    Will we have a picture of animals out "spring" grazing on the journal this week.
    Last years was fairly accurate of the country with the lad grazing his cows last week of January when a lot of the country was underwater.

    The flywheel on my Passat went kaput yesterday . Im in Northern Ireland so too far from hom to attempt to nurse it home.

    Are you at Binghams? I'm only a mile up the road at work if you need a lift :D Try Quiggs, VW / Audi breakers 028 29571257 Malachy will certainly have something to sort you out.

    Emigrant, those farmer sons complaining about farm upkeep by their parents. Maybe they should consider that the parents diverted funds from the upkeep of the farm to fund their education.

    Can't remember where anyone had emigrated to, they were showing three that had come back to ireland
    He actually started up a milk processing plant.....they called it farming in the intro.
    He seems to have started with a milk round and then bought it out and now he's buying milk himself and putting it in glass bottles without taking the good bits out of the milk.

    I saw a lad at work the last day using green high viz coloured power leads , thought they were a great job to be seen and not to be taken by anyone else by mistake either

    OH was on red cow interchange at 6am this morning, there were 2 loaded artic car transporters racing each other :eek: Oh pulled over and let them at it, one of them stalled in the middle of the road, so so dangerous. Imagine the value of the cars on the 2 transporters to be at that messing
