I think there was a pollution visit paid for by the Welsh Assembly years ago, the advisor who came here said he visited the farm when he was sorting out drainage grants (in the 70's I guess), and he remembered the farm as being a large farm, I told him it is 150 Acres, so now a small farm (I remember the sheep scanner saying he thought you needed 300 acres in a farm like this for a living)
Mean while another 180 acre joining a 700acre block jointing another 700 acre block joining another 700 acre block and a gap of few field basically joining keilder is getting planted this autum ...... two family’s out my comunift last couple years , and a lot of farmers in 60’s on massive rented farms all tipped to be planted coming years
I remember reading years ago too, that in Scotland there has been a lot of planting between the open hill and lowland fields, so cutting to two off from each other, making the farms very difficult to farm
Exactly
I think the welsh got militant and violent when they tried the clearances, as the french did.
There was the Rebecca Rioters (or Merched Beca) who dressed up in women's clothes and destroyed the toll booths on the toll roads (which were used to fetch lime for the fields) here in this area. Dressed up as women so they would not be recognised.I think the welsh got militant and violent when they tried the clearances, as the french did.
Then they liked to come home to a real fire much more recently
We have Dyson land neighbouring us, I don’t know how many they employ, but I can assure you it is more than 40

Isn’t it strange that the best PR farming has probably got in the last few years is from Jezza!! Who’d have thought it? His gung ho approach and then realisation that it ain’t as easy as it looks is endearing to the masses that don’t or didn’t understand farming. I really didn’t think his series would help UK Ag’ but it seems like it is on the fringes!! Wonder how many PR agents are figuring out how to deal with it?
I expect him and Gerald would be well looked after and not just cast aside. In any case, they are still working together, you would assume.
I think caleb's reaction to clarkson having 7.1million twitter followers said it all
Some I struggled with for 22 seconds
Very goodbut I agree great car , my late father had a drink driver crash into him in early 80’s they said if he had not been in a Volvo at that time he would have been killed , back in the day their safty features were streets ahead .
Not good ,My Mum was also hit by a drunk driver and was also told the only reason she wasn’t killed was because she was in a Volvo estate
I mean the people who hate and call him are the idiots, I’d need more than 4 million to sell .
