[QUOTE="Tarw Coch, post: 3346548, member: 1008"] That's all very well for the 30's but times move on. Dad was born in 1928 so saw the 30's as a kid, yes they were poor, but then as he said, so was everyone else in the village, they weren't any different really. And yes he never threw away nails and staples they were always re used, but then he grew up in very different times to me. If the future of farming is going to depend on straightening nails and selling second hand nuts and bolts why would anyone want to continue when it seems like half the village now drive a luxury car? Oh yes, and dad always saved nuts and bolts, never understood why he'd persevere with something with a stiff thread but as I've already said, he'd seen much harder times. [/QUOTE]
