Im alright Jack attitude, plenty of guys left holding the baby around here for those guys to be able to pay big prices elsewhere. Dont be on here crying when you dont get paid/ cheque goes bouncy bouncy and your weanlings gone. Play with fire, get burned with fire.

Mods can I suggest something about image search?

Can pics posted here not be put on facebook or instatwat or that?
Only realised that they can be reverse searched and people's profiles found.

Or at least put yer profile on private!

I agree, was on that ask.fm when I was 17 & never again. Young girls putting on make up & asking if they're pretty. Stupid site & horrible outcomesebo.

Whelan, facebook has the report button, I've never used it or been on the receiving end but does it do aout?

i reported him many times, but the problem was alot of his crap was being sent by private message... he would just open another account if he got blocked, real sly little fecker, i was policing my young lad but his parents where not

Someone could just stick up guidelines on how to make their accounts private.. those with concerns could investigate it..

I use imageshack, it has the option to make all or some photos private, can't say I bother but I don't have anything up there I want to keep secret !!

Very pleased with the calf very leggy i thought

Don't these seem fairly cheap? I would thought he would be as well off sell these a year ago if they are 2 now and he would take €1,150 (not sure what he menas €2k for both if €1,150 stated price), they do seem stocky to make breeding stock but would think they would do very well on the hook with €100 quid each on meal over 6-8 wks.

No he fairly gave the esb poles in the fence a right going over ...luckly there is walls on three sides slowly replacing the 4" ones in as he breaks them , in a week or so he will be sauntering a round all quite again.no more action till next year :D

No its a 1994 mf 390 , bought it new then with the shuttle gear box there is only 2600 hours genuine up on it . still has its original tyres , it has never giving a days trouble then again it was never left out a night and regularly serviced.

pakalasa

I meant an MF365. It looks a bit smaller than a 390 in the photo.

when their selling:rolleyes:, the opposite is the case around, loads of lads turn up to buy and only a few animals. so 6 fellows may go hammer and tongs at each other for only 3 cows:D. one mart I use could be as low as a dozen strong cattle during off peak times
