In short, no but the idea of rain is quite nice now. I walked the farm this morning and we grew less than zero this week. It is so dry down here now that every field bar one had less grass that last week even though they had not been grazed.

The trouble is though some of West Scotland it can rain and just never stop.Not just having to house cows all the time,the fields get too wet to take silage off,and put slurry back on.You can get into a nightmare with no feed/silage and overflowing slurry stores.

Cheap needles and syringes by Shotts- no need to go to the vets...folk just leave them lying around!
Depending quite how close it is to the edge of town I don’t imagine that’s the kind of area you could insure a straw stack.
Ah yeah, local with good road links to.....well nobody
Nah, its on the edge of nowhere. The moddle would be a darn sight closer to nowhere

It's not that bad! Plenty rain up here, when you got there you'd never want to leave! No need for a road! [emoji16]

Isn’t there a creamery some where near
Would you be similar climate to stranrae?

Probably much the same. Although not much experience of stranraer, maybe a bit more wind here, only guessing, not many hedges or field trees here but more down stranraer, although Ballygreggan will be more sheltered than some.
No some of Stranraer will be the best grass growing region in Scotland.

Stranraer is very variable , it might be the best growing region in scotland but not a lot suited to early grazing .
Campbeltown is also some of the best grass growing part of Scotland, same Gulf Stream.
It is well out of the way, but if the creamery sale goes ahead things could be good down there. If not then a lot of farms in that area will get very cheap very quickly
