Yes, your right early morning waiting to go for a gastroscopy obviously not thinking too well. There were rumblings among our Continental customers with imports being banned long before it was taken seriously in the UK. Regardless of legislation they should never have been feeding the stuff to...

I'm guessing it started around 1946 and finished in 1978 when the effects of BSE really kicked in and killed the export of breeding heifers stone dead knocking over £1000/head of between the Feb and October sales, thanks dairy boys for feeding very young calves MBM, since then Chernobyl -...

So very sad, heartfelt condolences to his loved ones

Merry Christmas every one

uurgh grumf, got the 'Santa' run to do today sort out who's getting what, cards written then go round picking up and distributing stuff to immediate family, I really, really, REALLY just want to go back to bed rather than drive all round Dumfriesshire

Right on cue it has struck, feeling absolutely crap and just wanting to lie down with a bottle of 'festive spirit' but there's no chance will be running around like an idiot until Christmas lunch. any fellow sufferers out there?

My one and only post on this topic ANYWHERE!! How the feck can these ex spurts and ad vicers claim to be able to help/advise when the f**king rules haven't been written yet, whole load of chancers scamming money for talking utter drivel, anything else is all just speculation so the market men...

Just going back to what they did in medieval times; dairies in the middle of cities and every manor house/abbey had a fish pond.

We've been doomed since the mid 70s on a slow inexorable slide. For the majority of the UK the cost of production under the restrictions we operate under cannot be recovered from the UK market. It would be possible under more intensive system but the chattering classes aren't going to allow...

Exhibit 2: Langholm Moor

Really depends on how much time/money you have to chuck at it. Drain, spray and Lime would be the starting point, then reseed in spring, lightly graze the reseed with sheep and if you're lucky maybe get a late cut of hay/haylage the first year. after that turn the sheep on and graze in blocks...

My understanding (though this could be total blx) is a large part of it is the Langholm Moor, managed as a conservation/rewilding project to protect/encourage Hen Harriers &etc word is, first the Harriers succeeded numbers increased all looked well but the grouse started to disappear then the...

Son's lambing started this morning. Well, I say 'lambing' and I'm assured he did indeed remove it from a Texel gimmer but it looks more like a full grown Clydesdale to me :eek: :scratchhead:gee-up lambie. Apparently he's called Chaos, the gimmer is calling it something else right now, when...

Are HMG going to let farming go to the wall? Yup out of ignorance rather than antpathy Have they let it happen before. Yup 1930s. It isn't a result of Brexit this has been coming forabout 30yrs as the population becomes more and more disconnected from how their food is produced and farming has...

:wideyed::facepalm::ROFLMAO::notworthy:absolutely feckin brilliant

Main problem before the quick roast was Flourosis from the flourine, yes they had great teeth but their joints were fusing together. Personally I'd rather have bad/no teeth than a fused spine, hips, knees etc. Potassium is another causes some people real problems, didn't know this until I was...

Far more concerned about the stuff being added to our food (for example monosodium glutamate, potassium chloride, calcium chloride) and drinking water (chlorine, flourine). Interesting findings on the bones of the population around Mt Vesuvius as a result of flourine toxicity in the food and...

Spending the morning on the driving range with my son and 2 of my grandsons with the golf clubs I got them for Christmas, surprised at just how focused they were and how much they absorbed. they start lessons on the 14th. 84yr old dad still shows my son and I how it's done in what has become a...

Happy, healthy and prosperous new year to one and all.

if the seal is airtight just put some hot water in one the air will expand as it gets hotter and push them apart
