Do we have any farmers here?

I've a strong crop of long grass out the back.

Grew some chillies in a pot last year.

Yeah, I'd call myself a farmer.

I miss Mart and Market on RTE2

An auld lad telling you about Mart prices, with a film of some cattle being herded around a mart.

Lovely stuff.

"We were listening in on the cows on the CCTV"

God, this is just like Sean Doherty on nighthawks, isnt it... I wonder will the Government fall over this one..

I grew up on a farm, but it was left to my brother who absolutely lives and breathes it. That's where I keep my rescue donkey. Just love the lifestyle.

To advertise their hoof repair.

Brendan has great wit, he will be missed.

CountyHurler

And if you ever get a text back from the cow and you're not sure what they mean, you can always look up Holly Carpenter's website..

Not a lot of cameras in my neck of the woods.....

As it is they heard the sheep from the car as they drive along the road shouting at the dog...

Atlantic Dawn

Big science in to it now, I would doubt the old schoolers were bothered with any of it.

An oul fella at home claims to know everything about cattle and cattle prices and his nickname will perpetually be 'Dillon'

Ol' Donie

Did you hear about the farmer who won an award?

He was out standing in his field.

*bows*

Welsh Megaman

Any excuse...

Good for you bb.....:)

You're a very good person to be looking after your donkey.....xxx:)

It's a different world isn't it?

CountyHurler

Jaysus.... Tubridy gets Richard E. Grant & Gabriel Byrne... Brendan O'Connor gets Richard E. Plant & Gabriel Barn...

Atlantic Dawn

Some scientists in the country should come up with the best formula to make the strongest percentage beer that still tastes decent. Think of the trips to the bottle bank and glass it would save.

tampopo

The amount of baby milk formula sent to China is unreal.

In fairness RTE look after theirs as well. They even give them programmes to host, like the LLS....

I come from a farming background. No dairy. Arable farming. Not much money in it these days.

Well to be truthful I took in a rescue pony but he had a friend, a donkey. I just couldn't split them up, so I took the two of them. I'm a bit soft in that direction, but I really think one would die without the other.

Atlantic Dawn

There will be no market for it.

Ol' Donie

Ask what's the craic with Fargo Boyle.

Did Chris the sheep ever forgive him?

paleoperson

By Jaysus he's threading dangerous ground there suggesting older farmers aren't good and should give up land.

Planning an early start tomorrow, thinking 5am, but not usually that early.
Milking done by 7am and calves fed.
eat
check other cattle are ok.
do a few other jobs
relax watch the United game and the Chelsea/Arsenal game, then milk finished by 7.30.
I might listen to the Chelsea/Arsenal game and get done by 6pm.
I'll see tomorrow.

So going to bed soon.

Atlantic Dawn

With all the extra cows they will be getting will they be punished for the CO2 emissions like the motorists are raped out of it in motor tax?

Is that in the top field... I hope you got it rolled...

grey_so_what

I have the height of respect for farmers.

It's lovely to see a young generation like these lads.

It was great to see Irish beef to see so welcome back to the States after such a long absence....You can't get better than an Irish fillet steak....

paleoperson

This guy is a know-it-all. Not funny, not clever, really knows very little.

2.5% growth in dairy consumption per annum.

Atlantic Dawn

Pity they didn't bring in a live cow for a milking or hoving demo.

Maybe that's why they got Ray D'Arcy in?

*joking!*

ProudDUB

Her social life is a once a month meeting in a farming "discussion group" ?

Jayzus, some one get the poor wee lamb over to Coppers pronto like !

Skid X

This was my favourite farming Soap Opera. Will they/Won't they :pac:

Black Menorca

Ah here. End the show now Brendan. Terrible stuff.

Yes but your going to get countries going mental producing it, lots of the Eastern European countries will have tiny wage costs and could sustain loses on the current price and still remain profitable.
