    has anyone else started recording the information for The Beef Data programme yet, just done mine on ICBF this morning

    Looked at it about 2-3 weeks ago but it wasn't possible at that stage. Deadline is around March '14 so I'd guess the department are only getting around to it now.

    Much to it?

    Oh I've already lodged a complaint with the landlord but I don't want to get gardai involved. I've no way of proving he hit me first.

    Unbelievable turn of events. You have proof none the less of an assault. Record the extent of the damage, report it to the Gardai, there may well be a counter claim if he has any damage.
    Any witnesses? Or CCTV?

    bit more than the previous one but its not to bad, calves have to be over a certain age before some data can be recorded

    Report it Kovu. He's a coward and needs a good fright. God bless the poor woman that ends up marrying him. That sort of thing doesn't tend to be an isolated incident and the fact there was a prior report about him may help someone else in the future.

    Went in and spoke to the gardai there. They know me already because one of them drove over my phone a while back (don't ask!)

    They'll be paying him a visit later on to have a 'chat'

    out of 210 people I suppose 6 would be dead by thirty. or 3% mortality between the age of 5 and 30. Havnt gone looking for figures but it probably isnt that far ahead of the mean :mad::mad::mad:
