There was a guy renting land beside us. Turned out he was an 'enforcer' for one of the criminal families in the well known Limerick feud. He became notorious afterwards. Still alive despite a number of attempts on his life.

If he got paid at least it was in cashðŸ˜‰. Plenty of them around here wouldn't be to far away from lim city meet one fella nearly every day he was on tv not to long ago about the horse and sulkys.

Had a think about this and my most expensive mistake was forgetting to flick the switch to turn the power back on to a fence I had been stripping down. Knocked out power to about 200ha without realising it and the cows winter grazing Kale in the paddock broke through their break fence overnight. Feeding out the next morning and three were dead, was lucky to have just been three as we were very restrictive on the Kale looking back.
