I love everything you farmers do out in the field. You're appreciated immensely for what you provide the nation with. I used to drive an old MF tractor with a brush on the front and I called it Basil 😁 Thanks for sharing this insight into your world.
@@MONKIPANTS Good morning Monkipants and what a wonderful comment from you my friend. I’m so pleased you enjoyed watching the video and describing the machinery working as poetry in motion is definitely a great observation from you. I’m pleased you mention that not being a farmer yourself but realise how important the agricultural sector is to the economics of the world. So good to hear about Basil the MF, I wonder if he’s still around? Thank you for making my Sunday morning with your beautiful comment, so good to hear from you this morning and best wishes from Cumbria. Take care my friend, cheers David.
Good evening David, thankyou for your lovely reply and I would like to think Basil is still around brushing his way to infinity and beyond! 🚜 😂 I cannot believe this wonderful day, after watching your brilliant video I visited my father-in-law and he told me that a combine was working in the next field and he could see the dust ball rising above the hedge, so, I had to see and off I went and leaning on an old fence post I watched these hard working chaps doing exactly what you were doing, I couldn't see what type of machines they were using as all the dust masked them well but I bet you would know just by the sound. Yellow is all I can tell you about the combine. All the best to you sir, from Warwickshire.
@@MONKIPANTS Ah now I can tell just by you mentioning the colour yellow that it would be a New Holland combine you were watching through the dust leaning against that fence post and also that it would have been a wonderful sight so thank your father-in-law for spotting that cloud of dust telling you about the activities going on! I would like to think Basil is still going strong too, being a MF I can well imagine he is! I often wonder whatever happened to the little Massey 35X that my uncle owned and I learned to drive on many moons ago (about 50 years ago now), I’ve such fond memories of it and can picture myself sitting on that old tin seat with a cushion made from a bag stuffed with straw as the only comfort, hopefully it’s still going strong somewhere? It’s been so good to hear from you today and I’m pleased my video got you off to a good start to your Sunday. I usually post a video at least once a week (though less frequently through the winter months) and while I can’t promise you a classic MF combine every week I can guarantee some lovely machinery working in the fields of Cumbria and some even lovelier views of the beautiful Cumbrian scenery. Take care my friend and once again thank you for your wonderful comments. Cheers, David.
@@donnellykieranj Definitely agree with you there Kieran! 3-cylinder Ford engine one of the best of its kind, 60hp perfect for this kind of job and many more. Cheers, David.
A lovely sight to behold,we in East Lan vs only grow grass so it is lovely to see combined working so far north of Lancashire,I hope you have a good crop.
@@brianmarshall1637 Hi Brian. Now that’s interesting to hear as I didn’t know that East Lancashire was mostly down to grass and I know there’s a lot of grass harvested up here and although not half as much is down to cereals it’s still a delight to watch the crop getting harvested especially with classic machinery. It was a good crop and hopefully the spring barley will be too. Cheers, David.
@@shirleydrury5565 Oh can’t beat it Shirley, the classics still as good as any modern machines and much more exciting to watch. Pleased you enjoyed the video, cheers David. 😀👍
Good evening David and hope you and your partner enjoyed your break. What a cracking video and at first I had to check that you had not acquired The Tardis! Those opening shots and the sound of the Ford 4610 just ticking over was like being right back in 1985 and really gave the video the correct atmosphere. It's really great to see equipment of that era still doing the job it was intended for and I can say for certain, that there was no outstanding finance on any of that kit. They were maybe not the biggest combine and tractor, but they sure were built at a time when they were built to last, and no damned computers in them. At one point in my life I lived in Kilmarnock just up the road from the Massey Ferguson Combine & Tractor factory, but they stopped building combines in 1980. Hope your well and having the same weather as us today, as its been 25 degrees, just perfect for painting the fence haha. Thanks David. Cheers, Fraser.
@@frasermathers2287 And good evening to you Fraser and we have had a lovely time spending time and enjoying a break together. Now I wish I could time travel as I if I did own a tardis there would be no stopping me going back to the fields 20,30,40 and so on to film the machinery I remember so vividly but unfortunately only have a few blurry photos to remind me of. I was pleased the way that little idea came out myself but the best part was seeing the classic machinery still doing a fine job and as you say not a penny owing on finance. Yes many of these smaller machines are ideal for harvesting smaller acreages, built to last and can be fettled with a box of spanners! Yes I well remember the Kilmarnock manufactured MF combines (this 825 I believe is Canadian manufactured)and they were very popular round here though sadly they’re aren’t any about now. I’m very well and it’s been very warm which means the last few days I’ve been visiting quite a few farms filming lots of haymaking especially so plenty of videos to come in the next few weeks once I get them edited together! I bet that paint dried on the fence in no time! Great to hear from you Fraser, take care my friend and speak to you soon. Cheers, David.

Thats a rare one. As a retired agricultural engineer who worked for a MF dealership between 1974 and 2002, I can honestly say there are not many 825 models about. I only ever recall seeing one before. It was a last gasp model from MF before they bought out the Danish Dronningborg range of 24, 27, 29 and 31 combines in 1985.

I also know of an 855 round here which I have filmed before but never thought I would get the chance to capture an 825. There are still a couple of the Dronningborg machines in the area, a 27 and 31XP so again few and far between but as you say not as rare as a Canadian 825. Great comment Robert, thanks for sharing your experiences. Cheers, David.
@@davidwinthrop7077 Are you sure its Canadian built?, I would have thought it was French built at Marquet. Certainly the 845 hydrostatic was built in France.

Yes looking after them, regular maintenance and storing them undercover makes a hell of a difference. The fields in my area certainly haven’t got any bigger but as you say the tractors & combines certainly have as have the purchase prices, fuel consumption and depreciation costs too when it’s not really necessary.
