Hay time #sun

@davidkerr67 Tomorrow here.

Cows go out tonight.

@StephenFagan_ 18_._? and then an electrician in one of the old cowsheds decided it was the perfect spot for a light. Keep meaning to move it I think it is 44 hidden.

100 years old! This shed, constructed by my great grandfather Tom Fagan back in 1924, was originally built to house pigs. Today it is used as one of our calving sheds🐮 We actually have several sheds around the farm with dates engraved on them, does anyone else have any similar?

We are delighted to announce our new President, Allan Wilkinson, Head of Agrifoods @HSBC_UK. Allan is a dairy farmer's son, and this, along with his banking experience, makes him an excellent fit for our organisation. Thanks must go to our outgoing President, Lord Ewen Cameron.

@NuffieldFarming Congratulations, such an interesting topic.

@TWBFarms Very smart Clive, can you send a link please, rural people are often furthest from a defibrillator but with age profile, and what we learnt on a recent first aid course, they are a really great idea. 🏥

New Defribulator / first aid station fitted, hope we never need to use any of it !

We are pleased to welcome @robertcraigCHF as our new Chairman, taking over from @WastenageFarms at today's AGM. @clovermad has stepped up to Vice Chair. Thanks to Di for all her work & commitment during her tenure, and we look forward to working with Robert and Tim. #teamdairy

@hanslope What a lovely herd and video, what a perfect mantra. Healthy soil, Healthy animals, healthy people.

I know that a lot of #Organic dairy farmers are really struggling at the moment. If you are one of those farmers and need a lift or if you are one of our customers who is thinking about buying organic dairy but not sure what organic means, please sit down and take the time to watch this by @sophieaplin Thank you 🙏 vimeo.com/760632782

@EdRoberts9 O2 really awful as well, trying to use 4G but that is pretty patchy as well. A garbled phone call is worse than no call at all, as you fill in the gaps!

Anyone else finding phone signal around Shropshire/Powys more temperamental than the weather or is it just me?

@hanslope @jcartlidgemp @ShimplingPark @NFFNUK Mama Mia mama mia, let it go, magnifico oh
