Come on chaps, getting quiet in this thread!

Bit of fuel for the fire:
"You know, comrades," says Stalin, "that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this — who will count the votes, and how."

Im sure some of you lot on here don't have large businesses to run or have plenty of staff to do the work if you do:mad: I have just fudgeing got in after doing 12 hours straight:mad: and my animals will always come first, and no I couldn't get to the meeting:( even thou I tried to and wanted to be there, complete nonsense to have it at 11 am in the morning on a Friday on one of the largest market days in the SW.

Very few people will go at that time of the day hence why the place was empty!!....

I will be attending at least one of the local AHDB meetings and will try and get to both,

How many of you on here go to YOUR local county AGM and how many of YOU are going to go to the AHDB meetings??......................

I made time to see Guy Smith at his request which is more than most of you on here will do yet many of you will slag me off just because i couldn't get to another meeting!!

And I made time to see the SW regional chap for a meeting at his request which went on for 3 and half hours and which was very usefull and time well spent, thou of course most of you that are now slagging me off cant be bothered to do this either:whistle:

Some of you lot really take the pee and need to get your own house in order and do your bit and not expect everyone else to do it for you.............

Chill man :cool:

Bull sh!t as I have done a hell of a lot the last few weeks with the NFU, quite a lot of it has not been reported on here!

I will be at the AHDB meeting (s) will you be??

Yes, I have been through the complicated and protracted online process to book a place at an AHDB meeting. I thought it might be a bit of sport, more entertaining than coming on here :ROFLMAO:
What I am really looking forward to seeing is you take on Sir Peter in public. Be careful, it might not be run to Queensbury rules, a wounded animal can fight dirty .......
