Looks smartDon't worry I've only got two walls to. If we put your clamp and mine together we'd almost have a complete one.

I wish I had your landlord!
Was that the best option?I'm still paying eventually, just a bit slower this way.
And they would cut every corner possible, give the job to the lowest quote and make a hash of it. just managed to convince them to cough up for a new pipe to take the roof water on a shed they built to replace a steadying we lost to development. Shed has 4” down pipes, piped into a 3” flexicoil that also picks up the field drains as shed dug into bank. The 3”is full of silt in several places as its Levels are all wrong Landlord made out they where doing me a favour in this instance as drain repairs not their responsibilityYes, my landlord will do it but want a 10% return on their investment.......

You pay, 10 year loan , tenants improvements V landlord putting it on rent?
From the milk & dairy regs.
Regulation 2597/97 defines drinking milk and sets out the permissible fat content ranges for the following types of milk:
- Whole milk: the minimum fat content is 3.5 %
- Semi-skimmed milk: the fat content must be at least 1.5% but not more than 1.8%;
- Skimmed milk: the fat content must be no more than 0.5% (previously 0.3%).
We have a milkotest machine, got it s/h 15 years ago.Is there anyway to measure fat content at farm level with out a really expensive piece of equipment?
Surely Qmms would be a cheaper option or do you need an instant resultIs there anyway to measure fat content at farm level with out a really expensive piece of equipment?
I use NML so not difficult to get a result. I've got some one wanting to make cheese and they are quite specific about fat content so will mean a bit of 'blending', thought I'd ask the question.Surely Qmms would be a cheaper option or do you need an instant result
This is Jersey milk we're talking, 1 inch of cream = low fat!!Put it in a jug and let it settle, 1 inch of cream= high fat, half inch of cream = low fat
* Do your own calibration not sure how accurate my estimation was
I hope your buyer realises that Jersey milk is quite difficult to use in cheesemaking due to the size of the fat globules. Some have mastered it, such as Sharpham and Jamie Montgomery.This is Jersey milk we're talking, 1 inch of cream = low fat!!
In calf or just going to the bull?
@Beef farmer I've changed my mind, rain would be very nice
Warmth would also be welcome that's for sure, currently having to wear 2 shirts, 2 jumpers and a boiler suit for morning milking!Just been speaking to a near neighbour of yours who was getting agitated about the dryness. But the warmth from the complaining about it was most welcome he said!
