Yes but why would those selfish farmers have cows on their fields? Eh? Eh? Surely they're just there to provide somewhere for the great unwashed to take their dogs for a Tom tit?

Enough said.
The best letter that I have seen in my local daily paper, the East Anglian Daily Times was in recently and said words to the effect of "all the letters that appear in this paper are rubbish". Well done to the editor for publishing it!

As soon as you tell the public not to go out or keep away from each other , that's it they turn into militant psycho ramblers on a mission .... then when the orders come out from above you can all do wtf you like again , they say ahh right best get back into couch potato mode and watch telly again... if you tell they cant they want to , if you tell them they can they couldn't give a fork .
As goes for the cows being in a field ect.

That's like the old strapline for the letters page in Viz: 'It's forthright, it's Frank, it's a pile of old wnak!'

The planet would be a better place if people just stop going on Facebook.
I think.
Don't really know because I've never been on there, but it does seem to upset everyone. Same for Twitter.
Why does everyone use it?

exactly my thoughts , this freaking creation has caused that much grief and upset and trouble across the country , cant get my head round it , people go on to boast or say what they had for din or their latest purchase , opposite to my way of thinking any how , people know what your doing before you know your self without telling the world on that thing .

I have noticed that the number of walkers and cyclists up and down the metalled /passable bridleway farm lane has less and less people using it as the days/weeks go by, when lockdown first appeared we had a constant increasing and high number of new users .This latest lockdown there is a dearth of them ,seems theve returned to the enviroment from which they came although ive got a new dogshit bagger that ive yet to have a meaningful conversation with

many years ago, I tried watching John Craven on Countryfile, and he said "we all know what the countryside is for, for us to enjoy walking" or something like that, at that point I switched over and never really watched it again, but it shows the attitude of the urban majority to the countryside.

Was thinking exactly the same today when I was having a quick look.
Britain's farm toys ad with a competition asking the young ones to explain why its so great to be a farmer or something like.
Not many comments but several from vegan and animal rights trolls with the usual murderer/rapist/torturer carp.
On what is predominantly a kids page FFS.
Needs shutting down, we managed perfectly well without it before...

The problem is that they named it after the wrong end of the alimentary canal.

The same could be said for the entire internet - maybe the problem isn't "them", but "us"?Was thinking exactly the same today when I was having a quick look.

It all certainly gives a heap of opportunity if you like taking exception to what other people think and say and do.
But that is our choice, I have to choose to scroll past that type of crap because it is everywhere and it does me no good whatsoever.
Gives you a really warped idea of 'what people are like' when really it's what the internet facilitates.
I bet if we all carried swords and pistols the conversations would be different!
However, you can learn a whole lot if you choose to use it for that, which is a big benefit, and also have a bloody good laugh if you wish.

I ventured onto Facebook for the first time on Friday night (to try and knock a 'dodgy' pic off the British Wool Board page - that's a story for a thread over in Livestock & Forage
)Finished up having a chat with a perfectly decent bloke from NZ
Anyhow, this morning, I've got dozens and dozens of alerts??/notifications?? of 'people I might know' that want to be my 'friends'
I think I'll just creep quietly away and not press any more buttons
