    Know mine and OH's along with my pps no, my two sons, and OH's.
    They rattle around my brain along with other mundane numbers like bank accounts, wheelie bin ID numbers, jeeps/vans/tractors/lorry reg numbers, a huge quantity of tag numbers - last 4 digits, numerous telephone numbers etc :o

    TBH I will either have to quote them or write them a few times before they sink in. I have 4 to remember. All three begin with 1 letter & 2 numbers, two of them have letter number letter number while the third has letter letter number number and the forth has letter number number number.
    Phew I'm tired after typing them let alone trying to remember them.

    Just a quick question regarding herd numbers, my father retired from farming way back in 98 but he still owns the land, unfortunately he had to give up his herd number to get some sort of pension (I'm not sure of the exact details). Now the money from the retirement scheme ran out in about 2008 I think so I was wondering is there any way of getting the herd number back or would he have to go through inspections and all sorts?
