I was expecting another version of the Oooooh thread.

Did Kaleb actually say ‘You have lovely hair’ directly to the Prime Minister or was it dubbed afterwards?

SFI will be a distant memory as Dame Janet Hughes successor uses yet more taxpayers money to pay for consultants to produce yet another scheme to pump money into the rural economy which is in recession. The infrastructure supporting agriculture is close to collapse. Those farming without debt...

Not many Cachena cattle if any at all in the UK and not on the CTS breed code list. Old fashioned British Friesian will produce a beef cross heifer that would make a decent suckler cow but wouldn’t expect her to perform on ground more suited to Highland or Galloway. Where are you based...

She who organises tour schedules has suggested a trip to Wales in May because apparently I need a break and a change of scenery. I have explained to her the confusing Welsh government anti motorist policies and that she will have to drive and she should expect a blizzard of speeding fines...

I have a list. At the top are a couple of presenters of seasonal BBC productions and a Guardian journalist who doesn’t like sheep closely followed by the sons of a deceased financier much loved by Private Eye. There are more but feel free to add your own.
