It was only a hobby for the auld lad. Even if I was at home, there’d have been no pressure from him. I wasn’t much into it as a teenager but did what needed to be done. He always wanted us to do our own thing. Parents never had an issue if I emigrated or anything. Just be the best version of myself and take opportunities they (particular he) didn’t have. They’re brilliant to be honest. Strict as hell, but very supportive.

Truly summer in Gortletteragh, the hay saved, Fenagh bate in the league, Niblocks about to officially re-open and the 2020 Intermediate final looming. What more would you want?

For this heavy fog to lift soon!
Thereafter a resurgence of hurling in the club…and, of course, to batter Annaduff in last year’s final!

I know a fella about to inherit an 80 acre farm (not me) which is currently dairy but he hasn’t the motivation to do the revamp or invest the money required to make it more profitable. In truth his father is doing it full time and it’s not bringing in a pile of money every month. This fella will keep his day job too as well as inheriting it. Selling not an option they’re living in the main house and too proud to sell, it’s with that family going back generations
It’s very hard to sustain dairy and hold down a job. He’s as well of getting into rearing calves from dairy herds and finishing them. Least amount of work and hassle.

Lads would want to recognise straw bales from hay bales for a start. It’s the early days of July which is, or should be, a pointer. You caught a few all the same.

I’m just about to introduce this lady into a queenless colony. I’m breaking with the international colour code for marking queens by year of birth…
I felt the forum should be informed
