| 0:04.8 | You're listening to Monday's episode of The Archers from BBC Radio 4. Okay, so we need to get the cover crops planted ASAP, |
| 0:31.7 | and it's either going to have to be me who does the drilling, or we hire someone in. |
| 0:35.8 | Boy, you can't do it if you're supposed to be at Bridge Farm. Well, I could probably do some of it. And we could hire in for the rest. Have you booked the maze harvester in for a service yet? No, no. I was actually thinking we might skip it. Skip it? Well, just for this year. That seems a bit risky. I'm just looking at ways to cut costs, Adam. Yeah, but we don't want to start cutting corners, do we? No, we don't want to go bankrupt either. |
| 0:37.5 | A story. That seems a bit risky. I'm just looking at ways to cut costs, Adam. Yeah, but we don't want to start cutting corners, do we? No, we don't want to go bankrupt either.

| 1:35.1 | then it's going to cost us a fortune to fix. I don't think it will break down, though. It's in great, |
