SECURITY & PRIVACY:
An issue has been brought to our attention regarding vehicle registration numbers visible in photographs, where the criminally inclined trawl the Internet looking for vehicles similar to their own, clone the number plates, and head off merrily accruing penalty points, not paying toll fees, and leaving filling stations without paying, leaving the unfortunate owner of the genuine vehicle having to deal with the Gardaí as they investigate these matters.
This is likely much more of an issue on the big car selling websites, but it might be good practice to either obscure the number plate or not include it in the first place if you post a picture of your vehicle here.
Obviously, don't post such details of other peoples' vehicles.

We've modified the forum Charter regarding this and a couple of other items to do with photographs/scans, see HERE.

If anyone want any of their old photos deleted, give the mods a shout by PM.

I'm not sure if we have such a thread already, though I might start one, see if it goes anywhere.



Feeding the savages this morning. Mixed between some old dears and ner'do wells kept in over the Winter and the rest of the flock who have been in off the hill for about two weeks now. Got more older ewes this year than I'd ideally like, my own fault for selling lambs two/three years ago that I shouldn't have to fit in with REPS numbers

Being fed about 3/4lbs of ewe & lamb ration per day in one feed at the moment. If I up it to 1lbs per head I'll split the feed into morning & evening feeds. Right now, nothing is separated nor scanned. In the future I hope to be able to do this, but it'll require new fences and the cash isn't in the kitty at the moment.

So, they will lamb upside of the fence next to the troughs. As they lamb I'll move them down below which is saved for grass, growing OK at the moment, I'm happy with progress there as long as it continues. Next big job of work below side the fence is to split it in half with a new fence. Then I can start controlling the creeping thistles once the ewes & lambs move from one block to the other.

All ewes have got their booster of Heptevac P+. Lambs will get numbered, spectam, and have navels dipped in iodine as I move them from top to bottom.

Lots to do!

Got a link? I had no inclination of making this thread a sticky, unless it were to become popular enough to justify it tbh. Only so much space at the top of any page, becomes clogged up quite quickly.

ewes appear to be in good nick, hope lambing goes well,

the night frosts don't seem to affect you as much as further inland , all the hills around here are going off colour last week or so

If it becomes popular, then I'm sure we'll be able to look at the various stickies and see can it be fitted in. Also, may change the thread to more general farming photos which could encompass livestock and other farming activities maybe. But, there's just the one photo here at the minute, get posting

Sure is! Can see dolphins in the bay sometimes as well.

I just need to get some Spectam and a couple of other bits and pieces and my gear should be complete. If the weather is like it is now I'll be delighted. Figure lambs can take cold, or wet, but not both.

We're a lot milder here than even a few miles inland. Dad has land spread out across the area, one place can be white with frost when my place wouldn't have a touch at all. Problem is there's not much relief from the wind in off the sea, different inland with shelter belts etc to take the edge off it a bit.

That's the Atlantic, next stop Kerry, or Brazil We can see Mt Brandon some days off on the horizon.

I'll cheat here and direct you to two different ways of doing it posted in the Shooting section, both work, I use the Photobucket one. Complete guides with photos and all
