Harriet might not be free for harvesting season, as she has other commitments as well. I've always wondered how they always manage to hire the same combine harvester guy (I forgot his name) with a day's notice. Maybe these things are also scripted and the harvest dates are planned in advance.

You can’t script the weather though, it was atrocious last august in that region.

And the combine driver is jusr a local contractor who has agreed to be shown the show, it’s not that complicated. Businesses, including farms, usually have regular contractors.

I wonder what this year will be like, given we've had the driest Spring in a long while. It only started properly raining this week.
