Hi folks,
I've been a bit quiet over the last few days. Just spent them at home with my folks sorting and bagging potatoes / spuds ( ) for local suppliers. Makes a nice change than staring at a laptop all day then

Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself Frank. It's lovely to get your hands dirty now and again isn't it? Nice to have you back again though.

Well actually I wasn't outside, the spuds have already been picked and put into large wooden boxes. We run them through a machine and sort and pick out rotten ones as they go up a conveyor belt. Then they end up dropping into bags at the end. A lot of it is helped by machinery but you still do get your hands dirty
