Cuckoo in Leitrim today

All in the shed now (bar Ropeburn cow, the bitch!) are overdue or time up in the next week so we're ahead of normal schedule for once.

Is fencing posts, wire and labour involved in erecting fencing (if using a contractor) deemed a a capital expenditure or allowable expense ?

I’ve a pbr bull on Dd, price and all...not cheap not dear....I would move on the price. Anyway not as much as a call...... anyone else with bulls for sale in a similar situation?

Btw, I know the lockdown isn’t helping and cash is scarce and the country is full of bullsðŸ˜—:D

Same as
Few call’s, some afraid to visit with lock down
Others saying price is too high or I’m too far away

Miss the sales

The video below is part 2 of a couple of webinars going on atm on GHG production in Agriculture. About an hour long and there's an earlier one I haven't found yet.

That link above wouldn't work for me on the phone nor the tablet.

I found the first one though. Just searched teagasc and GHG on YouTube.

Interesting alright. It should be all incentivised for the common good to really make progress.
Or at least some other formula that ticks all boxes .ie. maintain production, improve soil health, drawdown more carbon, improve water and air emissions, bring in more money.

Used some easter egg hunt chocolate to make this . We decided no eggs between families this year and gave a donation to the samaritans. They were very good to my sister last year. Daughter and youngest lad made this

Looks nice.
Hope your sister is continuing to do well.

Was thinking earlier wouldn't it be awful to lose someone close to you during the pandemic. You wouldn't be able to grieve properly not having a normal wake/ funeral/ burial. God love anyone going through it at the moment.

For my brothers little boys cremation, there was him, his wife and their 3yo, they just sat a while to say goodbye.None of us allowed. Although we called to the house and all stood in the garden and released a dove as they left for the crematorium. Our priest is cocooning due to age and blessed the coffin in his driveway.

The more time goes on the more I realise we’re an odd crew here.

Last Easter egg from last year was eaten only about a month ago.

Not an egg opened today, girls never even mentioned eating one.

We had a lash of fresh cake made here by the eldest for an online competition, which she won.

When a genuine buyer sees it they know. The “x for cash today” idiots can be dispatched quickly. Funniest I had was a guy ring up and offer a quarter of the asking price for cash “if your stuck”

It's probably better not to respond but...

I can nearly understand why lads don't bother. Have an item on dd at the moment reasonably enough priced and I'm plagued with pricks all day offering me feck all for it. Fair annoying.

Saw a tweet earlier from a guy on the U.K. his wife was in a nursing home convalescing as she has a medical condition in late 50’s.

She has contracted Covid19, he can’t visit and they said they would ring when she dies.

A friend’s mother has passed away of non Covid19 illness in hospital so at least they were with her. No funeral though. Straight from funeral home to burial with no more than ten people. It’s so tough.

A recently retired work colleague of my partner died during the week. They can't do anything, outside the 2km, no wake, no visiting, no mass, no funeral. It's another type of emptiness on top of grief.

I've had to finish my theological course via email and Zoom conference calls.
We would hold our hand up, like used to do in school, and the leader would give the go-ahead to talk. It gets mad if everyone starts to talk at the same time. Takes a bit of practice, especially if the discussion gets heated.

I'm part of an online course, about half way through it at the moment. We've used two different pieces of meeting software due to some teething problems. As you say there's a raised hand button which alerts the meeting administrator that someone has a question. This medium of communication wouldn't work otherwise, without this feature it'd resemble the tonight show on virgin media.

Couldn't get a seat in the local council election and now a TD. Did she pay her rent arrears yet?

Read some article a few weeks back that said the organisation she owed the rent to no longer exists/ operates :rolleyes: apparently she's going donating whatever she owes in arrears to a charity for the homeless or something
