    I think its still done, have to find someone licensed though, cops will usually attend. Actually they might be the quickest way to find out who does it in your area.

    You can get stuff that is injected into bores too which will split rock.

    on their udders, where a latex glove and then a long arm glove over it, also put pouron on them against flies, will do them every week to 10 days now depending on the weather until the calve

    biggest rip off of all time, when you go to tax office they charge 13 euro to change the doe cert to a cert of roadworthiness- heavy vehicle- 6 euro for a light commercial, even girl working there said its a total con job

    you might as well go and beat your head of a brick wall. converting one official document to another official document. Im still waiting for a tax disc for a jeep taxed 3 months ago.

    How bad. When is insurance up?
    Just stick window cover on next time it's up and claim then.
