looks like we might be able to afford two glasses of water with our bread for a little while longer. Butter seemed a strong trade

It does when you see AMF has eased.
WMP was by far the largest product sold at around 50% with SMP at approx 25%.
Those 2 set the rise this month.

Tell your man putting on to man up and pre wipe as well. We have a pre sprayer and wipe before putting on.

Staff retention is far more important than being 5 over the limit.

Telling any staff to “man up” is a fast way to doing it all yourself. It’s not there problem it’s mine, I’m the one who’s responsible not them and at the end of the day it’s up to me to implement something to solve it if became that big of a problem. The bit you miss is in late lactation a 50 point is doing 350 cows an hour, there’s no person alive can teat prep and cup on at that speed.

I was going to say "if you like Red cows I have a Red bull calf who needs a home" but i have just seen where you are. The haulage might not be viable!

Since when has test prep been optional?

Hairless dogs are worth a fortune, could be a lucrative new venture! Get it 2 calf coats.

Has anyone a Delaval parlour for sale?
Specifically looking for MPCs sorry for the plug on here thought it might get better traffic than on the wanted section.

Good luck with that! We’re extending and going auto id in the parlour, the majority was second hand but MPCs are new as we couldn’t find any.

Have chance of some but may be too old to go with the newer milk meters I have a grant for. Thought I was sorted with a whole parlour, but sold to some else under my nose
