Remember the old saying - "a horse can really hurt you with it's hind legs -Definitely no horses,even for the kids.....they eat grass and make a mess in the winter.
but will kill you with his front legs !"

Do not f**k with London Commuters! I once watched a bloke get pushed off a train for the audacity of having a large rucksack.
I reckon if that TFL chap hadn't been there it would've been different story.
XR seems to be a good example of how to alienate the public and lose their support. Impressive to manage it in such short time, really.

Did they all shout " HOW DARE YOU !"Yes,I noticed that and I will admit to shouting at the tv ‘go on,get stuck in!’.
That looks like off cuts trimmed off and put on a plate to give the dog. There is probably chicken in some kind of sauce (stirred with that spatula thing) somewhere that you can't see. Or the dog has decided your swapping dinners and has stolen it leaving you the off cuts

You don't need to "have a word."
You need to have a conversation - alternatives could be more painful and expensive.

Another interesting Nuffield report: https://nuffieldinternational.org/live/Report/CA/2016/tony-balkwill
Who would have guessed where the best farmers were?
The take-home, from this region and the several growers I spent time with, was very humbling. These growers were truly some of the best farmers I have ever met. They were farming tough, erosion-prone soils, and variable rating all of the applications they could. They were aware of all costs per acre, and embraced technology. They also expressed a clear limit of the potential of that investment. A quote from one that is a great summary of this area, was as such “Technology cannot out-farm mother nature”. That was the completion of a few weeks in a very unique farming region of southern Australia. It was quite the contrast to the thought process of Ontario and the UK regions, I had visited previously. While Ontario and the UK showed amazing farming practices and results, they, by no means, had the volatility of this region in Australia. The weather volatility forced them to be more aware of the economics of farming.
haha - post that in ANY other thread, stand back and watch the reaction

He looks rather like one of those old paintings of cattle!I’m quite impressed with how the bull looks in this photo. Like he’s got pig in him or something
If only he looked like that in all the photos I might be able to sell him for something!

I don’t know if it’s an illusion of the photo or he’s just at a good slimming angle for his head or maybe he finally grew into it. Usually anyone who sees him says he’ll have calving troubles because his head is so massive. I think it’s just a block head thing because of his horns.
Its good that he might look like a pinheaded old painting ?
