you will get that too.
any time ive heard of the plastic men being called there was a raft of excuses, never had to call one myself, mind you the volac reps a few yrs ago were as good at telling fibs as i ever seen, any one using volac back then will know the particular yr im talking about.
once i made hay for horsie folk, when i went to collect the money (3+ mths after) she told me the horses broke into the place where she stored them and ate most of them and wondered did she still have to pay........:001_rolleyes:
the second and last time i dealt with a horsie person they wanted hay cut, i hate hay but i didnt like to pass her off as i was asked through a favour by a mate.
weather wasnt good at all, couldnt get 2 dry days together, 2 weeks passed, she rang a few times to see why i hadnt cut it, like i say the weather wasnt good, i explained we needed 4 days min to save it, she rang one day in a wild state, accused me of not doing the work, she wanted it cut now......so i cut it, and as the rain streamed down the window of the tractor i thought to myself, this is going to be hard to save.....
three more days of intermittent rain and i rang to say we should bale it into silage...........we dont like the smell of that stuff was the answer, i said ye will loose it, she said she wouldnt.....
9 days after that she rang and said i should row it up as she had got her stable hand to look at it and he said it was in good shape..........for hay..........., it never left the swathe ff's, i went out to look at it and i could hardly see it in the grass.
i rang back and said i could do no more with it, that imo it was too late to do anything with it, best let the horses into it and buy some.
2 days later i passed by it and fcuk me but someone had baled it in squares, i never found out how it come out after, but at best guess id say it was like a white washed wall in the shed.
that was the first and last time i had anything to do with fodder for the horsie folk.
sorry to ramble on a tad but i had forgot about that episode, its good to have an odd memory cumin back
