@Longwool Thanks Mike, means a lot. Apparently William let out a little cheer as it wouldn't be so bad for Lyn and me. But in actual fact it won't be our problem, it'll be our kids problem if anything did happen.

@CoombeAdrian Tells you everything about the modern day world when the question to a 10 Year old from a sitting MP is “are mummy and daddy still married” 🤦‍♂️ There are no standards anymore. Be proud of you strong family values @CoombeAdrian your children are all the better for it 👍👍

Super proud of both my kids today. Unbeknown to me, our local Labour MP visited their different schools, while other kids asked about her job etc.... both of them had the confidence to ask her about her views iht. 1/2

Do you make a profit from your lamb enterprise? Do you know how to select the genetics to suit your farm system and combat on-farm challenges? Join @SamBoonBreeding for this @RamCompare evening webinar on Thursday 4th September at 7.30pm contact @HybuCigCymru or @AHDB_BeefLamb

@cvfarming If you do decide to go down the physio route, Conner at Body and Motion Ltd (in Harrowbarrow - he's on Facebook) is brilliant - does only what is needed and gives you a exercise plan to go forward with. Other than that, I've heard using a rowing machine before work is a good.

Farmers are a stoic lot, not often ones to complain, but I've got to ask, does anyone else have the breaking strain of a wet paper bag? My back keeps going, pain down the back of left arm, right knee & under my ribs. 42 going on 142! What do you do to avoid the pains & strains?

Final call for pedigree terminal sires for @RamCompare, join in and put your genetics to test and nominate your rams. Follow links for rams forms.office.com/e/56zJxy5L2H or AI sires forms.office.com/e/ahQhpteJ3J - closing date tomorrow - please join us! @AHDB_BeefLamb @HybuCigCymru

Does your commercial lamb enterprise profit your business? Do you use terminal sire rams & are interested in flock data? If you tag lambs at birth, sell deadweight to an abattoir and interested in sharing data contact @RamCompare to discuss further @HybuCigCymru @AHDB_BeefLamb

@PerkinsLodge @willp6666 @PhilNash2 @FlockHealth I was part of the trail last year, and was really impressed with it. So I know the figures they are quoting are correct. We are using it again this year.

@willp6666 @PhilNash2 We're trialling Nobacz this year, so far it's performing far better than iodine & surgical spirit has done in the past. @FlockHealth did a lambing trial with it and showed reduced mortality with it, I'm hoping it'll reduce navel infections in the calves here

UK Livestock Farmers Anyone got any good suggestions for suppliers of reasonably priced 10%iodine solution? It’s mental money and I can’t help but think most of these people are taking the piss

@allaboutthecows Thought this was going to be a signet themed post.... Hope the robot op goes well.

First time in a CT scanner, can’t believe how quick the job was! Just taking a little picture so that the robot 🤖 gets my new hip in the right place…yes, robot… 😱 #16sleeps

@cvfarming I thought there was an underspend! And they have cut bps - where's the money gone?

Today it has been announced that capital grants are on hold, due to budget constraints. The truth is in real terms the budget is 44% smaller than 2019 and now the schemes can't be delivered. This government's rural policy is in tatters, trust severely damaged.

@cvfarming @annagelderd I'm sorry I wasn't able to make it along to the meeting. But it looks like anything that was said fell on deaf ears.

Disappointed but not surprised. Despite the well worked examples of the family farms in the room @annagelderd has trotted out the party rhetoric to the letter. Disappointed yes, surprised no. Thanks to those that came and gave their time, we now know where we stand unequivocally

I think I've hit something solid, possibly Cornwall.

@Longwool @CornwallCouncil I logged it with @CornwallCouncil last week. Meant to clear within 2 weeks...... Mine is on the to do list.

The countryside is becoming overrun with Ragwort @CornwallCouncil used to keep the verges clear. Now they just don’t bother. I’m keeping my road verges clear but it’s a losing battle when the council and other landowners don’t bother. Sheer bad management and laziness.

Looking forward to catching up with you at the Pen y Gelli farm @RamCompare @GrasscheckGB event this afternoon - for late bookings please contact info@hybucig.cymru - hosted by Alwyn Phillips & @HybuCigCymru - see below for details, supported by @AHDB_BeefLamb @SamBoonBreeding
