I wonder how much Moy Park are paying for all that pitch side advertizing in Brazil??

There was a bit in Rad Darcy about that.
Seems it's part of a series of adds ran by the parent company costing half a million euro.
It would want to shift some ammount of chicken Kiev to make it worth while

Enjoy, it's a wonderful area.
We've been holidaying in the region between Sable D'Olonne and Bordeaux now for more than ten years and just love it. Been watching the weather and it's real nice there too.
We're heading out on the 28th ourselves.

Have the same done on mine, the tiniest fracture required a plate and 15 bolts. If you saw the x-ray of it after it looked like the greatest hatchet job ever, bolts in at every angle. That was fourteen and a half years ago, think you can have them taken out if it starts giving you hassle. Never had a problem with mine, could feel it a bit if I got a belt of a hurl across it though.

Massive crowd at it, but only the same amount of exhibitors as usual, huge amount of horses and sheep on sunday.
I thought that they'd get a lot more exhibitors and stands, being the race coarse and so near galway,

Where was it advertised?? I'm from co. Galway and never knew it was coming up!

Thanks, I wont.
Prob about 9-10 weeks old, got a week on the cow first. I don't think it was the drop back to OAD but he will be on TAD again now.

Called into the vet yesterday and got the few things I gave him and will be calling him again tomorrow if does not perk up very fast.
Will try the yogurt and see how that goes for him.

How is the calf doing?

Just waiting for the full irish in a Dutch restaurant in Portugal. Fierce cosmopolitan so we are. Jet fuel required to power a day in the waterpark. Waitress didn't know whether she was after getting a pat on the back or a kick in the hole when I said we needed tables for 15.

anyone listening to I radio last night, about half 9-ish? they were having a bale off. they wanted drivers to ring in and see who made the most bales in the day!! it was going great, then it got better....

some dude rang in and he was gas, he was chatting away about baling and the lad that was baling with him, and then told the presenter to hang on, and he shouts,(out the door of the tractor) "turn on I radio, turn on I radio", the presenter asked him what was he at, and he said, I'm just back in the yard, all the boys are here!!

Was putting sucklers into a pen last night on my own. All go in except the one calf. Must have spent 30 mins trying to get him in with the others. He kept going back and forth under the fence wire. There's always one that tests your patience.:mad:
