Has every one seen the Slurry Pits thread? AKA "openstreetmap.org mapping our farm buildings including usage thread" https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058219361/slurry-pits
I'm wondering if maybe more of us could voice our opinions on the matter in that thread, there are 2 representatives claiming to be from openstreetmap.org posting there too.
@Say my name thinks we should start another thread in legal discussion, I'm leaning towards there being grounds for a complaint to the DPC. I know sometimes I'm an opinionated ass but I think there are genuine privacy and security issues here that could potentially affect any/all of us.
Great...................
Until now I was just worried about my wells going dry 😯. Thanks _Brian
Similar problem in Gypsum industry is what caused the ground collapsing above the mines, huge areas still cordoned off above them.
Yes, the only train currently traveling through Navan is from Tara Mines.
Is it from there the trains would be drawing when you go on the trim road out of navan and where would they be going?
Still the largest Zinc mine in Europe as far as I know. There's enough ore for many years to come the vein stretches from Navan to Tullamore and beyond.
Jaysus, I didn’t even know tara mines was still open?
I see Tara mines is shut down due to the mine flooding after they hit water while drilling a ventilation shaft.
Power is off in the area too, not sure if that's related.
Anyone recommend a good Shri accountant in Clare area? I’m looking for someone to advise in gerneral as I’m hoping to take over farm early next year so want it started right. Are ifac any good? I know they’re around €1000+vat
Hope your right
I think they find it very hard to pull the far lane or the putter lane on motorway if the road is anyway busy
Supervalu have rashers called Nakd truth i think it is, similar packaging and a lovely rasher and all nitrate free.
You'd get away with 5km maybe 8km over at a push.
There's a few kms then in the difference on purpose in the speedometer on car and your actual speed. You'd see the difference if you've google maps on when driving.
You may ..be lucky...??
Watching the postman myself for the past while 🙄
Passed a speed van this evening at about 15 km/hr over the limit. Be very surprised if I escape even though there was some traffic coming the opposite way and might have gotten between me and the van as he was on the far hard shoulder.
Fantastic day for the end of November, got a ton done.
Ya sure that was always the case with them really. He won't see too much action next year, I'll try him on 2 or 3 good red lim cows and see how he goes.
She's nearly worse than me. I'll going to move on the charolais as well next year I'd say. Just too much trouble with him. Kinda need three bulls to keep everything served because the farm is so fragmented.
A proper Stud of bulls so. What did the boss say when you told her you had another one bought?? The windows for the house will have to wait a while longer.
Ya and a lim aswell. Sim is in a different herd number tho and don't want to be mixing.
He looks a right one and I'd agree that he looks to have lots of power and scope without being a total block of muscle. I'd know very little about blues as there very much a minority locally. The biggest reservation I'd have about them after calving is that an average BB bred animal isn't as saleable around here as a comparable CH or even a LM.
I thought it was very well ran yesterday and a credit to all involved. It was nice that F. McGowan got to sell the highest priced lot himself for a change, it's a great achievement for them.
No, a friend had a heifer up there and I brought him home in his trailer.
Do you still have the Charolais and Simmental bulls?
Do you bring the trailer, just in case?
Hoping he'll bull a few cows in time. There's a lot of blue in him, azl X imperial X epi X rocky. Just thought he was very right in the legs and had plenty size and length without being extremely muscled like some of them. Hadn't intended buying anything when I was heading up. Same story every time I go to a mart though 🙈
It’s really an unnecessary product.
we would occasionally have a dinner with no meat but it would be made up of fresh cut vegetables and beans rather than some hyper processed rubbish with god knows what in it.
Well done, what's the plan for him? There was some cracking stock on display and a great atmosphere. I always enjoy it although I'm strictly a spectator, it would be a culture shock for both of us if I bought something of that calibre. A friend of mine bought a cracking SIM heifer for €1650, she must be the guts of 600kg and I think she'd cost the most of it anyway atm.
They might - if it was displayed in the fruit and veg section. You wouldn't expect to see a vegan/vegetarian shopping in the meat aisle.
His pic needs a caption. " Does my bum look big in this "
He's lovely - best of luck with him
My first time going and really enjoyed it. Some stock on display. Ended up buying a bull 🙄
