Threshing time

[fireman 11,457]

Went out to a farm where things are done the old way,we were there for the ratting which gets really going when the stack gets to the end.We had 4 plummers with us and the old farm dogs a 5 stone felly type thing and a old lab sort of thing,we ended up with just over a hundred rats and we were finished by dinner time.We were at this farm a month ago but the tractor that was running the thresher broke down,we had 28 rats that time and a couple of the chaps that were there last time came this time just to see the dogs work.

Most of the rats were caught when the bails the stack was stacked on were rolled over and only 3 rats were seen to make it to safety,just hope the weather and tractor holds out as he has another 2-3 stacks to do soon.
