I thought most of these awkward auld cunts had died off,I grew up with a few of them around me.Theyd rather starve themselves than see some other farmer gain an advantage. Usually over something fairly petty.
Farmers can be very bitter, too much isolation and rumination. Some of the feuds round here are into second and third generations, the origins of them would be quite vague at this stage… Thankfully I’ve nothing on my heart but but peace and love (even if half the bastards should be impaled on a silage spike)

Just saw the end of a programme on BBC NI there called Tricked Up Tractors. A young lass had her Leyland pimped up.

That’s about as reassuring as a valentines card from my first wife

@KinvarasPassion eloquently and passionately on behalf of the oft-forgotten custodians of the land there on the news. He’s beginning to look Dáil material in actual fact.

My auld lad had about 4 acres of square bales to bring in back in 86, but decided to fuck of in to the races instead that day. It pissed ran for the next 2 months and he had to dump the lot of it.

Horse Racing is an abomination.
If over 50 years of farming, the father has never waited till December to put the cattle in for the winter. This year will be a first. Until the cold snap this past week, there was still a bit of growth there.
