    Brexit

    Wonder what sort of spanner the Provos running Ireland will throw in the works ?

    Liverpool

    Quiet a good result for my little hammers tonight, only 2 goal loss. Apparently we were as shite as I expected.

    Liverpool

    United were the biggest club in the world, so of course they had more financial clout and I actually think Solskear is setting them up for the future pretty well. But to say Manchester Utd did it through development is absolute nonsense.....they had a crop of player, 3 or 4......everything else they bought just like all these big clubs have done the last 30 odd years.
  4. I’m frankly shocked that anyone thinks asking someone if they want to sell something is odd?

    Liverpool

    So, If I read that right they are second only to city in the last ten years and city were non existent as a force in Utd’s glory years really. Its only relatively recently that city re-wrote the price lists in England

    Rio Ferdinand was I believe the most expensive defender at the time of his transfer......£30 MILLION at the time

    Liverpool

    That don’t really work unless you can see other teams spend in the same seasons mate
  8. You deal with the situation in front of you that’s all, no big deal. But hey, I wouldn’t travel to have bother on purpose either so I’m no tough guy. See, I was just there asking a genuine question but I wouldn’t go to a pub that was known for drunk prats who want aggro......different situations mate.

    Do you know what, you could be right mate......they have been slow out of the blocks that’s for sure

    I’ll give you something mate, you are the supreme optimist ! Funny though, I get a feeling we may just Nick a draw.....don’t ask me why because I don’t know. Did you catch the Athletico v Liverpool game?......I thought it was brilliant
  11. That’s a fair post that mate, can’t argue with much of it. I can honestly say I have never had any bother with them but I’m always upfront about how we are all going to treat each other from the off. The only time it got tested once was when I walked into a permanent site to see if they wanted to sell it and one of them was going mental, I just offered to go at it there and then with him so we could get on with talking business and the chief boy told him to f**k off......all OK after that. But, I take your point and sadly your story is all too familiar to people
  12. That’s true mate, that’s the mindset for many people. Not a bit of me I’m afraid unless it was for my kids or I was going to move away.
  13. Yep, tried that mate.....unfortunately I just am not a Gardner it seems and I always spectacularly fail in growing anything ! Lol
  14. You see all these programmes on the telly mate and everyone is ticking along, up to their elbows building things out of rock with their bare hands etc etc.......my experience has not been like that I can tell you now ! Lol ? I have just messed along making loads of f**k ups, trying this, trying that and my only goal was that we could feed ourselves with our own meat and we have....so that’s good. I also wanted to have a place where my kids could build a home mortgage free and they can do that too if they want because there is enough space for them to have a couple of acres each, so
  15. I have not heard of any reactors here mate.
  16. Most I have had to do is the TB test and the vet don’t charge full wack to do a couple of little un’s like that.....maybe €40
  17. I rear on a couple of bull calf’s from the milking lads now and again, €50 buys them, bit of feed then out on grass upto 10 months then kill for veal Butcher charges me €200 to kill and joint, make sausages, burgers, mince etc so €300 fills my freezer with totally organic veal for over a year.....that’s cheap eating that is.
  18. I always find it strange that most lads here keep cattle and yet they have never eaten their own beef ......they shop at Supervalue instead which I just think is mental.
  19. They turned out exactly how I wanted actually so I kept back a brother & sister and I will breed them together and see how they turn out.
  20. I made €80 each of these little rascals and nobody batted an eyelid at the price.
  21. I reared a couple of wild boar crosses, they were fine and they tasted amazing
  22. Illegal to feed swill here mate, I feed cow crunch and rolled oats and they graze free range.
  23. It’s lovely mate, I always have a good bit of fat on my pork because the fats the flavour. Meat is slightly darker than factory pork. They have a good coat too because they live out most of the year.
  24. I like the Boer goats, but like sheep, I don’t like the fact you are meant to medicate them so much. I lost a load of sheep to Fluke the other year, we suffer bad with fluke here in the west of Ireland it seems. I try and keep creatures that don’t require loads of medication because ultimately, I have to eat it.
  25. I keep Tamworth x Gloucester Old Spot.
