Some nice fried soda bread would top it off the finest. One unintended consequence of the lockdown is theres more time for cooking and consequently eating in recent months. On an unrelated note someone has been swapping out my trousers for a size smaller lately. I'll need to work off the increase over the summer.

The one positive of OH been laid up for the past 7 weeks is that I've lost about a stone and a half cause I'm flat out most days in the yard.

Yup. It's the short pair of initials, he snuck in on the list and no one noticed.


In seriousness, it's great to have a 'full team' as we are now finished recruiting. The CMods allowed us one more than we asked for.

The idea is to have a team of mods whose interest spans the full scope of the forum. At times of the year when it's 'full on', we each have to only read what interests us, which may be all you've time for.

So, I'd like to thank the three lads for stepping up and hope they'll have very little to do.

(As an aside, and with a bit of chest-thumping, I can say that when we went looking and starting putting names together, we found we had a lot of good posters to choose from. That says a lot about the forum and the sense of community it engenders.)

In fairness she is a great mother to Harvey. It can't be easy. I know she has her faults but his dad hasn't stepped up from day 1.

Can we place bets ? Obviously I'd bet on the Dub

Edit, no point you being moderator WC you'd probably delete the whole forum

Just seen we have a visitor. Notably one has asked asking why "farmers" are so obsessed with checking a certain forum ....

You couldn't make it up tbh.

A pic of the listerosis cow during the week. We let her and her comrades out into a enclosed paddock last week with Daisy. They have access to a small dry bedded shed but it doesn't have a feed barrier so we put up the mix under the electric fence.

I really don't understand that mentality. It's good to talk and discuss these things from different perspectives and points of view. No point in everyone being of the same opinion as then a forum is just a reference library of links and copied text from Internet sites.

Got it - thought you were being enigmatic

It's a great tribute that not one but three mods were needed to replace Buford

You've set a high bar greysides

In fairness give the new Mods a chance.

It's hard to accept the circumstances as to why the Sheriff left but we are where we are now :mad:

I turned over a new leaf on that front last summer - do 30 push ups before bed every night and managed to lose nearly 2 stone in 2 months. Giving up the beer and generally eating better last year helped too

Hi Folks....
Just wondering have any of ye got NCT done lately?.......have it this morning after 9am....it’s around -2 deg outside,windy and lashing rain!!

Does common sense prevail during this kind of bad weather or due to Covid restrictions do you have to wait outside in the elements while your car is tested rather than in the normal ‘waiting area’ which seems to be off limits going by the current NCT guidelines?

Want to get the car done but don’t want to be drenched and frozen while waiting out in rain while test is underway.....thanks for any replies in next hour or hour and a bit.

Man up and dress well, I brought a good wet suit and went for a long walk....... safer than going into the waiting room anyway
