Watched the sisters in wellington boots 👢, TB! 10/10 for a good in depth personal devastating ordeal for Joe Public/ viewers who are not agri related to get an indepth site into TB, what it entails and the destruction it does, don’t think Chris Packham will be on their Christmas card list!
They farm not that far from us,in fairness to the girls and family,the place is immaculate and they do a very good job.
The kids farm park is also excellent and they do great great coffee 👍

That is a fair comment but that is kind of my point. It is f#cking rude telling other people that they (and their children) are basically to much to bear for us all.
I hear that but recently I’ve been in a very bad spot mentally and I know how little it would take to make me end it all. When you spend days working out the best way to finish it it isn’t fun.

I don’t think this is the place to tell anyone that.

Hope you feel better soon.

I know your in a different country, but I always find this time of year difficult too, short damp days, unable to get on land cause too wet. I know it should be a time to rest and recharge.

Local lad took his own life couple days ago. Had a 2 year old son.☹️

im improving. My issue is not an easily solved one and has been simmering for a very long time. It’s very strange going from working all hrs day and night to not being able to leave the house for a week.
Talking it over with some trusted people and started counselling so will see what happens.

Edit. I don’t believe I could ever take my own life but the mind works in strange ways

But this is the sort of place you can talk about it as I'm sure most of us at least understand where you're coming from.
Failing that send a message - I'm always happy to listen if you want to get something off your chest - let's face it, I have to listen to Saunders...
