Carraghs Gem 1,675 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 well i'll be.............its a regular occurrence then it seems.no wonder farmers aint gone on lamps flashing about at night.its on a parallel to a blokes dogs being taken,the farmers sheep being taken.wonder if ye thought of it that way and could understand why they dont like night time activity. When ye add in machinery being stolen, diesel being siphoned from your digger if ye leave it parked up overnight, fences being cut, bales of silage being slashed, dogs worrying sheep, unwanted donkeys being dumped in any field without a lock on gate, gates themselves being stolen and a plethora of other troubles... You can understand why farmers are wary of strangers, know plenty of farmers who do this to each other as well... Nowt stranger than folk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
