The Farmers Podcast

We take a walk down Memory Lane with Noels Dad. Really we didn't even scratch the surface of what he has done up until this point in his life. If we could afford the cloud storage space to delve deeper, we would.
We hope you enjoy our chat with (The)Don.

Meet Brian Parker retired Owen farmer as we travel back in time to small schools and open cab tractors and a life on land. Hope this triggers memories for future profiles

I had a chat with Joyce back in Oct 2021 she was well into her nineties it was a pleasure to have a yarn with her. From starting her teaching career at Woods primary school traveling the 12 miles from Balaklava on an a BSA auto cycle and teaching my father Brian Parker along with a few other local notables , with about a 12 students in the scrub, to marrying local Salter Springs farmer Des Ross. Resuming her teaching career later on, and even teaching me . Her father served in the camel core in WW1 so we are going way back in time with this one. A lovely lady who sadly passed away last month. Vale. I hope you enjoy this bit of time travel! Cheers Parks
