Ha there was a small crack in the weld but now he has made shite of it , he is only making work for meDid he come with the broken gate as well :scratchhead:
He was eager to get out to the cows obviously.
How come there are so many donkeys in Ireland?Spreading on ground I got this year , serious fall in some parts of it.!! The donkeys weren't too happy to see me as they had the whole place to themselves and now it's just a field or two View attachment 53942 View attachment 53943
Well this lad bought them to claim his single farm payments so he doesn't need to keep cattle. Also it's tradition I guess every farm years ago always had a donkey for bringing home the turf from the bog. In the picture above that's bog just beyond the green fieldHow come there are so many donkeys in Ireland?
Hardly ever see any over here.

Well he was doing lots of things with it buying cull cows, steers trying to fatten them and buying FR heifers and putting them in calf and trying to sell them and couldn't sell them this year and had to calf them down and then sell them and now has their calves to rear, he just got sick of it "I've tried it all there's just no money in it" as we shook hands on the dealHow come he hasn’t had that rented , making money up to now ?
It looks to have been cared for , eg , padlocked and probably reseeded in the past .
