Happy days.

You've not lived until you've seen Charles snr balanced precariously on the back of a power Harrow "adding ballast" whilst a visibly annoyed Charles jnr rags the guts out of the elderly Ford 4000 its attached to in a vain attempt to break the surface of the iron like hard pan that passes for...

I'll remember to bring some old rubbish over on the day so he can have a rummage through

Like father like son (at least in that respect)

Must just attack foresters? Maybe an anti hare coursing dog.

@carbonfibre farmer offered food and didn't partake? Better get him down the hospital quick. I've seen him scoff roadkill that was still twitching...

It was bloody wet is all I remember. No match for my trusty subaru though. Also of note was the near miss with a jack Russell running about on the road a bit earlier.

I could have shovelled a load in to the boot I suppose.

Is that Binham? I think we drove through there on Sunday on our way to the priory

You should see what else he carries about with him 'just in case'

Yeah, the hare coursers don't seem to have much trouble....

Oh no, he didn't get the Clarke snr treatment did he? Should have floored it and got out while the going was good.

More likely to see Kenneth Williams playing you Charlie!

Get a newer forester if you have to, but spending a bit of money and keeping your current one is probably the more cost effective choice at the moment. As a subaru owner of many years (impreza, forester, legacy and XV) I've never had any reliability or rust problems, at least no worse than any...

Can't say I've noticed any wage increase. I'd say I was worse off now than I was 5 years ago as any increase in my wages has got nowhere near inflation. This is probably true for everyone who is not on minimum wage. The untold story here is wage compression which has seen the lowest paid and...

Averaged out over 8 years maybe....

And yet the stack of pallets and row of old tyres hasn't moved an inch!

Average experience goes down every year whilst wages stagnate, one reinforces the other. They fiddle the figures to make what we produce seem to be as good as if not better than ever before. In reality, they have lowered the bar so much now that we are shipping trash and have moved from high...

I know two lads, early 20s both work on a largish estate locally as the only full time employees, the rest is either contract labour or family. I don't know for certain what they earn but they both drive top of the line year old pick ups, are members of a fairly costly shooting syndicate and...

Wrangling your father is a full time job in itself!
