So long story short, I'm just out from 4 wet days in a lower river valley catchment with water running out the bottom of my shorts. And river crossings were..... well, an exercise in testing experience
Cant win this summer

I know the feeling: Halfway across and you say to yourself..." I really can't afford to fuck this up"

Half the fun of being in the hills is the vistas, so can be frustrating looking at the inside of a cloud for 4 days

Was also holing a lot of bales, so took his stander upperer off and that stopped. But means I have had to do an awful lot more work picking the buggers up...especially the soft ones

especially the soft ones - thats a clue - if they are soft could be why the wrap is peeling of - but does not sound at all like good consistent baling
