Got home and the soliciter had dropped out paperwork on my first bit of ground i will have bought. So from this week on i will be whingeing about repayments. Great satisfaction in a bit of hardship.

Was told that the last two calves I bought were bid up by the dealer selling them . I'm happy with the price but didn't notice his name on the board, should it have been ?
