Latch on Stable Gatešt. ogledov:660This Came electronic latch was installed by Automation Gates in early 2005. The stable gate is exposed to direct wind, and the installers indicated that the wind on the gate was breaking the arm that connected the gate with the motor. At the same time, the motor was replaced with a different --- and presumably better --- motor. The latch meant that when the gate closed it would be supported, against the wind, on both ends. But the latch didn't always engage --- usually because of the wind.

Stable Gate at Lucies Farmšt. ogledov:659Photographed from the stable yard, looking down our track (with Gregorz manually latching the gate). The motor that should open and close the gate is on the right in this photograph. As is shown, the gate is exposed to the elements, and wind coming down the track and from the neighbour's field hits the gate staight on.

Close-Up of Damage to Truckmanšt. ogledov:655The right rear side of the Truckman, showing the damage to the vehicle and tyre. I'm told that the "springs" are damaged --- I didn't even know cars had "springs." This was photographed on the transporter, just as the Truckman was beginning its last journey . . .

Aberdeen Angus Bull -- "Ballet"št. ogledov:654Quite an experience having a huge black bull stare at you. But he's just a pussycat, I hope.

The Truckman on Crookbarrow Roadšt. ogledov:646We had to abandon the Truckman here on the Friday night of the great rainstorm of 2007. We then had all sorts of problems with MMA, the insurance company that we pay for rescue/recovery services. I spent an hour in the Truckman, in the pouring rain, waiting for MMA to answer their 24/7 help line. They never did.

The Truckman With "Crime Scene" Tapešt. ogledov:644On Crookbarrow Road. The Truckman looks like something from a weird installment of CSI.

Merlin the Guernsey Bullšt. ogledov:642It's a bit silly, but we have one Guernsey house cow (Carole) and one Guernsey bull (Merlin). They are very lovey-dovey, and spend a tremendous amount of each day grooming each other. In this photo Merlin looks a bit like a Roman devil-god. I think it's his short, stubby horns.

Big Doing His Rock Star Impressionšt. ogledov:641Fashionable white eye make-up. (Actually paint from doing the inside of the stables.)

My arrival at Lucies Farmšt. ogledov:638Belinda arriving at Lucies Farm to begin her role as our house cow. She's milked by hand twice each day, and her full-fat fresh Guernsey milk is used in scrambled eggs --- the breakfast of most of our doggie guests.

Doorbars HQ in Downtown Worcesteršt. ogledov:631Our Czech farm hands assisted Richard Pugh by painting the exterior of the Doorbars building --- green. I think it looks great. October 28 2006, a typical dreary day in sunny Worcestershire.
