Lesson learned

I was felling some sweet chestnut today, and put my saw out of the way whilst I loaded the trailer with our 6T excavator. Loaded most of the trunks and decided to get one more forgetting where i had left my saw. To my horror i looked down to see the bar of my MS390 sticking out from under the steel track of the digger. I reversed off and was amazed to find the saw had sunk into some soft soil and I retrieved it with onlt 3 cracks in the plastic casing.

 

It fired up and used it all afternoon. Won't be doing that again!

I left my phone on the top of the combine wheel... but obviously by the time I realised it was flattened.

And I had new lenses fitted in my raybans this summer and put them on the mudguard of the tractor while unloading a bale trailer a week later... got two hundred yards up the field and remembered... spent AGES looking for them, found them on the top step, I'd reversed under a low branch which slid them all the way over & they dropped off the front... couldn't believe my luck!
