In the end, yes I am grumpy and pee'd off as I put a lot of hard work into drilling stuff on my own and was super happy on the 18th with how well it went and was chitted . ( lot can change in seems in 2 weeks)Reading this thread just about sums up this year for me. I've lost count of the number of disasters we've had. It's seriously depressing, when as @Two Tone says you have tried your hardest.
I sometimes remind myself that farming was all I ever wanted to do and I'm lucky enough to have found a way to do it - a problem so many people would give their right arm for.
But I notice wheat is down another £4 a tonne today so who cares if we haven't risked our whole life savings this year?
but so far this year my brother in law had a quad bypass at 45, my 11 yr old broke his arm that badly he needed to have it plated and my dad spent a week in hospital during the middle of this autumn drilling with acute pancreatitis. So in the end as long as we are all stood the right way up that’s what matters.
Anyway 2023 isn’t going to be going into the best year of my life short list
