Broken barb...
Tell me why I don't like Mondays...The wind has eventually dropped enough to get down the road and spread some fertilizer on some grazing.Mind you,as I was hitching up the spreader it came on a heavy shower of rain,just to remind me that him up stairs is watching me !
When I got down to the fields,discovered someone had been having fun with wire cutters over the week end. 4 different bits of fence had had the top wire or barbed wire cut through.
Arrived home for a late lunch to discover another heifer on calving. Called the vet as she was too tight to calve. Not so much how many folk does it take to change a light bulb,but how many vets does it take to do a caesarean. He had 3 students on their first day of final year with him. Mind you,they all had a go at stitching the cow up.
I have more milk in my big toe than she has in her udder,so went and scrounged some frozen colostrum from a neighbouring dairy farm.
Then back down the road tonight to fix all the broken fences. It's now after 11pm,and just getting my tea finished,so I think next stop is bed.Had enough for one day !
