She’s a very good vet and not afraid of anything... for a small woman she’s well able to get stuck in ..The 1st time I had the vet you speak of out to do a job
Was to skull 5 small yearlings . An unpleasant job , but brightened a bit by the view.
She informed me she had never done it before but , we will give it a lash
Went without a hitch.

This girl is well capable also, it's great to see women taking up the role "not the hole"
What about the other 11?There has only 1 male vet in these parts in at least 15 years .
I met a retired local vet in Supervalu a couple of weeks ago . He told me he is 64 , and there was something like 5 % of his year female . Now it would be gone to over 90 % .
I couldn't fault 1 of the dozen odd female vets I have dealt with in the last 20 odd years .
Yes I know Seamus Devane and the family. Thomas his son is a very big silage contractor in west Kerry a very fine fleet of green tractors.This old lad must be some legend ,pity he is not a member here ,he would have some fair share of stories in him .Have we any one down that side of Kerry that knows of him https://twitter.com/Buailtin/status/1147041843131166721

Our daughter is on a waste reduction thing, and has recycled all our present wrapping. My present from her is wrapped in a porridge bag. For my poor wife's present I decided to follow suit:

Im right in thinking the right hedge in the first pic . Is the hedge you’ve cut in the second pic . Lads around here would have a fit if you asked them to cut a hedge that overgrown with a hedgecutter. Mulcher or laying it only option .
