Buford T. Justice XIX

There are a lot of gangs of 'walkers' around this are with the last few months with their dogs upsetting a lot of cattle and leaving gates open. Yesterday, 5 or 6 with dogs walked across a neighbours fields and chased his sheep, killing one ewe in his yard. He managed to shoot one dog but they took no notice whatsoever of him.



There's talk of a meeting being called to help protect our areas from this kind of carry on. It's a frightful situation when the Gardai don't even bother their ar$e to respond to calls of trespass and that people have to resort to policing their own area.


It's not going to end well:(

These people are dangerous. Two friends in North County Dublin were lucky not to have been killed in separate incidences.

Ring the gardai, give them the address and say there’s going to be a shooting and hang up.

afraid so, they'd nearly need to have a sheep in their mouth.
Apparently guards have no power to put trespassers off your land unless they're doing harm

The law says worrying or about to worry and there’s no definition of worrying

They don't give a fiddlers, tbh. Any house around the general area will do fine, word will get back to the lads that slashed the tires.

Its high time the law was changed in this country regarding Trespass.
As I understand it, trespass does not actually exist in law until you can prove that a criminal act is about to be committed.
Time to lobby some enterprising TD's to bring a bill before Cabinet to change that.

when a telephone had to be physically put back on their receiver to end the call that was called hanging up, sometimes it was done abruptly and with force to end a call suddenly

It didn't say " theres going to be a shooting and a hang up"
It said "theres going to be a shooting and hang up"

Our happy bunch in New Zealand, hard to believe we were the other side of the world a month ago.

This was a lovely farm, environment very important to this farmer, they have won awards for their farming and care of the environment.
They have a lovely website too if you have a few minutes,
they were on our farm last year and of course said to call if we're in the area so we arrived with twelve

I had a great aunt that lived in England during ww2, she said that the sound of the doodlebugs(v1) was horrible but kind of comforting because it only fell when the engine stopped.

Aunt of my wife lived through it there too

Forever more she hoarded tinned food “just in case”, interesting how it affected people

Hi guys. Any ideas of where I could buy a cheap tractor seat? It's for a case 885. Are they fairly generic or would it have to be the right one for each tractor ? I want as cheap as possible to be honest-it's just to give my dad a bit more comfort as that's "his" tractor!! Saw some on amazon but just don't know if they fit most tractors...

TheFarrier

Most tractor spares places would have universal seats, fitting them can take some ingenuity but they do offer better comfort and shock absorption than a knackered old seat

blue5000

Sparex on ebay are good value, something like this

There's cheaper one available.

You could try quality tractor parts in mullingar. They seem to supply a lot of places.

They're based to the east of Limerick city and seem to have a good selection.

My two pence would be buy a good seat. Like good shoes and a good mattress, a good seat in a tractor wouldn't be a luxury in my view.

Now that the case is over....


Was O'Mahony's use of a crowbanger normal or would you normally not put one so close to another's residence?

It wouldn't be normal, maybe use it in daylight hours for a short while, but not 100 mtrs from a house,
Ferris must've been subjected to an awful time, Guards wouldn't do anything seemingly, it's them that should be in jail, I feel reallly sorry for him

Nekarsulm

The fact that he (O Mahony) had an illegally held shotgun in the car was more of less glossed over.
He seemingly had his own one lifted by the Gardai after firing at hill walkers, and would never have got a licence again.

Ya it could of ended up the other way round fairly quickly I’d say.

Surely dismantling the crow banger at nighttime would have been the easy option. Savage what Ferris did.

Well the current one is fairly painful but TBH I think dad is so used to it he doesn't even notice it. TBH it's a fairly battered tractor so I don't really want to spend a fortune as it won't be used as much as this is dads tractor and he just tips around with it. I saw some for around 100 which I'd be happy with but am I safe in that will most seats fit it?

Ferris has taken/stolen it out of its field before, and the Gardai found it in Ferris's shed....

There was talk of firing at Dept Social Welfare staff on Liveline today too.

Think it was daylight hours only, every 4.5 minutes.
