Doing some fencing with polywire, joining 2 rolls, do you just knot or is there a better method?

Unbelievable. The feckin island wasn't on the helicopters database maps.
An island 230 feet high, with cloud cover under 300 feet, and a chopper flying at 220 feet.

I didn't see Primetime but are they saying that the helicopter crashed into the island cause their instruments didn't know it was there.

Thats basically what is claimed.
The helicopter should also have been receiving an electronic beacon from the lighthouse irrespective of the electronic maps.

The actual light flashes every 14 seconds, but thats not very often when your flying in poor visibility at night at 130 miles an hour.

Fucckers can spot an overgrown hedgerow and mark it out from payments.. "there's a lump of an island - lets not bother with that!"

Am I weird? I let three cows and October calves away to grass yesterday and lastnight popped down to see them at 11.30 pm after work and must have been watching the young calves grazing away the first spring grass for at least 20 mins , they were loving it as we the heifers.. Very therapeutic or am I just weird! Lovely to see them full

Your not alone there SonnyBill, I did the exact same last weekend when we let all the stock out. Just a wonderful sight to see them tearing around the place and then sitting in the sun:)

Yeah knot it, but like tying your laces, cross the wires the opposite way the second time to stop it pulling open.

We got a text yesterday from kids secondary school about an app called SimSimi this app has the potential to cause bullying any student found with it on their phone will get an automatic 2 day suspension. Might bean idea to ask your kids have they got it

That's a funny move.
I looked it up there and it's an Artificial intelligent chat where each user chats to the AI rather than to each other. Banning it is a strange move, it's no more likely to be used for bullying than text, viber or Snapchat.
I must download it and see how it works.

Seems you can 'teach' it responses to questions when it doesn't know an answer. So for example I can ask simsimi 'Do you like Reggie?' and it probably won't know how to respond and will say that. But I can teach it to answer 'Reggie is lovely/Reggie is a buttface' and that will be the programmed answer next time someone asks.

*Reggie is not a buttface.

Yes from what I can gather if you say something about someone it will cme up when you if put in a search of their name. A few racist comments etc were doing the rounds. Not just in our school but in others too.

Great satisfaction after spending the day fixing up paddocks to get a good shock on the fence tester when you plug the fencer back in

Yea.
I downloaded it there.

So you can teach it responses to particular phrases, access is anonymous so no knowing who entered the stuff.

Ye, must be bad enough if they are threatening suspensions for anyone using it. Just a heads up to watch out for it

I was letting cattle from one field to another earlier and I had to open the electric fence. The gateway to the field was very mucky and I was only wearing my work boots so I decided to slip under the electric fence and walk a very narrow 4" strip along the top of the ditch. Well feck it anyway but didn't the ground give away and I started to slip into the ditch which has about 8 inches of water.
Decision time - do ye grab the fence or get wet feet :eek:

















My work boots are still drying out by the range

LOL:D


Even after I disconnect the fenceline I'm working on, I still check it for current even though I know there isn't any on it.

One shock too many over the years:rolleyes:
