Washed-out harvest

I've seen lots of depressing pictures over the past week or so of farmers hit hard by the floods. This one has stuck in my mind. It shows Richard Tutton at Trewern in Wales.

The shot below shows an almost totally submerged baler. And anyone who knows how high balers are will realise how deep that water is!

Hi

I'm just wondering if that is the same Richard (Rick) Tutton I worked with in the Western Australian Dept. of Agriculture in the late 1960s. He was Welsh and went home in the early 1970s to work the family farm in Wales.

If it is I'd very much like to renew contact with him if you have an address/ email or phone number.

Cheers
