    Just had a look at my SFP maps, oh dear, lots of red biro. However, I anticipated this and had already deducted a H/A amount two or three years ago. Turns out I was out by less than 0.04 H/A, not in my favour but I don't think I'll appeal it.

    Some people are going to get/got an awful shock this week I'll wager.

    If I had my way all the fur bushes in the place would be gone already and the bulldozer would be back at the plant hire with a nice Hitachi coming in to do some drainage!

    A bit of a beard is nice on a man. Although I kinda have to say that my view is a bit biased :D

    Off yesterday, first time in years that had herd test in middle of the day. Tidied up around the yard after. Loaded jeep and trailer with waste scrap and off to metal recyclers... and a nice little cheque for €108 for my trouble. It'll be easy spend it but better than a toe in the h*le.
