    I know feck all about hay only everyone has their own opinion and you spend a week worrying if it's fit or if it'll rain friday or sunday! Been there done that unrolling round bales to toss out again as started getting hot. This was lush leafy stuff that was tossed out abit for a week, heard no bad reports after!

    I'm eating six slices of fried pudding- Three white, three black :D

    Cows woke me up at half seven, roaring like crazy. Dogs were back again, cows going crazy galloping round the field roaring.
    Wasn't allowed shoot them, owner is a garda :rolleyes: However he's going to be in trouble regardless as the dogs had horses and cows driven from fields onto the main road.

    What rank is he?
    last attack in this area was a sergeant...the community garda was on the blower in the morning asking if we had seen a dog around... as soon as heard there was damage done he shut up. Luckily the warden had the dogs before the sergeant turned up

    Dunno, they're blow ins from the next parish. I don't know if they even found the dogs from yesterday evening so they could have been out all night, we did see a car driving slowly around the place so they might have been out looking.
    Just checked our cartridges there for the gun and they're not suitable to shoot a dog anyway. We'd only shoot to kill outright, not injure.



    ......To the shops I go! Be prepared if there's a next time. :D

    Different size pellets. I'm not great with gun stuff either, I can point and shoot but I put in it what I'm handed!

    They're heavy duty shells to arming yourself with. Plenty to take care of most visitors. At fairly close range you've a lot of killing power there.
