As a part timer, I enjoy it on the whole. I simply wouldn’t bother if I didn’t and would stop if I stopped enjoying it.
Days like Monday take a bit of beating - sun splitting the sky lambs running circles round you and the grass greening up.
Days like today - horizontal sleet, two toddlers bouncing off the walls at home and a wife needing a hand with them and ewes needing checked in rented fields 10 miles away. Could have seen it far enough.
I get a real kick out of improving the ground, the infrastructure and the stock, especially now we’ve been at it a few years. I love the planning and strategising stage and the implementation gives me great satisfaction. decent prices over the last couple of years have also helped.
