    Electricity tariffs/Prices

    Plastic Cubicles

    4th winter with easyfix and I like them no bother with them at all. Only slight issue is odd cow does turn around instead of reversing out of cubicle because of the flex and then soiling as she goes! The fact that cows just can't get stuck in them is a massive bonus.

    12 months prior the day rates were 40p+! You've got off lightly I would say! Up £12 grand is massive fair play

    Electricity tariffs/Prices

    Daylight robbery, they probably see the usage and claw it back in the SC just because of the HH meter. Been wondering how much a generator would cost to hire and run.

    Electricity tariffs/Prices

    Are you on a HH meter like me? I was quoted £7.50/day for new contact I was on £1.00 last year. £2700+ just for the sc, it's just ridiculous. Farmer down the road with more cows with a normal meter is on 0.50.

    Mattresses

    We have wilson mattresses with yellow top cover. No complaints on comfort but they are buggers to clean, very grippy. They do a black top cover and am told this is better to clean put slippier. I use a hand scraper to clean them, tried a brush but it just smears. What do you use?
