Lease was coming to an end, so he feared that the new tenant would open it.

The trial was discussed on the Marion Finucan show there now and one of the speakers claimed the Ryan family have a case for compensation on their fathers death. It doesn't usually happen in murder cases because the offender is usually broke but because Quirke is a man of means the option is there.

Did he not transfer all properties and shares into the names of other family members in 2014, and received free legal aid as well.

It's great to hear that youngsters are baking and cooking. My two nieces (in their 20's) hardly know how to crack open an egg although my nephew is a dab hand at cooking only because he worked during the summer in my sisters restaurant while he was going through college. My own lads are good cooks but wouldn't have much experience with baking.

Iwent to college at just turned 18. I had never boiled an egg and was in a house share off campus, self catering. I had never cracked an egg either. By Christmas of first year I was a passable cook. Necessity is the mother of invention.

Just home from a wedding in Galway. Met Pippa O'Connors sister who gate crashed the after drinks in the bar. Herself and some gimp rambled in. No one recognised them which pissed her off no end. She says to me at one stage that "I'm Pippa O'Connors sister", to which, in my inebriated, yet in full control of my senses I replied "Ah, yer one of the travellers". To say she was bullin would be an understatement.

Wrapped up a nice bit of silage yesterday. Mowed on Fri baled on Sunday. Still very heavy bales. Should be nice stuff. Good to make a start anyway.

A junction with a hill up to it could be interesting for that outfit, you'd be hoping for a clear road and a rolling start. The tail swing on that would be fairly substantial and I'd be confident that a speed wobble could have the tail wagging the dog very quickly.

It reminds me of an elderly man landing to the mart one day with a clean 3rd generation Land cruiser and a 14 foot Ivor Williams with 2 decks of hogget's. The bay in which the sheep are unloaded has a nice incline up to it coupled with the actual doorway only being about 8 foot wide meaning it can test the reversing skills of a novice. Our man wasn't too handy in reverse and had spent a good 5 minutes riding the clutch of the jeep before I came upon the situation.

He had it well reddened at this stage and offered that I might be better able to maneuver it than him. Usually I'd oblige in such situations but I was slow to take over in case he'd then blame the clutch burning out on myself. I told him repeatedly to stick it into the low box and therefore he could creep backwards seeing as he wasn't able to keep the trailer straight at speed without riding the clutch. This didn't seem to register with him for whatever reason and eventually he got it back enough that we could let off the sheep.

Having spent a good 10 minutes unloading and penning the sheep the smell of a burning clutch still hadn't dispersed. More for the sake of conversation I asked him how he found the cruiser and that I was thinking of upgrading to a similar model. I was informed that he knew nothing about it having only the loan of it for the day as his own van was in having the clutch done. Some lads shouldn't be given a push bike never mind anything with an engine.

Is ash die back notifiable? I was mooching around out-farm this afternoon waiting on a cow to calve and noticed a lot of trees seem to have it - the leaves at the tips of the branches are black and sad looking.
Cow calved:) If it's a heifer I will call her Meg, maybe call it, if a bull, Harry!

No, but you should take a photo and notify the Dept of where you suspect its presence.

Reporting Suspect cases
Forest owners, forest nursery staff, and members of the public are asked to be vigilant for the disease and report (with photographs, if possible) any sites where there are concerns about unusual ill health in ash, to the Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, Food & the Marine, by e-mail forestprotection@agriculture.gov.ie or by phoning 01-607 2651.

Didn't think of that. I will watch for a wee while to see if they recover, which I'm assuming won't happen if it's die back. Will also take another mooch around the fields this week and see if it is in all of them.
I didn't want to go too far from the cow yesterday, even if she was getting along nicely on her own. The calf ran straight up to me this morning to say hello, pity I didn't have tags in my pocket.

It seems to have rebooted and lost all the previous ads.

I've a grease nipple here not taking grease, if I had any hair I'd have it pulled out by now.
Its in the sprocket of an old fransgard hay turner which I use for gathering rushes. It's completely solid no grease at all getting in.
New nipple, cleaned out hole with drill bit and bit of wire, wd40, diesel, hammer, blowtorch... Next step lose the plot and reverse it to the edge of a cliff.
