Not even bloody married 🤦🏻‍♂️ think that’s the problem we’ve been together 6 years and 2 kids and everytime she mentions a ring I mention a sheep [emoji15]
We came too a compromise. I agreed too get married after being together 11 years (since high school) and in return she never moans about how many sheep we have or tries too stop me buying sheep. The annoying thing is if I’d given in 5 years sooner it would have saved a lot of stress. Once we were married she settled right down! She does like too know what I’m going too spend on next. But she doesn’t bother about it much.



Although today I bought myself a new shotgun for Christmas (didn’t tell her until it was in the cabinet, she thought I’d gone buying her flowers) and she overheard Dad and I talking about it. I had too explain that a gun is a tool, so that doesn’t mean I have too spend the same amount on jewellery (a frippery) for her. 🙄 the debate is ongoing... 😁

Well I thought I best ask because last year when she was out for the day I set my sheperdess feeder up in the garden shed and she came home too 20 lambs bouncing around the back garden like it was the Olympic games ... I nearly slept in the garden shed with the lambs [emoji85]
Have you though about a tipping trailer and blow the feed into that . I used to put a couple of big square bales on the top and blow in through the grain chute . Worked well .
