Not a real good start!!!!

Well it has been a while since my last post mainly because we have had further rain events that have delayed harvest once again. It look's like we are moving into a more El nino weather pattern (man I hope so) the crop is good the price is good all we need to do is get the crop harvested, surely we can catch a break ? Anyway whilst the ground has been so saturated I with my son Riley have rebuilt the transaxle in my offroad race car, and it is now a go'er,it is powered by a twin turbo Subaru with 205kw, I had forgotten how much of an adrenalin rush this thing is. Hopefully we will be starting harvest again late this week so we can get the crop off in a reasonable time frame so as we can have some reasonable ratoon cane for next year.
