Farming Youtubers

He said he was dealing with solicitors letters. What a grabbing kunt she sounded like

Plenty stories like it all over the country my great grand father made no will my grandfathers sister was married away to another farmer he pushed her to contest my grandfather farming away the land after their father passed ended up selling the whole place, my grandfather managed to buy back just less than half of what he was farming drove him half mad and he died a young man. Caused a lot of divide in that generation but a valuable lesson for the following generation.

Heard of a case where a married woman contested a will of a bachelor farmer who she used to visit. The bachelor had red hair and her child had red hair. She remained happily married through everything. When there's land and money involved. Everything and anything does be on the table for some people.

Very sad case going on here locally. Don't want to give details, but a will was made and relatives that got nothing are going to contest it. This means bringing it to the high court. It's a small farm so the resulting legal fees would mean that a big chunk of the land would have to be sold anyway to defend it. The guy that it was all left to, has been advised by his solicitor to sell the bulk of the land to keep them happy.

He worked the land all his life and they did absolutely nothing. If it was me, I think I'd go through them for a shortcut.

A will isn't as legally binding as you think. I always thought it was, but this case really opened my eyes. You can contest a will for example, under the 1965 Successions Act. Under that act a spose or partner is entitled to 1/3 of the estate.

"A spouse or Civil Partner has rights under the Succession Act 1965, s111/A. They’re entitled to one-third of their partner’s estate."

Ah I think if there's a big enough estate and there's several family members that would have a strong claim to the estate if the Will was challenged then it's recommended by some solicitors to remember them in the Will and leave about 5k to each of them minumum so that they have been reasonably provided for.

Regarding the the 2 old fellas in the video, I was thinking if the land was registered in both their names as joint tenants then the surviving brother would be entitled to be registered as sole owner of the property upon the passing of his brother. If they were tenant in common owners of a half share each for example then she might have a case if she was actually his daughter.

I don't know why everyone is so condescending about those 2 brothers. Plenty of the old generation were like that. Hard work and a daily routine filled their day. They may not have a great formal education but they were wise enough to survive. Those types were great crack too, when you got to know them.

You can find everything on the Internet, from a needle to an anchor.

The 2 buyos in the middle suspiciously fat.

Given the time period wouldnt the women the brother had the child with of in all likeyhood ended up in a magdalena laundry with the child adopted/sold by the nuns?

Was a nasty act back in times to pull a one nighter on the man's part and walk away when the above happend and not marry the women in question

I always thought putting dead bushes into a hedge will kill off a hedge.

lovely block of land he has rented .what u wouldn’t do to own a block like that

Had anyone heard that word Phil used for a boundary hedge shared with a neighbour? Mern he spelled it as.

Fed by farmers podcast is done by the fella off the sheep game. There's a very good one with the hoof gp. Very interesting back story and goes into how much many he made from YouTube etc. Very successful man. Does anyone know anyone that did his online hoof trimming course?

He's pronounced it differently to how I've heard it, he's said Merrin.

It's officially mearing, and it's in the dictionary so not a uncommon term

Never heard the term here around Clare.
