I do yes. I knew David all my life, he had some smashing cattle too.

I’ve just recently moved but my previous yard was right next door to David’s Farm.

We have been spreading at Wroxall for thirty years I should think and I went to college with Rob. They certainly breed some great cattle there, very good farmers.

Super, I bumped into Clare the other day who still has her cattle there!

you may know the Hicks Family then with the Blondes then ?

Clare is a lovely gal, really smashing and good fun, great with her cattle too. I don’t see much of her but used to get on well with her at college. Last time we spoke was David Bells funeral. I think she lives up north now?

I know a couple of Hicks families. If it’s the family I’m thinking of then yes, I’ve known them all my life, they are neighbours of my brother and used to run a HGV garage nearby where we had our lorries serviced.

Small world!!

Greenbeast · Oct 11, 2018

Got a digger man onsite doing some bits and bobs, he's about to change buckets to start digging a trench for me and wanders over asking for a grinder and an 8mm bolt (about 70-100mm long), you can guess what i find when i follow him back to his machine with the bits

Hmm i think one of these animals is in the wrong place....
