Okay then so here is my second attempt at Youtube :think: and moving pictures are lets just say a little bit more of a challenge.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJv2QaQ5Et4

Sadly it was a windy day and thats put paid to a lot of my movies as all you can hear is the horrible racket the wind makes as it blows down yer camcorder mic :x

There were some half decent results though and I haven't made my mind up if I will post the others or not?
Another daft problem encountered with moving pics is other folk talking and whilst I was round the back of this site there is a public path where a bloke happened to be walking his dog, he said "good morning" to which I replied the same and then thought oh no thats scrapped that clip, anyway ignore the bumbling bafoon who mumbles something like "I could really do with the sun behind me" at the end of the posted clip thats me :doh:
Yes and I haven't mastered video editing yet I did try but failed earlier on, note to self: "must try harder" :) , have a look and see what you think?

:lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks Steve and Ian.

When I was there last time the lads there said they would be laying the top soil today so what the heck I have a few days I must use up or lose so I went there today and got a few decent shots and footage of the machines on the one heap, so I will post them as and when they are re-sized and post a couple more clips on the Youtube too.

The light conditions were not ideal for photography today but here are a few of the pictures that I took, I will post more as and when they are re-sized and lightened or darkened as required.
I haven't even had time to look at the footage I took yet but all will be posted in due time.

Those egg beaters really knock the topsoil down well so its nice to re-spread. I bet the finished job is looking good! :thumbup:

Nice post Jeremy :bow:

If I knew how to post a thankyou I would mate! :thumbup:

Cheers Clive :thumbup: I've just uploaded another video to Youtube, the wrong one too :x nevermind the videos have come out great so I will be posting more but it takes me nearly an hour or so to upload each one so it will take a while for me to post the odd three or four out of em all.
Yes Clive the lads on the scrapers soon reduced the first spoil heap to at least half its size, they are quite an amazing piece of kit to see in action!
In the mean time here's a few more pictures of them in action from earlier today;
