Welcome to the Farmring!

Well, firstly, apologies. I am full of fail (hello, Brench!) cos the camera is in Paris, about 400 kms from the Farmring.

There is some good news, however. My idea of dragging a big log round the 'ring was sucky. The log wouldn't stay behind the tractor. After searching around the farm, though, an old gate was found that did a damn good job. Once the overall finish was smoothed, a bit of handwork with a broom and a rake to clear the excess vegetation, and the 'ring is about finished. The jumps and banked turns need revisiting by hand, as all of this dragging stuff around meant that things didn't stay the shape I wanted (you can get airborne over a couple of the jumps, but to do so you have to be so damn fast that the next turn'll wipe you out anyway : / )
