    I wouldn't call mine and Corvos conversation here nonsense.

    You will never fully understand how unbelievable it feels to deliver a fine healthy calf, until you have done it. It is the greatest feeling you will ever feel

    aye, dont go to bed if its only 1am, sometimes its 3/4/5 and then up at 7 the next morning.


    if ya get a live animal its worth it though
    Some of it isnt so good though.

    if ya lose an animal. its one of the most depressing things but shur ya gain some, ya lose some. thats just the way it goes

    I get it, you're a farmer, you probably talk like one. Do you really have to spell like one too?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,446 ✭✭✭Corvo Attano

    Slap a set of quotes around it and it would fly but apart from that your playing a risky game there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,671 ✭✭✭✭Daniel7740

    I liked paper one but the mindless learning off of notes in Paper 2 was awful.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,671 ✭✭✭✭Daniel7740


    the use of the word boss is only for the 'travelling salesmen' haha

    Sorry I was absent from this for 2 days. Busy yesterday in town getting my suit and shoes sorted. Managed to get the whole lot for £210 or about €250. Includes shirt, tie, shoes, trousers and jacket. Really impressed with what I paid for and the quality of the suit is good!
    Today, I was called down to the yard to help out with the drive shaft of the combine. It snapped last night out in the field and my papa had another 10 acres to draw before the rain tomorrow so we were in a hurry but managed to get it fixed and going by lunch so I just sat in the yard drinking tea before taking the mapro out to tidy up the sheds. Two most productive days I've had all summer and I feel good at the fact that I've done something worth while :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,446 ✭✭✭Corvo Attano


    Yay for productivity\o/
