neil cooney 10,416 Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Sounds very nice, except for the sheep bit. I spent nearly a year working with 600 of the suicidal feckers so with 1500 of them I'd be the suicidal one. When you're not trimming feet you're fencing, LOL. Good luck and enjoy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ideation 8,216 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Haha cheers lads! Tomo - not quite, I'm not actually working for the estate but employed by a consultancy company who the estate have brought in to manage the livestock operation. Also it's a self employed basis on an hourly rate with a minimum weekly payout. It IS good here but it's hard to expand my own stock as I'm fitting it around my other job and land is expensive. I also spent hours and money driving round to check stock in lots of places. Down there I get ground at a lower price and in one block where I work. It should cut my overheads dramatically! I'm also lucky enough to have a house here I can always come back to and the land I own in wales. Fod - don't worry I'll be back every month for a bit of hubting, there's one quarry missing down there! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
