People had plenty of practise during Covid, dobbing in their neighbours. Can't wait for the first tabloid story on this, only it was mowing grass.

Are you sure the linkage is moving freely? It may be as simple as that.

Mmmm, it took a while to come back with that devastating repartee.

You might find there isn't much of a tourist season, it's apparently small matters like this (and tourist taxes etc) that influence where to go on holiday, or not.

Why stay with BG anyway? Move provider, it's seamless and easy, just make sure you read the meter! "Half hour" charging will be a menace, I have refused a smart meter for just that reason.

Conspiracy or Cockup? I think you attach too much ability to authority to organise such things, (and then keep quiet about it afterwards). After all, said authorities can barely organise emptying your dustbins. Who else might conspire? Obviously it's the supermarkets! Not much of a conspiracy...

"Regenerative Farming" is a term used by people who have spent 10 minutes on the internet to tell farmers who have spent generations actually farming what to do.

Yes, providing it's a qualifying item, but repayments are as above.

Don't forget when doing your cash flow predictions that while the interest is tax deductable, repayments of the capital sum are after tax.

The new values are payments for "public goods", not food production. It's been heading this way for 10 years plus. You are a land user, it's not your responsibility to produce food, your role is to make a return on your investment in order to support yourself and your family. If that includes...

And very helpful they are too, all sorts available. Pictured is mine, baby auger (about 6/7t/hr) mounted on an old Norton 6t trailer, hydraulics powered by the towing tractor. It works well, enough seed for a decent day's work. My drill has a front hopper which when lowered is only chest high so...

Thanks, I'll give it a go

While we are talking about this, do you mind if I butt in? I have a 7618 on which the first electric spool sometimes works first time, sometimes it'll take two or three pulls to make it work, but it does always eventually work. What's the fix please? Thanks.

I'm not quite sure what your point is, if you'd like to talk about it further I'm happy to do so. You know where I can be found.

If I can't make a decent margin out of food production then SFI gives me the chance to say no, I won't grow that crop, I'll take the government shilling instead and wait for prices to rise. I can switch on and off like that because I'm now on my own, and with minimal fixed costs too. It's a very...

I have a 6 row JD snapper header for sale, used on a JD 2258 combine. And a Gruber knife mill, used for milling damp maize grain into a meal suitable for ensiling.
