Pykies or gypoes…. A farmer would take the fencer too

Which means the gypo/pikie is smarter.

If you take the fencer, the owner may not replace it - they might just put up proper fencing...

But if you steal just the battery you can always come back again and again... because they'll probably more than likely just replace the battery

A9 horrid tonight “North of Perth”. Surely not just everyone trying to buy a cheap hay feeder for sheep.

Hay feeders look cheap, think it was £25 and £35 each. List is all up on web site. Loads of unsold items. Gives price for an instant buy.
If that delay is Dunkeld, the lights were supposed to be off by early afternoon.

They were last week, when I went through this morning they had all the tarmac still to put down.

Apparently an hour added for southbound. I’ll leave the hay feeder for the gekko

Been over to Barton, 6 sheep are out. That’s odd as they’ve been there for weeks and been no trouble. SOME pansy HAS NICKED THE barsteward BATTERIES!!!! Anyone know the best place to get those secure fence boxes that you can liven up?

A few years ago I put an electric fence up our newly laid hedge by the road. Battery was nicked. Two years later someone don’t know who dropped it back at another road gate same exact battery flat as sh!t.

Maybe they wanted a refund.

Apparently qms do fight these kind of things. So I was told they go into schools and try and change minds.

f**king joke, this pr*ck gets prime time slot, we get promotions in schools and publications aimed at farmers

I wouldn't worry no one so far has taken him seriously.
He obviously doesn't know the difference between UK beef
production and intensive chicken production .
Perhaps he should tell the public which of these in the UK has the
biggest effect on the rainforests through imported Soya usage grown
on ex rainforests.

Hopefully we keep following the EU lead...feels like a bit of common sense at last and a small victory - maybe a bit of realisation behind the scenes where food comes from.

'Ciao' cows: Cattle excluded from EU's industrial emissions cut plan

Cattle farms have been excluded from new rules to cut harmful industrial emissions in a deal by the European Parliament and the EU Council that waters down the Commission’s environmental ambitions.

For Sale.

Male Child. Just turned 1. Very cute, very smiley. Very noiseyOpen to offers exceeding 2 yorkie bars.

so far tonight he’s eaten 1/3 of my tea, drank 1/2 my brew, stole my cornetto and ate 90% of it before giving me a bit of soggy cone back to finish. I want a drink but be damned to opening one while he’s still up!! It’s a bloody good job I think they’re both brilliant and hilarious.
