she has it already as soon as she comes home from school she gets changed and goes up to the sheep shed I have found her up there at all hours if she hears her dad go out late at night she will sneak down and follow him

She’s doomed!!!!!
Good on her, it’s great when they want to help.

My oldest boy has been watching 'prank' videos online, most recently ones where children get their mothers. He asked me if he could try some on Mrs Danllan; so, of course, I said 'Yes, girls and women really love that sort of thing.' 
That'll teach the little beggar to pinch my tools and not put them back...

Just had a delivery of beef finisher nuts from "For Farmers " I had the delivery note and decided to look at the "recipe" .Two of them caught my eye "products from the processing of Rosamarinus Officionalis , and Curcuma Longa . -- Rosemary and Turmeric rhyzome . Rosemary ? for beef , not lamb , but turmeric - curry colouring / flavouring ? I wondered if they were preparing the meat for it's eventual ethnic use perhaps ?

If you read nothing else today , take the time to read this Twitter thread by a vascular surgeon about the Guinea Pig Club
So much packed in to this

All of it , every last word
The actions of the few who turned history in our fortunes in WW2 as recognised in the famous quote by Churchill
The detail of the surgeon to record the facts
The pioneering surgeons
The humanity of those in East Grinstead taking down mirrors in public places and welcoming the patients
The non PC attitude of staff and hand selected nurses to restore self confidence and rehabilitation
The latter day photos of old men with wrinkles smiling in to the camera having substantially recovered from what would have been fatal burns
If you don’t read the pathos, depth of humanity and detail contained within that thread I can see how you may come to the wrong conclusions
If you’d care to suggest a more appropriate post location I’m happy to consider it

You must have read something different to me then because all I saw was graphic descriptions of how young men received horrific injuries. I am aware of the things you mention but I didn't see any of it in the link. Maybe I read the wrong bit
"The inferno would be perceived only when the flesh on the hands could be seen hanging off like shreds of tissue paper."
"The first thing survivors would remember would be the unrelieved smell of grilled pork stuck in their nostrils."
Every last word?

Yes then you're reading something different from me
Yes Nazi planes shot our Hurricane and Spitfire pilots up. The re-location of fuel tanks from wings to behind engine / in front of cockpit exacerbated burn injuries . That is CONTEXT to the thread. The thread is about the humane and pioneering work of the RAF surgeons who helped many of these pilots not only to live but pioneered both plastic surgery AND humane psychological steps to restore as much as they could for these heroic young men
Every last word but with the caveat that some of what is written is CONTEXT.
Yes , every last word
If you don't read all 40 or so Twitter posts in the thread or use a thread unroll medium, please don't bother to reply again and I'm sorry we just beg to differ

I read the LINK you POSTED and I read all the THREAD that was THERE. It was no bother replying but you needn't.

p.s. For CONTEXT it made me smile that my capitals were bigger than yours.

Took my 7 year old to Cheltenham race course yesterday to a young jockey taster session.
Today he went to a fun ride and my Mrs sent me this. Top Jockey in the making.

Well finally bought a Class Dommy 98, Don’t know whether it’s right or wrong but the sound of the Mercedes 6 is music to my ears. Keeping the JD1085 and we will have a competition in the summer to which performs best. Dealer tells me the Claas can do better than the JD but that old girl will take some beating.
