usually manage two dinners on a sunday during the winter, we have dinner here fairly early, 12pm ish, so few hours yard jobs in the morn, followed by dinner, maybe go back out in the yard till 3/4ish. Half hour indoors catching up with whats going on on here, then wander up town for a pint and maybe end up in local wethersppons for steak and chips about 7pm. Wander back home, see what replys i have on the various dating sites im on, look in on here and rant about either direct drilling, gps, valtras, fords or anything modern in general, depending on what mood im in

While Grandma was alive we never worked Sundays except for feeding and bedding. Not religious, just reckoned we needed to stop and recharge, ( grew a lot of veg then).
Here's the rub.
WE NEVER LOST A PENNY BY NOT HARVESTING SUNDAY.
Always got it , even here in the wet north west
Next doors favourite saying was
"If you've not made your money by Saturday dinnertime, you'll not make it on Sunday"
He had a point.

I need the vat to pay the concrete man tomorrow night, if I was hard up I would send some tattys bills out I still have some to go out from 2012 when they were worth something.With two years vat to come back, and csf grant , no wonder yo can afford posh wellies

I've heard that twice now this week.
Can I change from ' kneedeep' to 'F.O.S'
Would be more apt.

Rember what a local guy that went chapel every Sunday said about his neighbour's " That over a years work that they should be a month and a half in front of him with working on Sundays but were normally that behind him"

Farm local to me DO NOT do Sunday's, the older generation are devout Methodists, the younger ones (I went to school with one of them) arnt really that heavily into the chapel thing but stick with the Sunday's off to keep everyone happy, fair play, everything gets done (even in a catchy summer)
Some biggish outfits have carrots and spuds there and they know the score-if they do owt on a Sunday they'll not be back there next year

Should have had the day off, but spent the day finishing a pen for Mrs Fred's pet sheep, and stupidly managed to stick a barb from the old wire I was removing in the soft bit of my hand while my gloves were off. I Dettolled it but I just know it's gonna sting tomorrow Then tonight it was farm cinema night and The Bridge at Remagen .
