And Ami opti

I had a bull several years ago that threw massive calves, most of them backwards. As a farm we’ve always fed cows on the generous side (despite my protestations) so the cows couldn’t calve them. I sold the bull to another farm (told him the problems) and he took the risk. His cows are like hat...

Went on a stag there about ten years plus ago. Had a mate who was obsessed with the show at the time so he booked us into that hotel(flamingo or oasis? Something like that) was a cracking weekend

I found when we were Severn Trent then they allowed 3 leaks in a 15 year period. Now we are waterplus we have to pay, whatever the cost. They have no interest in helping the customer

It’s banned in the EU I think?

Perhaps I should have written “functional electricity”

I suppose the question is does he want to fall out? If he does, then find another buyer. He will be back anyway

I would say you’ve done your bit. I’ve been on the receiving end of heifers being accidentally in calf and it’s not pleasant, particularly when you’ve bought them at 8 months old. However in your situation above, you offered to rectify and he chose to take the risk.

Yes, buy a Titan from screw fix for the job. About 50 quid. Basically disposable

No, it doesn’t, but if you have 2 yellows in then you effectively have 2 primaries

I did it through our sandstone farmhouse wall. Sometimes it’s easier to do it in stages, rather than do it all at once. Core and stone gets warm. With the sandstone it became really tricky to drill. Left it for 12 hours, no problems

Mart staff will tell you anything

Of course it does. You can’t drill herbal leys etc if it’s too wet
