It good to be honest and kind in life

Tom, I know you won’t see this but if you do, I’m so jealous that you still get to farm and spend time with your Dad! Please Please cherish it, you won’t regret it. I would give almost anything to spend a day cutting hay with my dad. I get to do it with my son, and I hope he feels the same someday. Wishing you and your family nothing but the best, and thank you for letting us be in your lives! A humble haymaker from western Pennsylvania USA.

Tom, take easy on yourself. We are all doing the best we can. Take a deep breath, and walk on. Life is short.

We haven't seen Miss Joanna for a while! Good to see you both working together and having a good time. ❤️

Best part of the video "at least it's good content for the video" you need to bring him along more often

The mower damage can happen to anyone when the manholes are unmarked. It happens. However, you need to put some flags/markers on those manholes to prevent the visibility problem, so they aren’t hidden by the tall grass surrounding them in your fields.

Love the innocence of the young ones. Sometimes they have the best view on things, we just have to listen.

I will give you a pro tip, Tom, it is also low cost to keep things like this from happening, load up a car, fourwheeler or tractor with orange electric fence poles, or take white ones and put a orange flag on them with something, so they are clearly visible After every cut, you put them up at stones and stuff like you hit, and it will never happen to you again, we farmed the same farms since the 60´s and it never happened to us after we started doing that as a tip from another farmer

Great idea an isolated object in the middle of the field when I was learning to glide when approaching to land we were advised not to aim at the lorry towing the winch cable back up the airfield however being human even on a completely empty airfield the lone Lori always ended up as the target to which you aimed for without even thinking about it it takes a lot to concentrate not to aim your glider at the tow truck. The same will probably apply to loan electric fence poles stuck in the middle of the hayfield

Yay for dad being a dirty stop out👏👏🤣🤣 I love how the field with the pond looks, stay safe look forward to the next video x

6:05 I hear “I need to mow now” 😂

for the manhole covers you should put a marker pole above it, to help you see where the manhole covers are in the field

Your suggestion are good but I can see a problem. While I’ve never mowed a hay/Silage, I have reaped/harvested (peas, barley, wheat, etc.) grains and trying to jocks around poles and fences off area are a pain. What I would suggest is a brightly colored pole in line with the drains at either end of the field. That way they would remember to set the Linkage higher for that row. It would keep poles out of the middle of the field so they could keep a good rhythm. That’s the way we did things out in Washington state, US. I’m not sure if their tractors can raise and lower the cutting blades while in motion like ours can. Compared to the tractors/harvesters they use here on our farms yours are smaller. He admits to theirs being a small farm. Out in the Palouse Empire of Washington our smaller farms are about 2000 to 3000 acres, I’m not sure what is common in your area of the world.

Really great video for a layman . Watch out for the manholes . Wow didn't think it was bad .so sorry you really taught the lad . You and your wife are so cute . She is a good women .so sweet to bring your lunch and drive the tractor . I am envious . Beautiful day . Thanks for showing us even the bad parts . And teaching other farmers by your mistakes . Good show .

Tom your not a idiot, never ever put yourself down, your only human, and humans make mistakes, there are enough people in the world who can and often put us down, so admitting you made a mistake, learning from it, and getting it fixed is the best thing in life a person can do, just my 2p worth.

Why don’t you have flags marking the manholes? Easy fix

Yeah, here in snow country warning flags pop up every fall so plows do not plow into things like curbs and fire hydrants. Should be an easy fix to add some flags to the man hole covers.

You and Joanna (Chef’s kiss). Brilliant. Love the longer videos Tom. Every Tuesday, Friday, and occasionally the Sunday, I’m here waiting. Keep it up!!! Please!! Thank you!

My goodness that's a pile of grass! And well done Mr Ginger, out 'till 4! I'm only 47 and could hardly manage staying out 'till 1. And Tom, don't be too hard on yourself. Nobody was hurt, and it can be fixed. Take care!

Love your nephew. He’s learning some good life lessons 😊

Great video as always Tom and ginger warrior, an educational one for us all to experience and get your understanding of being angry and frustrated we all would be especially on a Sunday 4pm, but anyways love a great pembertons silage video 👍🏻🚜🙂

I love mowing time it just takes me back to when I was a kid on our farm. You can even smell the grass.👍👍😉😉

Love to see drone views of the mower (or any of your machines) working. Your grass looks great, so hope you continue to get decent weather!

It takes a big man in admit a mistake and show it to the world. The man that never made a mistake never made anything.

Thanks for sharing this. Love watching you and the Ginger Warrior in the tractors burning some diesel. AND, best of all, you are willing to use yourself as an example of paying attention and not just nodding along. The groundskeepers at the school I worked at used to walk the fields before mowing and would put in little hazard flags by drains etc. I know this rare for you, but others might want to think about something like that. Great to see as always.

Don’t give yourself such a hard time Tom, you got there in the end. Smashed it 😎😎

I often wonder how you have time to keep a thought in your head, you are so great with your farm! Do not beat yourself up it serves no purpose...... I follow everyday, great channel!

Awesome video, glad to see your wife driving the tractor! 5 star 🌟 🤩 video

good to see the wife cutting the grass all the best to you all keep up the good work ps love all the vids

I really liked your video and you smashed the mowing! Don't be too hard on yourself. You're very good at having a back-up when you need to keep moving! I loved seeing you and Joanna working together, too. I hope it didn't rain!

So many people are “Monday morning quarterbacking” in their comments. We all make mistakes every day, and I appreciate Tom’s transparency in sharing his with us. 💪🏻

It happens Tom don't beat yourself up for it. What I loved most about this video was hearing that the mighty ginge was still party at 4am what a legend!

Hey Tom. I reckon you should bring Euan along more often as he has the perfect timing of a "straight man" for a comedy duo and has obviously had seriously in depth training in how to deliver lines with heavy sarcasm and irony (probably due to growing up on a working farm with "working words" like the Ginger Warrior proved he could utter) 😎😂. Also you could try and persuade Joanna to get in front of the camera a little more often (maybe to show you up a little 😁...). Apart from seeing her delight at doing well, it is great to see her confidence doing "farming things" improve over time... By the way you are lucky you are only due some heavy rain on the cut grass. We had a 15 acre paddock (many years ago) that was cut, then heavily rained apon. tedded once, rained on again and then overnight was blown off the paddock up against the eastern fence before it could be (small) baled. We didn't get a good result from that crop but there was a lot more uncut grass on other paddocks.

You are too hard on yourself, Tom. You always do your best and sometimes mistakes happen. How were you supposed to see the manhole amongst all that tall grass? You're not stupid, you're not a buffoon, you're not a weirdo for getting excited about farm stuff and you're not ugly! Be gentle with yourself, you're doing 110% Much love from Nova Scotia!

Hello 👋 dear how are you doing?

Tom is the person ever upsets against others because such a positive gratitude person ever seen 🙏. The nature of the UK cultures kindness society ❤️

at the end you saved it, so all is good. whish the best. and indeed a bit of moisture is never bad, keeps the worms alive ...

In the snow country we put thin orange stick markers at curbs and other buried hard items so snow plows do not hit them, they stick 3 or 4 feet up. Given your grass is awesomely high maybe they will work for your manholes.

I feel your pain! I did the same last year with our Krone easycut, found a cast iron manhole. I was mad at myself for ages.

That is a lot of grass!!! I can't wait to see how much it ends up being in the clamp! Don't be too hard on yourself! We're learning with you! Your dad looked just like Captain Kangaroo in this video! Great to see Jo! Be careful, she'll take over! 🥰

1.love this vid 2. The older peeps can party like no one else 3. Love looking at fresh mowed grass just wish I could smell it

I know probably got a crap ton of suggestions about the man hole covers. But, being from Wisconsin Snow stakes are common place here. Snow stakes are cheap place maker for things like man hole covers.

“You can’t be half asleep in this field… you will hear a bang”… Seconds later *bang* “shit” 😂 Famous last words Tom

Whoops-a-daisy! Nobody is perfect and it's nice to see someone put their own mistake out there for others to learn from. Great mowing content!

To keep from running over those again install a 6 foot tall orange flexible shafted flag. Like a golf hole marker or back in the 1980's we had huge marker flags we put on our bikes.

Don’t worry about it Tom it can happen to anyone. The mower can be mended & nobody’s injured.

“Don’t be an idiot” Wise words 😂

S#☆t happens Tom, You learn from it and get on with what ever it is your doing. No one got hurt. The only thing hurt is your pride. If that's all you get through life then your a very fortunate young man. Crack on with getting things done. Enjoy life.....

Great video Tom watch the man holes in the field put flags where they are at great drone footage👍👍👍🦌

So good to see Joanna driving a tractor, she will be getting her own and joining you next year chopping LOL.

You might invest in some white poles to mark things you don't want to hit in your fields. Farmers in the States mark drain tile obstructions with tall poles. Just a thought. It might take some of the stress and guess work out of mowing.

You just gave a good demonstration what not to do,thats classic lol

My favorite kind of video! Mowing seen from the drone. Might we perhaps be seeing tedding tomorrow?? Great job Tom and Ging!!!

Good job Tom we all make mistakes the John deer looks well round your place, nice to see Joanna again 👍👍

Joanna looks really healthy. 💪🏻 lovely couple. Got the book. Thanks for another awesome video 👍🏻

It happens, I remember a customer that took delivery of his new combine and on the first outing he wrapped the auger around a pylon. Try staking flags up on the manholes.

Hello 👋 dear how are you doing?

Tom my uncle does the same opens up with a Kuhn trailer mower then does the up and downs with front and side claas discos works out great saves a lot of time with the corners

A very good Wednesday morning and you all from Wellington Somerset

Bash a fence post in to mark the manhole or lower the manhole cover so it's flush with ground level and the mower will pass over the top.

We in michigan don't do our 2nd 3rd 4th cuts till after it goes to seed. Helps when we rake it all over to reseed it.

These things happen Tom, don’t beat yourself up too much, nothing that can’t be fixed 👍🏻👌🏻

Wish I remained that calm when I balls up, I unfortunately F&blind at myself gets me nowhere like, but fair play to you, keep up the good work and the videos I enjoy watching, I twiddle spanners for living and wonder if did pick the wrong career at times

What a great episode ty Tom. 😎👍

Now we're farming! That's my line 😂

Tom, life and jobs don't always go to plan, even for the best of people, your dad is a marvelous man for his age, his get up and go attitude is scarce in society, to do an all night shift up to 6am, a couple of hours rest and then go back out again and carry on, that what he is used to, he can't retire, it's not in his blood, hard working man, you are the same as your dad, hard grafter,, great to see you letting your partner learn the tractor and mowing operations, it would not have happened 20 or 30 years ago, even less, it's great to see not like years ago, michael IRELAND [EIRE]

That’s so satisfying watching the cut!

Fab drone shots Tom. We all do daft things, don’t beat yourself up! That’s farming 👍

Don’t beat yourself up Tom, as the saying goes, “SH1T happens”! The damage will be fixed, problem solved. 👌😎

Blows my mind seeing all the ppl commenting “you should mark those”, no, really? Geez, You ppl have a strong grasp on the obvious.

Cracking video as always Tom. In farming mistakes are made. As long as nothing that’s the main thing

You all worked damn hard there and making the video, well done it was another good one, fingers crossed with the weather 🤞🤞👍

I just love when your wife is in your videos. Your teaching her how to do little jobs to feel included. Please let her know how great it is to see her stepping up to help. Thank you so much God bless.

I love me a sneaky Tom Pemeberton hint for upcoming stuff 12:15 ;)

Don’t beat ya sen up Tom about the mower. We all have messed up on such occasions and no one is perfect. Iv hit a man hole cover before and cost me £thousands but best thing is to learn from mistakes and I did by making the cover obvious with cones on top so easy to see. Good vid and looking forward to the chopping one 😁

Don't be too hard on yourself good on you for not editing it out these things happen we all make mistakes 💯

I moved to the suburbs years ago. I still use the orange stakes to mark the edges of the driveway & sidewalks in the winter.

24:45 😂🤣🤣 Ewin is comedy gold!

Tom, this was a great video. It's okay to show the imperfections of life. You overcame the issue and got the job done. Your nephew though -- "at least you've got a good demonstration for the video" -- HAHAHAHAHA!!! That was awesome.

Happens to the best of us weve all been there, An idea for future is put some stakes in round the man holes so there easier to spot :D

Well Tom Lad that's what happens when you get carried away with the banter. Just put some markers in the field where the manhole are, I'm sure you can com up with something. Great video though shows your only human, like the rest of us. Always nice to see you and the ginger guy working together.

gotta love it i was mowing in my vacance my dad says watch out for them poles theres holes and i was lucky i went right through there just 3 knifes bad

your girlfreind is such a legend dude she is driving for the first time and she is smashing it

Hi I use to mow grass for contractors .we use to put marker sticks where there was obstacles like man holes takes the guess work out of the job 👍

I’m amazed everytime how sharp you make those fields
