Whatās the best way of getting the smell of silage off your hands?
Iāve a meeting with a few high powered yanks tomorrow morning and I donāt want any distractions.
Washing up liquid & sugar ( loads of both ).

Wash your hands in diesel.
Getting the diesel smell off is another matter entirely however. so thats probably a downfall.

Has the wife any handcream or softener, sit down for 10 minutes apply it liberally ( I after a good hot water soak ) itāll soften the skin and take all the residual ground in dirt off of them.
Another great treatment is sand !! If you have a basin of it nearby knead it and do the Same as if washing them in water.
PS. If nieither of the above work, try using a sprong/ fork the next time youāre handling silage.

Btw. Is the site gone gammy again
Informative rating.
Thatās informative too. I might add, wear gloves and use a fork next time @KinvarasPassion.
As these are not helpful for your big meeting tomorrow, if the smell is still there in the morning you need to go to the meeting as an over-the-top caricature of a west of Ireland farmer - wavin rod, donkey jacket reeking of cow shit, baseball cap with a logo of some random petrochemical company, green wellies, and a border collie cross. The cunts will lap it up. Lap it up good and proper.

The washing up liquid ruins your hands, olive oil and sugar is what you want.
sugar ?? Some crowd of wimmin on here now.
The sugar is used as an exfoliateā¦ I think for soft women and small children.
Men use sand.
Donāt bother trying KP just tell them that itās the smell of sucess

I went with washing up liquid and salt in the end. No sugar in the house. I also doused them in vinegar and scrubbed them with a nail brush.
I was trying to think of the stuff the ould fella used to use once upon a timeā¦ eventually it came to me.

Anyway, the yanks were on the beer last night, arrive in late and half scattered so the meeting was a farce. I could have landed a round bale up on the boardroom table and noone would have noticed.

I was going to suggest swarfega but I thought that any farmer would have known that and therefore mustnāt have been suitable. I used to work in a garage years ago, swarfega was the only man for cleaning up afterwards.

That swarfega is powerful stuff. Great for getting grease and paint off the hands. Iād say it takes a full layer of skin with it.

The big dairy lads who expanded in the past few years are fucked lads. Not much sign of Coveney the past month or so whilst all this is going on around him. Liquid goldā¦ Yeah.
I see that UUCOAM Jerry Beades was down in Cork for the repossession of the Kingston farm too 
I normally feel sorry for any chap who loses his farm or animals. BUT, this cunt had paid the grand total of ā¬2500 in the past 16 months after restructuring an already massive loan.
Most lads would keep the head down & try and keep the Bank onside but no, this chap was running around fields with RTE cameras & Davy Fitz. He also saw fit to go Skiing last year too.
If Beades was involved then my sympathy for this chap is zero.

if I can be serious for a minute, if you use Dolimio pasta sauce to get the smell of silage of your hands you are onto a winner, just smather your hands in it for 10 minutes, there is an unreal salt and sugar content in it which causes a chemical reaction to neutralise the odour, my uncle has been doing it for years
