[aggravated farmer]

Did the initial cow get the death penalty?

Ebloa of soup cures it.

Did the dog survive?

Yeah, dog and stick were fine although a bit beaten up.

 

[opininionated]

more people get killed walking along a pavement by cars than people get killed by livestock on field footpaths. Are we going to fence street pavements off as well?

They fence bridges so folks don't jump.

if someones determined to jump, a fence wont stop them. If a bull is real angry, a fence wont stop it.
the point I was trying to make was that the world is full of dangers where ever you are.

I wasn't arguing with you, just making the point that folks are gonna go where they like, regardless of a fence. Cattle though, tend to stay inside.

Sorry, it's still me.

 

[colhonk]

grumpy liked your post.

 

[aggravated farmer]

grumpy liked your post.

Doesn't mean I'm grumpy. Means he liked my post. If I were to say, "Its easy to rob that bank" then the bank gets robbed. Does it mean i'm the one who robbed it?

 

[NZDan]

they are all the same to me

You bloody English are all the same

@colhonk If you were stating that @grumpy was banned, then you are incorrect. He has been pre-modded, which is basically anything he would like to post being looked over and approved by one of our moderators. He has broken his silence in a thread in the off topic area titled "the Trials and Tribulations of forum life" or something of that nature. I imagine if he was not under pre moderation he would like to tell his side of the story. I probably wouldn't be the only person to say that he (and another member whom I have never communicated with, @Walterp) were major contributors to this forum. It is a bit quieter since the departure of both persons. However, give them time. I'm sure they will be back if given the opportunity to start over with a clean slate and not be bothered by past quarrels.

As for the continuation of this discussion, lets please go back to talking about a guy that got knocked on his arse

apologies for the old thread resurrection, but say you catch someone with their dog off the lead running around the field away from the footpath regardless of stock or not (so not under control) what what steps can we take for the persistent offenders?.....as I understand video it with the phone, have a word with them and explain that its not a national park then contact the dog warden.....then what?....what can he do?...is there a civil charge for a dog out of control?....all very well telling them to stop but following it right through how do you actually stop it.

Quite simply nothing you can do unless it is worrying livestock.

Walked my path today and once again the NFU signs have been broken off the path marker post! Grrrrrrrr! If only I could catch the perpetrator and explain the error of their ways.

Accidentally run it over?
