If so are you just sick tired, and pissing fed up with just how much worse the last 18 months can get?
Shit harvest, massive problems with sheep / lambs with disease, loosing 60-70% production, so much rain next years harvests seeds simply rotting in the ground, means buying more seed, that dosnt exist due to this years shit harvest. Then the after crimbo lambing is going just as badly as the just as badly as the pre christmas session, very worried that the cows have got it to, and thats if half of them are even in calve as there not showing much sign yet, on top of just being outside in this pisstake weather trawling around knee deep in shit for the last year with no sign of the sunshine yet...]
Its enough to drive a man to fix his car, and honestly don't know how many farmers are going to make it through this year financially.
Rant not over!
