    Good to see a Todd cleaner loader still earning it's keep, back in the day worked for Herbie Todd's son, Herbie was still around, very clever self taught engineer and first world war fighter pilot, a privilege to have met him!

    Great video figures really well explained need one of those prefabricated hangers building over the pad to keep the rain and frost of and let the beet dry out.

    Interesting stuff chap. It sounds as if you did well to get the crop out of the ground when you did as we appear to be getting some pretty wet weather this week. I've not noticed many machines in action for several days down here in and around Ely.
    Hope you and your good lady had a good rest and a peaceful Christmas sir. Keep up this good work. Cheers.

    If you put the cleaners at right angles to each other, you could cut the handler travel distance by 50%. Just a suggestion!

      Once we got a few loads out we went over the side nearest the heap so that had a similar effect. Well spotted!

    Hi ya Andrew, quick question, any market for sugar beet as a feed, to dairy and beef men? I’m farming here in Ireland and you can’t even get your hands on it at the moment, it’s making anything from 70 to 100 euro a tonne, dirt and all!!

    Thanks for the update Andrew. One of these mornings your access to work will be delayed by a 44 ton truck on its side that one was lucky to get back on the road for sure. Your doing well keeping the dirt tares down I'm no expert but golng back to the eighties on Dickinsons on many occasions Eric our loader driver would have to clean out under the belts after each load. Anyway thanks again and have a Merry Christmas to you and Rhonda not forgetting Nala and Frankie.

    • @WardysWaffleAndrewWard

      You can’t clean up the soil very well around and under the cleaner and around the heap with a beet bucket. I think we get less damage too.

    Thanks for the video's throughout the year. very interesting to see the weekly running of the farm, I work in a quarry in Norfolk but farming is in the heart and for maintaince on our tracks we use a grader pulled behind a loading shovel. it is easy to make, all it is are 2 horizontal I beams wider than the machine pulling it joined together with 2 vertical I beams holding them together, this is fitted to the towing machine with a chain long enough length so the front beam keeps flat on the ground, Add weight to it if the ground is hard, but make it so the weight can be removed if the track is not hard, Merry Christmas,

    Hi Andrew. Hope you’re having a good Christmas break. It’s always so interesting watching your videos every week. It’s nice seeing different ways of doing things. It’s always giving me new ideas on my own farm.
    Question I was asked yesterday form a man that puts 4 sugars in his tea. Does McDonald’s use British sugar? As McDonald’s are really good at promoting British farming.
    It makes me mad when you go to supermarkets and they don’t stock silver spoon sugar. Just madness in eyes.

    • @WardysWaffleAndrewWard
      @WardysWaffleAndrewWard  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ive asked the same question too and I believe they do use British sugar, it would be nice if their sachets had a 🇬🇧 on them. The Co op don’t see silver spoon but not sure which others. Thanks for watching and a merry Christmas. 🎅🎄

    • @roberthiggins6401

      In down in Kent and my local sainsbury only had their own brand but it had a union jack on it but when I looked it said it was from cane. It went back on the shelf, so their sugar was the same, icing, castor, etc. Naughty in my book.

    • @WardysWaffleAndrewWard
      @WardysWaffleAndrewWard  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really is. Food labelling to reflect country of production/origin really needs looking at. The government have ignored it for years.

    • @alvinmusson5074
      @alvinmusson5074 ปีที่แล้ว

      It would be nice to see McDonald’s and others to put the 🇬🇧 there sugar bags if true British sugar.
      Yes Co op definitely doesn’t sell Silver spoon sugar. I’ve never seen silver spoon sugar in Spar stores I’ve been in. So there sugar stays on the shelf.
