Finished lambing this morning with 2 live lambs out of a quad, weaned the oldest orphans and kicked them outside they've done ok this year

You should come and have a look around here 🤣 it's a Mishmash alright, one day I'll flatten it and put the sheds up in line with each other

https://northboundgear.co/collections/mens-waterproof-pants/products/outdoor-waterproof-pants I use these, super comfy and warm. Haven't ripped them yet and I've had a pair for 2or 3 years. Wouldnt stand up to much fire near them I don't think but other than that they are excellent Also have a...

Trade in Frome today definitely seemed to be slower, still strong but the buyers are getting more fussy

Both cows sold for 1.96/kg happy enough with that

That the one they give you when you buy your first livestock?

Yes but only once, led on her lambs in the middle of the field and pushed her uterus out. Think she'd had an infection

Not often sentimental about cows but these 2 are off to the cull ring in the morning, first heifers I bought 10 years ago to start my pedigree herd. Never missed a beat until this year when they didn't get in calf

Lambings going well then? 🤣

It's actually pretty good stuff if you can't eat dairy

Lovely sheep 👍 definitely not my thing but nice all the same

It's not really the engineers fault, I've not even seen one yet. BT very helpfully sent out a 4g router so we could have some sort of internet. That was delayed by a week because someone at BT decided not to send it out for reasons unknown. Oh and also we don't get 4g in my house 🤐

I've had the same problem, the SQP was on holiday or something and they didn't have anyone to cover 🤷‍♂️ To be fair though on your second point that is what they are meant to do, not just dish it out willy nilly
