  1. Yeah Tim's a good guy, knows his stuff in a crazy scientist kinda way! ?
  2. You guys use burdizzo as standard?
  3. Exlana now you're talking! You know Tim White? I'm only messing really, if they do the business can't fault them. How do they sell live over there though? You certainly get penalised selling wooly tops live here. But all ours go dead anyway!
  4. Those wooly heads for a start! ?
  5. Sheep could be kept in an open prison. Goats would piss all over alcatraz! I don't like goats (we've got about 20 something)
  6. I shear 5 that are local & I'm paid in home brew beer & his wifes pies ?
  7. Mixed grazing works well- cattle worms don't affect sheep, and likewise sheep's don't affect cattle. Any worms ingested by the other species will kill that worms (sheep kill cattle worms & vice versa)
  8. Cheers for couple of mentions. As said, goats won't eat enough grass to achieve what your after. And they are just a massive pain in arse. Your issue this year is everything is over priced, cull ewes included. Just been one of them years for live sellers. If it just to keep grass down I'd suggest a whether from something like a mule, they the lowest value. You will need a flock number/cph if you want to move it on (dead or alive) at some stage. If you want it for long term then go easycare or exlana, no shearing, no flystrike, probably no worms. But you'll get less £££ if
  9. Gravel?? I'm not made of money! I'm licking lichen off a slate!!
  10. Exactly mate. That's why I wouldn't be grassing on him & why I offered some advice with my referee refusal. None of us are whiter than white, I've made mistakes etc.
  11. I've told him no now, cheers for replies all. Nah, that's not how I roll.
  12. Surely Stavlass would have pink stiletto wellies???
  13. I'm well jealous, good to have a proper mate to go on jollys with. Get the violins out for me!!! ?
  14. Cheers fellas, confirming what I thought.
  15. Aye, I know it can be anyone, he just thinks it'll carry bit more clout which I told him it won't. Now just gotta tell him I don't wanna do it.
  16. How do chums Bit of collective thought gathering... Mate of mine from back home has decided he wants a shotgun, clays mainly. He's asked if I'll go down as his reference (his thinking being that as I have licenses that plod will think well of that ??) But the thing is I don't want to. I don't think he IS a good candidate for a gun! He's a mate but he can be a nob, especially after a few bevvies. He's often in bother & has a record. Now I don't think his force will grant him one & totally selfish, but if I did put my name down & they did say no, would that look bad
  17. Look at them toes!! The Shire phoned; they're missing a hobbit!
