Looks like you got a mixed bag there what breeds did you end up using?

Doing my bit for the regional economy. Was hoping I wouldn't like it, but it's very good.

It won't seem too foreign because he's brought some prime Cumbrian weather with him.

Newton Abbot, by heck you boys can grow maize down here.

I'd say your not far from cows n grass, but i think he's my way this wkend.

Yep, not so far away. Newton Abbot is well up there on the list of Devon's ugliest places but every where around is nice as long as you stay away from Torbay or Plymouth. Totnes, Dartmouth, Kingsbridge there all good.

I'd invite you over to see a brown cow but as beef farmer says I'm off to to what could be the UKs wettest wedding tomorrow and dragging it out until Tuesday.

I have great admiration for a good friend of mine. He has school age children and a cracking 150 cow block autumn calving herd. He dried all his cows off last Friday on the last day of term and PSC is start of September.

If its who I think it is, I visited his farm and did a report on it a few years ago when I was doing my degree. Very impressive.

I was on the phone to the Vendor today for the above products - that is some of their current deals and they are good ones!

Excellent. Just think it could generate a lot of sales and a lot of bargains. I only stumbled on those by chance as there was nothing on the tele

Had one do that this spring. Must have had the feet out and laid down, the claw on the calves foot hooked the poly wire. Not sure how long she stayed like that but she was never right, tried charging you if you got anywhere near her.

Our plan is to start new threads about the good offers. Please feel free to give it a try with this one and link straight though to the product.

Possibly, he's just on the top edge of Plymouth, not a high profile chap but puts a lot of effort into having a life outside of farming and spending time with his family.

He's not organic but is one of you hippie types at heart. My bedtime reading at the moment is a Gary Zimmer book he lent me on biological farming
