    I was in it. I thought it was decent enough without being anything special.

    I like Bru if I'm out that way.

    A taxi driver told me a few months ago to put every spare penny I had into them :rolleyes: I dont have any spare pennies so I never even looked into them but when every dog on the street knows about these things its usually too late to make anything out of them or its a pyramid scheme type of job

    Another powerful day here again Cows in the field all the cattle fed. Sitting down to the brekkie and then off to the park for the league final. The ease of things when the weather is decent.

    was drizzling here earlier, but sun out now, heading up to silage ground with kids to move fence for cows for tomorrow, half tempted to leave cows out tonight

    Beginning to think of leaving mine out at night as well... just waiting for the last of the Springers.

    Fresh grass during the day and a deep straw shed at night are a messy combination...

    MIne are out day and night even though there is little grass there is more to eat in the field than on the bare concrete in the shed.

    I had some heifers that had access to a shed during the winter, most days they'd be in and out but for the last week they haven't come near it. Had a few cows in another pen that got out and haven't been back since either. If they're happy I leave them at it!

    Had mine break across the tape into silage ground afew wks bck, even with the quad it was hardship getting them back. I'm flat to the boards doing athletics at the min but even still, sprinting back and forward after cows is hard work, great for helping build up fitness in fairness so its all good!

    whats your distance Timmaay?
