    You should have had.
    I was in bed one night about 11 fast asleep and my cousin called my mobile, I cut the nose off him. Next morning I phoned him at 5.45 and his response was 'message received'!!
    I know a stud farm manager and his main gripe isn't the long hours they work, it's the even longer hours clients ring him at! The night owls ring at any hour and the early birds the same! I don't know why he doesn't turn the phone off but the horsey industry is funny. They work like dogs for no money:rolleyes:

    This lad is on the guinness mostly aswell but he had two days done on it when he got the second wind and switched to cider . Big Bucket is his nickname , I dont know is it because of him drinking buckets or the fact that he starts telling everyone about the size of the bucket on the his digger when he is loaded .

    The lad I know is a digger driver aswell. Must be genetic

    Got all the sheep dosed with cobalt. Sprayed a couple of acres for rushed and thistles. Lovely evening for doing a bit of work. All this reading of lads going drinking is making me thirsty.

    The ol cider bug is a divil alright :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,433 ✭✭✭darragh_haven


    The auld fella just rang. All on about silage and what fields to cut and what way to cut it. I'll have to bring a stainless steel bucket with me cos I'm in bits. I have a vague recollection of one of the lads buying a round of double brandy and coke in the night club and me thinking it was a great idea.
    Ring the knackery and put me down. ....

    Anyone with notions of going into dairy bull beef would want to have given the day with me yesterday.

    Up at 6 bells and decide to tip down to an out-farm only to greeted by chaos. 3 separate groups (65 total) all mixed, kickin the sh*te out of each other, pulling up every fence and generally wrecking the place.
    Que 12 hours straight of sorting, searching among furs, fencing and patching up the "casualties".
    Arrive back to the home-place and still a hape of work to be done there, so 10mins devouring a few chips in the jeep and off I roll again. Moved the last strip wire at half 12 last night. The phrase "Busy fool" comes to mind:rolleyes:

    Hitting the sauce today, dont care how sick I am tomorrow

    We've been holding a tribunal all morning trying to figure out which one of us deserves the kick in the hole.

    Lots of conspiracy theories flying around as to what actually happened but one wire was probably knocked first and once the shock dips below 2k volts the boys think "F*ck this, lets trash the gaf"

    Bullocks broke out this morning too, somehow they managed to open 2 gates although the first gate ud swear someone opened it for them the way it was thrown
