Did this one slow down when it was unstickied ?

Good question. I think it was unstickied around the end of August, but can't find when it was re-stickied to check posting levels.
It seems to be weather dependent with more posts in winter.

Don't know - ask your solicitor I'd say.

And then tell the auctioneer your solicitor will be sending on any bill to the auctioneer, due to him wasting you and your solicitors time...

Id say the auctioneer was sweetned up someway with a bit of JC as well.

Any of us boards crew on list:rolleyes:

Don't do the whole cards stuff. But would get something for those than have helped me out in different ways during the year (or for their children instead). We, as a family, never went mad buying presents for each other. There are only so many socks/pieces of coal anyone needs.:D

You wont find out about the Auctioneer, but the sale price will be published on the Property Service's website soon enough. Then you can see what the "reported" sale price was. ( what was declared for Stamp Dutch reasons) and whether it was less than or the same as your agreed price.

Sure why would ya do that? Get them all to put their wellies and bring them out to see her. Let them give her a few tester kicks. Then all come to the conclusion that yeah she's dead.


Then back into the house and let them bring down their piggy banks and sort out the money for the knackery lorry.

Great life lesson.

If they still love farming after that they're in with a shout for transferring farm to down the road!!

Don't know yet. Didn't say anything to them. Knackery man reckoned tetany as there was froth coming from her nose. They had mineral buckets with them.

But what percentage of the SFP was the dead animal worth. If Whelan had a 100 LU then the kids will have to get 1% of the SFP.

Just to keep things above board...

Gosh, I wonder would it be more beneficial to feed them a powder mixed with nuts per day. Not that I'm doubting you but I'd be worried about it happening again.

Just back from calling bingo, my mic was broken so I was had to shout all the time

Guy borrowed our builders trailer few years ago as he wanted to cut some timber. Anyway after three weeks it haddent reappeared simi needed it and went looking. There it was still loaded to the top with rings outside his garage.

Mad as hell. I pushed it across the yard away from his garage door near the back door of the house and handed out All the rings into the middle if the yard so they would have to be carried across the yard into the shed. I know I threw them where his missus parks her car too just to make a point.

He's never asked to borrow it again. Result !

Also stuff coming back broken.
Lent tractor compressor/wheel pump to neighbour. Not back after a month so I go to get it back on the pretence that had flat wheel on tractor and me needing tractor to spread slurry or some story like that. Couple of months later when I genuinely needed to pump wheel it not work. Couldn't go back and say well I didn't really want it when I got it back.
