Someone is cutting the field of silage out the back and it sounds as if one of the bearings in the mower is dying as it is protesting loudly.

The tractor driver must have no mechanical sympathy as he'll end up damaging other parts as well if he keeps going.

Only the one!
A disc mower has two for each cutting head, two to six on the horizontal shaft. Then at least one on every over other axle on the machine.
Two dozen bearings, with a few different sizes, isn't uncommon.

I knew that this would be a day of phrases like "Let's go around and introduce ourselves" and "Now we're going to have a group activity", and behold, it was.

I also surmised that I probably wasn't going to learn anything useful, and behold, I didn't.

How can you play busses when chairs are set out like that ?

We have clear blue skies
Garden birds have been fed
No snails on the bird table today so far
