    TB test failed here this morning. Vet gone about an hour and a half ago. Just got stock sorted and in for the breakfast now. Cow who went out of her milk for no apparent reason other than an extended lactation about a month ago went down. Only just but seeing as we were locked up due to an animal we sold last autumn showing lesions in the factory a month ago we'd still be locked up and this girl potentially polluting the place for the next sixty days while we waited for a retest we just knocked her. First loss best loss.

    There were a few among the milkers with substantial lumps but all within the tolerances. We'll insist on all of these being blooded.
    was saying this to my dad, we had tb problems years ago, few reactors each test , my dad insisted on bloods for the rest of the cows, a good few came back positive. One red cow which had passed every tb skin test was that bad she went straight to the skip, hope you get sorted

    i had bought their meal thingies, popcorn, jellies and popcorn in the cinema, had a 2litre bottle of diet coke-bought for 1.49 in dealz- and some grapes for me and to top up their drinks. He took the bag off me and gave it back to me after film, medium diet coke cost me 3.95:eek::eek:

    Just after looking at a load of Temple Grandin videos on youtube, very interesting and loads of common sense, her biggest concern is non slip flooring, it was interesting to hear that but again thinking about it it makes sense. It's all about the simple things.

    Reading your comment reminded me of when I was a youngster and sitting up with my family to watch the biggest fight in the history of boxing at that time :)
    RTE showed The Deer Hunter (first showing) to fill in the hours before the fight was televised.
    I remember the film but cannot remember the bout or who was involved. My Mam was and still is a great boxing/GAA/national hunt and greyhound supporter at 88 years of age.

    I remember the night well. I was 9. And stayed up. Ali Vs Leon Spinks 1978!

    Thanks for that GC. I thought it was probably Ali as my Mam was a great fan.
    I was 12 at the time and the "baby" in the house and remember my Mam giving out about me watching the Deer Hunter :)
    In order to wile away the hours my Mam had decided to bake. Thankfully she was busy in the kitchen making pastry and apple tarts and didn't see most of the film.

    They do, and ya can't even use kids as sweetie mules either, they'll insist on looking in bags etc. and if you don't let them, no entry. Probably the main reason I don't bother going any more as the cost of edibles in there is stupid.

    Sorry I was wrong above, as it's been a while since I was in. They insist on you leaving any half decent sized bags in their lockers.

    Herself brings a large handbag and plenty of goodies and we've never been stopped. They can't look in your handbag, but they have the right to refuse entry, which would be fairly Embarrassing too.

    Yeah the stuff she talks about is all fairly simple really when you think about it! The vids a certainly worth the look! I watched a lot of them just to see some of the clever little bits they have in the crushes and races, stuff like the backing gates that only come in a small amount from each side of the crush rather than a long bar like they're all trying to sell here!


    On the cinema taking stuff saw a great pic the other day of how to sneak stuff in! They packed it all into a shoe box! All you'd need is a fresh box and a clean carrier bag from whatever shop in the centre sells shoes!!

    I've got more and more into it in the last few years - great to see a new name on the trophy too. A very likeable lad who won it the hard way beating greats like O'Sullivan etc. along the way.
