    Would expanding foam do to seal the holes after the whirly bars in the walls of a slatted tank?

    No it would rot out I'd say. Bit of chemical grout but be the job

    Got a lad to clean my windows and clean out the gutters this morning. €135 for 80 minutes work. I think I'll become a window cleaner. That was only the outside of the windows

    When you're a farmer everyone seems expensive. You could have offered him your own hourly rate for a laugh

    Currently using the old version of the Cooper Discoverer AT3 on the LandCruiser and very happy with them. Either 49 or 56K moles on the ones I'm replacing (I think it's 56K). The old pattern is no longer available and the local garage is stocking Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S instead. Pattern seems similar. In fact, comparing them I can't find a difference.

    Farmers love to bargain. I see the old boy thinks anyone doing a job is robbing dear. Unless it's machinery related and money will flow!

    I had a lad in today to give me a hand with tidying up gates and pens and put up a few lights. One pen in particular is a right pain so we let out the weanlings there into a holding yard while we hung gates properly, all because one tool of a weanling keeps getting out or getting stuck.

    At the job since 10 this morning and no cattle fed and I was getting things sorted for my man and helping him when needed.

    Anyway, got the lights fixed and gates hung and he left to sort a few things for herself in the house. Fed the cattle and let the weanlings back into the shed when I noticed a missed call from a neighbour, animal in a neighbours field:(

    Checked the weanling pen and my man was missing. He must have found a way out of the holding pen, the fecker:mad:

    On another subject, anybody looking for a weanling bull to buy?:pac:

    Paid up remaining bills I had for the year today. Good to get it done. Good to have everyone that does work for me during the year sorted too before the Christmas. Now, if people would extend the same courtesy to me it would be great.
