Thanks ill have a look (y)
Any forum will have a hell of a job to compete with here though just look at 'the other place' we arent allowed to speak about. Has been a bit of a damp squib after all the fuss died down i barely check it once a week and dont feel i miss anything on it :sleep:

Care to point me in the direction of "the other place" wouldn't mind a wee look or is it invitation only?
 
Not really

Mainly FB groups or Twitter

Plenty of hobbie farmer ones, all pretty useless.
Twitter is great once you follow the right people.
I sold 90 t of corn on twitter on Friday, and have been talking to a bloke about selling some hay that my sheep don’t like, be good for cattle.

Just bought a camper trailer tonight from a Facebook site.

I've been on twitter for about 6 years, learnt a lot from some very good farmers on it, bought 2 sheepdogs, a ram or two and met a lot of the people there in real life . Just got to wade through all the bulls**t. ... and there is a lot of it there.
If you need any tips on who to follow let me know [emoji106]

Really strange as twitter does not appeal to me.

I’m well aware that you have a big input on twitter but I’m not sure I could spend more time fiddling with my phone.
