The problem is we have work coming in thick and fast. Can't wait for the weather, as the farmer wants to bring stock in and spread muck! It's ok waiting if you haven't got much work on. 1 Quote Link to post

Moorman 1 1,373 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Is anyone doing much moling at the minute? 1 Quote Link to post
Nicepix 5,650 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 I never stop. I visit all my customers every fortnight and double back to any that have ongoing problems in the interim week. 3 days one week, 1 day the next and so on. This week I only had 2 calls to make so spent the rest of the day looking for new fishing places. The way I work means that the money always comes in whether there are moles to catch or not. I don't have to sweat over the phone ringing. 1 Quote Link to post
