I think any animal will eat them if they are hungry enough but they don’t kill sheep and goats I’m almost certain.
I know that a sow will eat a yard brush so I suspect a goat would make ribbons of a pallet.
Goats are great clearing overgrown areas so I’m just wondering do they eat the old buachalains as well?
Surely someone has tested it?
You might need a Spanish donkey for that.

Sheep can eat Ragwort without being killed.
Not entirely true… Sheep and goats are more refractory to the poisons within the Ragwort (Buchalan) plant but if they eat enough of it, it will kill them.
I ordered a new front bucket for the 390. I foolishly mentioned it to the oul lad, irked at the perceived attempt to sideline him, he phoned the engineering firm, discussed the matter and told them to supply a 6’ bucket rather than the 6’6" variant. He was quite firm when he informed me of his decision.
When the item arrived I started using it for the complex subtle demanding task of shovelling stuff from one place to another. Fortunately, within minutes my father arrived to supervise and provide exact instructions for every stage of the operation.
I got so fucked off that I parked the bloody tractor and assured him that the job could wait. He phoned me half an hour later telling me to move the tractor, in case a neighbour would see the new bucket and ask to borrow it. I told him that the neighbours had buckets coming out of their ears and would have no interest in any bucket measuring less than 6’ 6". I agreed to move the bucket, though in a spirit of hatred and blind rage.
When starting the tractor I made the schoolboy error of using the key rather than applying a wrench to the two bolts on the starter. As a result the tractor went on fire. I dont know what the damage is but a auto electrician agreed to rewire the dash, ignition etc. I also arranged for the thing to be collected and delivered to his premises.
Another schoolboy error later and oul fella has enlisted the services of a lad who wired the lights on a horse box circa 1985. He has also made alternative arrangements for the thing to be collected and delivered.
At least one of us is going mad

You’re lucky to have him.
It’s a waste of time arguing with auld lads.

Thank you for your sober reminder. I don’t know how I managed without it for all these years of holding my tongue while biting my lip, never once swearing or raising my voice …I must be some class of saint

You appear to be a bitéén of a basket case really. The occasional blip is understandable but more and more you’re appearing as somebody who, if entrusted with a flock of ducks would witness them all drown.

Brevity. It’s all about brevity.
The Mercosur trade agreement could be fucked as Germany are getting cold feet about the Amazon getting chopped down to supply Europe with cheap beef. That fat, pig head headed cunt Phil Hogan must be seething
