This week I picked up and delivered machines to new sites with our Scania. Struggled to find material for a hill track. Picked the Takeuchi up and took it home for some new tracks, supplied and fitted by Argyll Engineers. Took the lorry in for an inspection and out the next day. Finished the week of in the office catching up on paper work. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Great to read comments from around the world about the spectacular scenery when we work in it every day and take it for granted
That is indeed a gorgeous view across the loch. 😊
Amy, when you said burn, as in little stream, I laughed, it's so refreshing to here some old descriptive words like was spoken a time ago. I love seeing your machine work but mind you it's got good operator . You do work in remote places and I have to say I,m jealous of the view you have..
Aww very old school here still. I’m very lucky with the views. Thank you for watching 😊
Amy, that access route you showed us, is why … some farmers and contractors in the Marlborough Sounds use barges, at times, even where there is proper road access🙂. It is also a useful option when extreme weather causes slips and low traffic roads are at the bottom of the Council repair list. Cheers from NZ🇳🇿!
P.S. Skin is waterproof😁!
P.P.S. Dry seat trousers/shorts can be useful. If I know in advance that I might be operating our little open cab excavator on a wet day, I wear my dry seat trousers. They are a bit restrictive and heavy for the bush but useful on site during wet periods.
It’s mind blowing how that doesn’t get used more in Scotland totally makes sense! However when the timber comes out of this job it’ll be by barge I’m sure! Thank you 😊😊
Beautiful, intellectual, skilled, and great accent
Love the content especially the out takes at the end. Like the way you got the bucket onto the trailer at the start of the video. Work smarter etc.
OK first a woman raised in Scotland complaining about the rain is like Willie wonka complaining about chocolate 😂love your videos reminds me of my plant delivery days ,people would think because a machine has tracks it can anywhere 😂😂I used to say it isn't a helicopter or a boat 😂
😂😂 rains fine if you don’t have to work in it 🤣 aw you’re flying with the comments this morning 😂
@@the_digger_girl no wonder your only a wee little one beautiful flowers need watering to grow 😂
Don’t mind that. Let the rain fall and enjoy splatting on her as a Scotland girl man 🤣
Sorry wrong conTEXT
As a Scotland girl. Again. Hahaha
You make Sundays more enjoyable 🙉 love catching up with your videos and ashville! Honestly you’re such a happy vibe, wish more people were like you 🥰
Ahh love this. Thank you so much, I love watching Ashville myself 😍
YOU LIVE AND WORK IN AMAZING PLACE
Don’t I just 😍😍
The view’s are amazing on your videos 😊
Aren’t they just 😍
Should always keep a pair of trousers in you bag for those nice rainy days lol
Another great video with a coffee and you are so lucky to work with outstanding views on machines I run we have fitted a thumb on the dipper arm so you can move rocks and trees easily with out putting a different attachment on and may I say your hair with curls makes you look more beautiful. I can't wait till next weeks video keep safe
Aww thank you so much 😃
Luv the Bloopers ...
Nothing is going to stop you Amy you always find a way
Great video again good to see the terrian you have to deal with but yes what a beautiful place to work .Love the way you manhandled the bucket you should get sponsored by Scott's porridge oats 😂 thanks again for posting. 👍
Hey Amy...the view is magic...and I'm jealous.... you'd make a great tour operator if you need a sideline job..Great vlog and looking forward to next week already....

Love this, thank you so much for watching and commenting 😊
@@the_digger_girl your welcome Amy, as an owner operator myself it’s nice to see women in construction! I work mainly on sea defence moving rock and I have two girls working with me operating dump trucks! They work hard, never late, and don’t moan about working overtime 👍
That's refreshing; you actually speak my language... 😄
Hi Amy.
Another brilliant video, your skills are getting better. .the way that you got that bucket loaded.
if you had a Drone you could have
showed more of them beautiful views up there. I can't stop talking about your Hair again it's beautiful.
at the finish of the video I saw you having a fall. is your leg all right..
bye for now Amy. ❤❤❤
I have really thought about getting a drone maybe I should! Thank you 😄
Ha ha ha
Bonawe Quarry, I wonder how the Goiky the Taynault shagger is!!!!l
Awesome to think that Kings House Hotel is at the other end of that glen.
I do miss the old coating plant.
Great video as always and the views certainly are beautiful, and all that time you spend at the Gym certainly proved worthwhile at this new job, I follow you every week from here in NZ 🇳🇿 it's such a nice change from what I do here 🤗🤗
Nice video for a Sunday curls😉😎💪who needs gym pulling buckets like that hope your having a nice day 😊
You said it 🙌🏼
Another great video Amy Thank You 😊. You really shouldn’t feel so surprised when you achieve something you are a very capable woman and put some people to shame. Great we bit of singing lol you can always fall back on that if you get fed up with the digger work 😀. Keep up the great work. Have a great week 😊
Thank you so much 😊
Your more than welcome 😊
Hi Amy awesome video again thanks. Don't think anyone can say that you are daft far from it. Great how you can think on your feet, think you have done the trick with the straps before. You certainly get to work in some beautiful places the scenery is beautiful. Must be great how you can just jump in the lorry and move your equipment about, i did laugh when Dipper ran to get in the machine away from the midges. When you fell in the hole was the first thing you did look up to see if anyone saw?,hope you didn't hurt yourself?. Hope you have a fantastic week ahead take care and stay safe and give Dipper a pat he's a star 🌟 😊.
Thank you very much for your comment luckily I didn’t hurt myself 🤣
Hi lassie an other bizzie week for you xx❤❤
A great video Amy your such a great person who can get around most problems with out to much bother very clever how you moved that bucket on to your trailer thank you for showing a little insight on dipper real enjoyed it looking forward to seeing the next video 😊 😊
Thank you so much 😊
Hi amy going up the hillside way up to there is not much fill material up there might have to bring in a tracked dumper and move material as needed not easy high up in the hills. That tumble at end of the video looked quite sore on the leg and hip but was good content see you next week very enjoyable thanks
Yea that’s what we were thinking but managed to get a little!! It was a sore one I was very lucky I didn’t hurt myself being away up there with no signal! Thank you for watching and commenting 😊
You are awesome. Absolutely rock you do. Really enjoy & love your videos.
Thank you 😊😊
@@the_digger_girl Your most welcome.
You are resilient I know some guys who would’ve waited for help to get the bucket down ..keep #Winning
Ohh I don’t have that option 😅 thank you 😊
Great content as always. Hope you're managing to get some rest after all that work. A lovely Sunday to you Amy✌️
Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed 😀
A woman of many talents such a great places you work well filmed and edited don’t know where you get all the time and energy thanks for sharing
Beautiful view
Hi Amy great video fantastic views you have a great office hope your ok after your fall you need wider boots keep you on the track 😉👍🤙
Another enjoyable vid as always Amy and those views are stunning must find the time to holiday in Scotland one day as I have a very good farming friend from the Dumfries area and he keeps asking me to visit him, anyway I'm sure you will get that hill track sorted out in no time, and hope you didn't hurt yourself to much when your foot went down that hole but at least no one saw you also do love seeing the bloopers at the end of the vids, anyway hope you had a chill weekend in this lovely warm weather we've been having.
Ayyy up Amy,great vlog the views you have to deal with in Scotland are really amazing what a wonderful place you live in.hope you have a great week see you next vlog
So much energy!!!
Too much some times 🤣
Hard workin and beautiful great video.
Great video! Thanks for taking us along.
Thank you for watching 😃
Very clever, thinking outside the box there.
If there’s a will there’s a way! Thank you 😊
That be so true, keep up the good vids, I enjoy watching them. Good to see the Scottish country side, my great grandparents all came out from Scotland in the 1800s, out to NZ. Cheers.@@the_digger_girl
Your a smart cookie Amy , getting that Bucket on the trailer 😊
Thank you 😊
Lovely to see, thanks Amy 👌
Just love these rural tracks ...and your driving the Scania along them. I think I could get my self into trouble by underquoting for jobs in beautiful locations 😄
Rubber tracks again ? I guess you'll explain in the Takeuchi vid.
I guess the Highlands are about the best place for drinking water out of a stream, but backpackers are using Sawyer Squeeze Water Filters, if it helps. Removes 99.99999% of bacteria, reusable - just reverse flow to flush it out.
You handle the truck well - I think you said you were trucking before digging ? It would be interesting to hear about those times.
Thank you very much. Our kubotas have rubbers to change over to but we like keeping the takeuchi on rubber so we don’t have to swap them about and keep them for more road like work!😊
@@the_digger_girlOh, thanks Amy, that makes sense 👍
As a recent sub and an interested layman, I've been looking back at your vids, including the equipment vid and just love the way you and John have evolved the equipment to perfectly suite the requirements.
another awesome video amy your awesome
Love ur videos Amy ❤
Thank you 😀😀
Good video Amy
I’m glad you enjoyed, thank you 😃
Looks like the gym work is paying off the way you tip the bucket over.
Make sure you get the spacing sorted properly on that plate before the local constabulary give you a fine
No points straightening that hair in that weather 😂😂😂
Absolutely not!! 😂
Good video
Thank you 😊😊
Good old Scottish Rain .....
You could always work in swimming costume and steel toecaps lol
Where there is a will, there’s a way 👍
Hi that was a cool move by a wee Scottish lassie
Also loving the wet hair look lol x
Not the first time I've walked through the quarry and went another mile to fish 🤣
It’s a long haul out isn’t it 😅
@the_digger_girl just an ickle bit🙈🤣
Not just a pretty face lol :-) Well done on the digger bucket :-)
Brilliant love the dipper content there's never a dull moment your always off doing something which is obviously a good thing anyway all good keep them coming nice trip by the way 🤣👍
Thank you so much. I always like getting kept busy 😊
Now that’s how you load a dumped bucket,
Wee tip fr yee amy before any road i start i always divert as much water off it before i start then ur no paddlin about ruining the ground before you start
Can’t divert it when the hill is soaking 😂
@@the_digger_girl i usually jst made a wee shuck in the sod try n keep it away as much knoe its no easy
❤
Only way to lessen the steepest bits is to add distance
Absolutely!
@@the_digger_girl absolutely yes lol and when looking for good stone for roads I always walked the road line with a steel rod and probed the ground to avoid deep peat and see what the clay felt like before digging but you probably know that lol keep in the good digger girl lol 😀😀
Got the best of gear on for the rain though,RevolutionRace 👏🏻
Absolutely 🥰
Brilliant video as usual. I really admire your positive attitude to getting things done. We have some nice scenery in the West of Ireland but most of it wouldn't compare to where you are working. Looking forward to next week's upload
What can I say what a top video love watching u
Thank you so so much 😊
Are u single nowx
Swap the tacho card and keep her lit 😂
Michael Cusack Smith yes
Please be careful Amy moving buckets like that, i thought I was invincible when I was a Younger, the Experienced hand's warned me then I'd give myself a Hernia, I didnt listen and they were right.
Hope your ok after ur fall but I'm just wondering what are you going to do about the new road u r doing with the 6 tonne digger as u couldn't find any fill up the mountain where you were working
There will be something might just have to look a bit further 😊
@@the_digger_girl o right
Great video! Thanks
👏👏👏👏👏👌🤘
I could listen to you talk all day I love your ascent ! And you’re really good at running a track hoe keep up the good work ,be safe !
Hey there my best friend. I have something shocking to tell you. I was looking for skins for truckers of Europe 3 which is a truck game and you can add skin livery’s to the truck. I know Trucker Tim who has that nice truck and I looked for some skins and ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS SKINS THE SAME TIM HAS ON HIS TRUCK AND I DOWNLOADED IT AND tried it and it looks Cool. My Dreeeaaaaaammmmmmm. Now I’m a partner with tim and you too.
Could be worse……
Could live in Lochaber!!!!
Wettest region in the UK.
Hi, beautiful digging girl, you have become my favorite on TH-cam, you are amazing, many kisses to you😘😘
Ahhhh LOVE this comment. Thank you so much 😊
Michael Cusack Smith

That boring scenery again, 🤣😂 Poor dipper being made to sit in the back of that truck, no comfy seat and no AC. Glad he got ots of attention from the track guys though, as the star of the show he deserved it. 🤗👍
My friend dog watching this he needs a job can dogs drive diggers 😂
Y u took comment of
