[QUOTE="Zippy768, post: 9260720, member: 59028"] Not sure on the "rock up late". Not uncommon to be out to try and get routine work done before the other half starts at 8, but tbf starting earlier never means I finish any earlier. Easy to forget all the weekend; silage and harvest hrs as well. There has to be some benefit to running a farming business - cos it ain't the monetary return. Also when kids are on hols, it's my other half that has to take time off and sorts the childcare between her and granny. I don't work with children on farm. In all honesty, I don't know how families with multiple children with 2 "traditional" jobs manage. In our case we are fortunate that other half earns well, and the reality is that I'd give up work and she would work 5 days not 4. Truth be told - even without a farm dwelling - we wouldn't be hugely worse off but probably have a far better quality of life [/QUOTE]
