Dairy Chitchat 4, an udder new thread.

When there's money and a fall out involved things tend to get fairly bad pretty quickly 🙃 😬😬😬😬

Once the legal crowd get involved they can drive the thing mad aswell. Dirty shower of bastards. Break ups are tough

It didn't. Too far upstream..non chemical.

Lack of water in the river could be the cause of NC woes, but may have also magnified the damage caused by whatever irritant that has made its way to the river.

I wonder what usually happens when a farmer and his wife would get divorced. Like I’ve never once heard of a farm having to be sold because the wife got half or anything remotely like that

I was too young to vote in the divorce referendum back in the 1990’s but if I had voted it would have been a definite no. A lot of people don’t know what best to do with themselves now. They all want to be like the crowd they see on TV and social media, all that shïte has people driven mad 😂😂

I've seen farms put in real hardship, farmer in rented accomadation, wife getting a salary from him plus a substantial lump sum. even in the 70s a friend was put in that position.

You definitely treat your partner right in a marriage or you pay the price and rightly so.

I’d put it down to us being such good catches 🤣

it probably wasn't but do you want anything agricultural related being mentioned in the same sentence as fish kill.

It doesn't effect me as I'm not in derogation, but it will be another stick to beat it with

In that scenario I think the man should have completely blocked the sale the exact same as if it was a bank sale and made it clear that the goodwill wasn’t going with it. Let anyone try buy it then and deal with the consequences if they want to throw the rightful owner out onto the road. The world has gone mad

Ya rightful owner, as in the person who owned it before a court forced them to sell it. “Rightful owner” 👍🏼

Well for context Whelan, my own wife came out of a farm much the same size as my own. She’s got siblings and most certainly won’t be getting it, but if she did get her family farm and if we did split up - I most certainly wouldn’t be forcing any of it to be sold. No matter how badly off I’d be.

Ya you’re dead right, we should all stop paying our loans of course.

There was an auction around here before I was born. A very nice and hard working family ran into a bit of trouble with the bank. The bank organised an auction, all the neighbours went in to support the family. Long story short - the “rightful owner” of the farm stood up at the beginning of the auction and told everyone “anyone who buys my farm today I’m gonna get a shotgun and blow a hole this size in you” as he held his hands up and made a big circle with them. Another man got up then as the bankers were about to start their auction and informed them the room was packed because they were all there to support the family - the bankers thought everyone was there to bid on the farm 😂😂

Personally I think that’s one auction that was handled very well

Jaysus some mad opinions here last few days ….and some backward old fashioned ones at tgat …..where there’s land and assets and money gloves go off with lots …..I’m out other side now of a settlement involving my mother and siblings …..they got unbelievably greedy and basically cornered me into agreeing to things I didn’t want to and wasn’t comfortable with …I had little choice tho ….i havnt talked to my brother in nearly a year and dont foresee it changing and pass my other siblings and mother because I have to ….it pisses me off not talking to them but after what they forced on me relationships will stay strained …been left with a nice financial noose for foreseeable too and siblings walk away commitment free ….probably said more than I should here but fook it …good to vent sometimes

yup….wont go into much more but no doubt others here are in same boat ….if I had to hear well you got the farm one more time I’d of flipped …farm came with commitment to my parents which is ok but nothing about been put through college …been giving few quid when married ,buying there house …was landed with buying out parents house to pay off siblings …leave mother few quid but all the **** after left me sour taste h…after doing everything above I’ve still to cover my mothers full rent in fookin cash which can’t go through accounts…no one better than family to ride you
