Doubling up.

Off to Andrew’s farm to top us up on barley straw. Such a cold and dry Spring has meant that the animals are still on supplementary feeding, and we have to get through to October before new, this years, straw becomes available. This little beast doubles up the maximum per trip to fifty bales.

Add to that the container maximum capacity of around fifty, we could have nearly a year’s supply.

We could also store fifty on here. And it could double up as a removal van, well, jolly nearly but at 432 cu feet or so, we could let it as an air bnb! It’s an absolute joy to handle when full, and pretty easy to reverse, and it makes Andrew double+up with laughter when I get into a muddle! A real double bonus!
