Judith Walker on Hay

I think until dad got a baler. They’d come … when I was born they wouldn’t have baled it, they used to have ricks in the yard at the back and he used to thatch them, because that’s what dad was doing when I was born, thatching a rick, so he couldn’t move until he’d finished doing that (laughs) and then we got to bales and we used to have a wagon and used to load it up so high and we’d be able to … we were allowed to climb up and ride on the wagon you see. Wouldn’t now, but it was tied down. Yes and everyone used to come and help.
