Hereford must be ,I rang someone af 2.30 and I was his first caller.
When he realised it was me he seemed rather depressed.

Quite a few were 'regulars' who traditionally buy from Brightwells/Sunderlands . One has a livery yard and buys 5/6 hundred bales every year and nearly always buys some of mine .

It’s got as farm sales are a waste of time up here unless you want too spend far more than an item is worth!

.........or listen to an in depth description of how useless the machine your looking at is ,by a 'high Vivs jacket 'expert'!

Marvelous how many time wasters and sightseers there are about when you have anything forsale, usually folks whos time would be better spent at home on the farm going by the state of them

Well that’s just alienated any potential customers you had

I recall a sale a few yrs ago when one such 'high vis jacket' bidder tried to start bidding on a decent plough at £200 when the auctioneer was asking £1500 ......said auctioneer to bidder ..." if you have come to buy then bid sensible or bugger off home" .....the plough made £2250

plenty idiots like that about, in all sales. The result is sales take longer, in big ones, an awful lot longer, which none of us want to hang around longer than we have to.

Just a hunch but Arctic ice growth is the best its been this century so when the seasons turn in the spring all this cold wll be released to the Northern Hemisphere so there is a high chance of a cold ,late spring especially in northern Scotland. The lack of aircraft in the sky may be part of the reason for such a cold Arctic and better ice growth.

Funny I was thinking about this a couple of weeks ago, when the weather charts come on the Arctic area has been dark blue for weeks and weeks, I even tried to google Arctic temperatures for the Autumn but couldn’t find information, have you got a link to show the amount of ice?

 

[som farmer]

what happened to the ice melting ? or is that conveniently forgotten ?

This is quite a good thread to follow. Last page has the latest areas of ice growth. https://www.netweather.tv/forum/top...he-northern-hemisphere-winter-202122/page/12/
