    its all about fine lines really and a small bit of luck

    had cow starting to get sick at 3am last night, took her off slats and into creep,
    no sign water bag so decided to leave her for a while, came back up at 5 am and a monster bb bull calf stuck at the hips, another 20 mins and would have lost him, such a lump of a calf

    2 to go, thank fcuk

    It's cheaper than going to a gp or physio anyway:pac:

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Tis a grand day here - and it started out with me thinking "feck it, tis fine, I wish I was at home, I have a load of stuff I could be doing"

    Then it changed to "God, tis a grand day, I wish I was in some beer garden with the lads drinking pints"

    Now, I dunno what to do after work... I have a feeling it'll be the bare minimum of farmwork, and then a few drinks :)
