    Going by the story line of many films I've seen, I'm going to win the lotto :D:D

    Don't forget us when you do ! I was meant to be going to a stag in Carrick tonight but I must be getting old cos I woke up this morning and just thought "I can't do it " , I might chance a pint Sunday evening when they're home and quieter !

    I'm not a big fan of it for going out. I must be getting old but it's way too rowdy and every place is packed!

    Would ye spread pig slurry on newly reseeded ground? The ground conditions are fine. Think of 2k gallons an acre

    Had a fifteen month old bullock with pnuemonia this evening. He had a temperature of 106, the Vet said he was on fire.
    He still managed to jump a gate when he saw the vet coming tho.

    They are in NZ for years. Good bit of kit but at €40,000 I'd say he won't sell to many.

    I'm so disappointed now,:( I thought Kovu had won the euromillions when I woke up this morning. Was all excited about heading to Leitreim for a PALLET of 0 7 30, not a bag! Best of luck, hopefully we'll all get a night out now!

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Im really beginning to hate these fecking cyclists, with over 10k cycling the ring of kerry today you could hardly move on the road.
    And the amount of fatsos on bikes is frightening. And the best of gear by um. They mustn't be knocking to much work outta them fancy bikes. The Deli counters will be well empty tis evening in South kerry.

    More senior figures sprinting for the door in Teagasc according to the ifj. Last one out, turn off the lights there. An organisation of pensioners and planners.

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

    I was all ready to drive to Kilkenny to collect a ram this morning, trailer lights working, full of petrol, everything sorted.

    Sit in and turn the key.......NOTHING.

    Totally dead.

    I can't see much wrong and the guy who services the car is gone for the day:(

    Bucket anyway:mad:

    It's a PITA, spent most of yesterday with a mini digger digging corner posts and digging trenches where water lodges in gateways due to pans and was trying to get the trailer sorted and organise bales to be brought in at the same time.

    Milking late every night with the last week trying to get stuff sorted before heading off for a few days and today was the only free day left and I like having the ram around for a month before tupping to let him get sorted with the other ram and whatever bugs he wouldn't be used to before letting him off.

    I suppose there is some reason I'm not supposed to go today. I'm sure I can find something to do to pass the day:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,292 ✭✭✭✭Nekarsulm


    Could be something simple like the light in the boot staying on, or a central locking malfunction. Have you a spare battery? Or try a jump start .

    That's a handy distance to go for a ram (I think you based in Kerry?)
