Agriculture

I have been helping my brother on his farm recently. We have:

  • Smashed down an old wall with the use of a sledgehammer, bringing down a massive old beam and some rafters
  • Dug through rubble, reclaimed shaped stones and piled them in a barn
  • Chopped down some trees with the use of a chainsaw
  • Piled the trees onto a bonfire and threw buckets of diesel on it.

As a result, I have:

  • Improved reaction time for leaping out of the way of collapsing buildings
  • Realised working on computers for a period of years leaves you with pathetic weak flimsy wrists
  • Fallen in love with the arboreal nemesis
  • Reproduced a mushroom cloud similar to that of Hiroshima, but a little smaller.
Finally, I have sat on my brother's tractor, but have yet to drive it. That is an adventure for another day.
