    On the farm back in the 1980s we had a 1900s paraffin oil driven water pump in a building that was in a bad state, so over a couple of weeks we remodelled it into a steam engine, it had lots of locals wondering how a steam engine got into the field. It got replaced by an electric pump about a decade afterwards. Another farmer summed it up "aye, that's what happens when idle hands get some time" 🤣

    Your video's are really a masterpiece Adrian, when I started watching it was because of the whole Brexit situation and the Farmers concerns, you show us what is really needed by the modern farmer, animal husbandry seems to be only a small portion of the skills you are required to have, you folks in the farming community are criminally undervalued.

      Dutch Farmers are very concerned re EU regulations hence their demonstrations. At the same time It’s funny (not) how Europe wants to cut down on Beef production whilst allowing more meat to come in from South America where they in turn are cutting down even more rain Forrest because of the increase in demand for their beef. 🤔

      @@stephennutkin2477 it's awful and farmers are so important, I share Adrian's videos to everyone I know as well as others, it's fun, they enjoy the content and it always starts a discussion that farmers deserve a lot more recognition then they get, hard work for little reward.

    Absolutely nothing seems to phase you. It's handy to have a range of skills on the farm instead of relying on other people. That is some job on the pump house. It brings back memories of crossing the field on a winter night with a half barrel, to light a fire and attempt to keep the pump from freezing. Multi tasking and filming it can't be easy. Great video as usual. Thanks for sharing your week

    My holiday job whilst in High School (in Australia) was to dig out Agricultural Irrigation Pipe Junctions and then add all the appropriate Pipe Connections / Pipe Junctions.
    Whilst I was doing this, the Boss and his Crew were busy burying the Irrigation Pipes across the paddocks.
    Whenever the Boss went looking for, Me he just had to scope the horizon for a Big Beach Umbrella and wherever it was I was working in the shade beneath it.

Had to laugh a bit when you switched the doorknocker around instead of ditching it. 😄 Made all kinds of sense to put that little concrete pad in front of it. The pumphouse renovation, even with still having to finish it up, is a lot nicer than some residental renovations I've seen! Great video as always, Adrian. Fun to see your two doggos supervising, making sure you've got it right, with an editorial phart as a opinion on the matter... 😄 All the best to you and your family from over here in the States - cheers, and have a good week coming up!
