[QUOTE="Lazy Sod, post: 5983744, member: 207"] I quite agree, [USER=714]@B R C[/USER] , I had my AHA for 50 years, from the age of 23 and am very grateful for it. Unless you had a lump of money, buying a farm was out of the question. Tenancies were hard enough to find in the sixties and in the seventies, but the 1976 act made them even rarer. My landlord took a dairy farm back in hand, spent a lot of money, probably lost a lot and finally re-let it. I shall always be grateful to my father. The son of an estate worker and one of 9 children, he left school aged 13 and went to work on an estate farm. He worked his balls off, his talents were recognised and eventually he became the farm manager for the son of his employer, on a different farm. He started farming on his own in 1928 on a 30 acre farm with 7 dairy cows and some poultry. He obtained the tenancy of my farm in 1935 and never looked back. [/QUOTE]
