Crappy calendars - one pictures and 12 months just rip each month off from fertiliser rep, hardware shop, feed mill

Slightly better calendar from the diesel company but its 12 pictures of the diesel lorry not very exciting but at least it changes each month.

Slurry contractor gave us a mug one year, woolly hat last year and came this year with 10kg of spuds for each if us

Silage contractor we get nothing from. Local massey dealer we havent had anything from them in years perhaps we need to upgrade a tractor to get something from them.

Might get a pocket diary from the local builders yard if were in for something this month or next.

That's typically it, no tins of sweets or beer or wine or anything like that

Been promised a nice a4 page a day diary from three counties which is turning up today along with a calendar,
cidre from the grass seed man and enough note pads to sink the titanic for a 2nd time,
calendar's arriving thick and fast,

Not much else but I tend to find most of my reps drop freebies in throughout the year,
Had a really nice regatta coat from cogent this year which is by far the best of the lot, hats from nwf, Crediton Milling, contractor etc

Got a night out for 2 from the market for their dinner dance, I sell quite a few sheep through them. Couple of good bottles of wine from one that I buy out of. Got hat, pens and diary from ag merchant. Got a pair of overalls from machinery dealership. I must be spending to much money. 😂
