Yep, quite agree - just amused me that the one industry that arguably has been protected most by membership of the EU can’t see it As ever there will be winners and losers I’m just not sure the losers know its them yet

Haha - I was literally just sitting around the table stating my opinion regarding the resemblance that farmers voting for brexit were of turkeys sticking their hands in the air around November time - especially beef farmers

I believe you work in the same industry as me - isn’t this exactly the sort of terms that businesses are sold on? Maybe not 5x though

What on earth is this starting before 3am all about? I seem to remember your wife helped you without being paid? Now, I have no idea about the way dairy workers are rewarded for their efforts ...... but good god I hope you have a very high salary

Maybe Found today very sad - I have some very good friends whose dad was killed in a tragic accident last year. Apparently their family had rented and farmed the same place for over 100 year he was the 4 generation and a greater man you could not meet. Everyone around Totnes will know who I...

I was being paid about that 15ish years ago (the last time I milked a cow) and I wouldn't have said I was Mr Topnotch Cowman - I should have a chat and see if there is anything more/better they would like you to be doing? and also have a look around and see what else you can find and what it...
