I don't think so at all, seem to be getting on very well. They seem to be a good team and hard working lot. Why when young people are trying to get get going do people always say that have bitten off more than they chew!

I really do enjoy this program, I liked the fire man having a go at shearing and the ewe running out the gate with half a fleece ( we have all been there), he really does seem to love her and has a can do attitude, but finds it frustrating that he can do everything.

Surely that’s more than they are worth ? Or far more than they are likely to earn you from calves etc ?

That was the trap many people fell into here during our 3 years or more of severe drought. Rather than selling their animals off when they ran out of feed ( & no likelihood of growing any more in the foreseeable future ), they just kept buying feed - often spending more than the livestock was worth & with no hope of ever earning that money back from them .
The J word has alot to do with it.
What Jesus, what’s he got to do with the job!

He must really really love her. I know it's mostly down to the editing but some weeks she seems to be having a laugh at his expense every time she opens her mouth!

The chap in question said he always wanted some cows, so this little herd of highlands was kind of a hobby rather than a business. I think they hoped that they would “pay” at least but of course they didn’t. In the previous years, they could fund the highlands from their tourism but Covid killed that
lThe bull dying just brought the issue to a head.
I didn’t see why he maybe didn’t keep three favourites and use a neighbours bull or something
