| 'Archie' having a good drink of clean water. |
He looked OK but he wouldn't stop roaring. All the other cattle scoffed contentedly. 'Archie' still roared. So I climbed over the head feeder and jumped in among the four bullocks. I decided to check their new automatic water feeder bowls. These have a little ballcock fitted under the stainless steel bowl. Every time the cattle drink, it fills up again. It had filled up again. Filled up with good old bull shit. That stuff which we normally hear the politicians speak. I quickly retrieved a sop of silage from behind the head feeder and proceeded to clean out the drinking bowl. Perhaps somebody should invent 'Marigold' smallholders gloves? Perhaps not.
I moved away from the now sparkling clean water and trough. 'Archie' the gormless bullock took a long slurp from the drinker like a brewery dray horse on it's day off, and he lashed out with his hind leg to kick me out of the way.
That's gratitude for you!.
Maybe Archie knew what he wanted, still a bit ungrateful to kick at you though.
ReplyDeleteLooking a fair size, how old are they?
Next doors chickens (at least 2 of them) seem to have discovered an escape route in our back garden, the grass always looks greener on the other side I suppose. No problem, but they've decided to use the decking as a toilet
Winter seems to be almost upon us, strong winds all week, cold, and heavy showers. Trees just about devoid of leaves, garden started to take on that forlorn and neglected winter look.
Raggy cat continues its comfort-loving winter lifestyle, just come in, milk & biccies, and curled up in front of fire even though it isn't on yet.
Hi Cumbrian,
ReplyDeleteArchie hasn't complained once since I cleaned out the drinker. He was only telling me he wanted a drink, wasn't he?
The bullocks will be two in February. May keep them another summer. Will see how hard up we get. Number one son knows where there is a small mechanical digger for sale. I am very tempted. In fact I told the seller to keep hold of her for me. Yet another restoration project and more pictures for the blog.
Not been able to get on the vegetable plot all week. Far too wet and it's looking very untidy. Strong winds here also. Range kept blowing smoke into kitchen yesterday. Could do with alternative heat source during gales. Supposed to be ice and frost from tonight. Like they say:
"How do the snow gritters get to work?"
Terrier lies on tiles over pipes and snores. Thanks!
Me and Archie have much in common; I would drink from a shit-filled cup either!
ReplyDeleteYes you have got to check the drinkers are clean. I haven't heard a sound from Archie since I cleaned the drinker. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteA digger's always a handy machine to have, digging by hand is very heavy work, and a small light one shouldn't do much compacting like some of the big ones.
ReplyDeleteAnd another winter project to while away the hours when you can't get outside.
Nice morning here, blue sky, sunny, an d a frost on the ground. Sort of November mornings I like, fresh and crisp.
Raggy cat in early, milk and lamb chop bones (yesterdays dinner) then onto the bed with sleeping Mrs. Asked to go out, abput 9:00 o'clock, so it must be a good day.
I agree Cumbrian, it's great to have projects to keep you going through the long winter hours. There are no street lights for four miles. How I envy people who can go for a walk along a lit lane with a pavement. You have got to make the most of the day light .
ReplyDeleteWould also like to get another poly tunnel (last one got wrecked in a gale) or maybe a greenhouse. So I can work the soil on wet days.
We will use the digger to clean streams and clear away any encroaching brambles or nettles.
Domino was crying to get in this morning. Must be getting colder.
Thanks!
i visited different hospital but they gave me list of expensive drugs to treat the symptoms and never cured me. A closed friend of mine introduce me to a Herbal Doctor who cured her. I was scared to contact him because of what i experienced from fake doctors. she encouraged me and gave me his whatsapp contact,and i contacted him and i asked him series of questions, i also ask him to show me the results of those he have cured with his herbal drugs,and he gave me all the information i needed that gave me hope. He send a Herbal medicine to me that i took and it seriously worked for me. am now Hepatitis negative. God bless you for being a sincere and great man. Am so excited and am free from herpes virus. you can reach him via email;dralikaherbalhome@gmail.com or whats-app/call on +2348116570358{1}HIV/AIDS{2}DIABETES{3}EPILEPSY{4} BLOOD CANCER{5} HPV{6} ALS{7} HEPATITIS{8}LOVE SPELL{9} SICKLE AND ANAEMIA{10} HERPESor add him on email dralikaherbalhome@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteI am here to explore a blog forum about the wonderful and most safe cure for HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS . I was positive about the deadly Virus called HERPES and I lost hope completely because I was rejected even by my closet friends. I searched online to know and inquire about a cure for HERPES and I saw Dr ELINFOH testimony online on how he was cured by so many people from Herpes Disease. So I decided to contact the great herbalist because I know that nature has the power to heal everything. i contacted him to know how he can help me and he told me never to worry that he will help me with the natural herbs from God! After 2 days of contacting him, he told me that the cure has been ready and he sent it to me via UPS and it got to me after 18 days! i used the medicine as he instructed me (MORNING and EVENING) and i was cured! its really like a dream but i'm so happy! that's the reason i decided to also add more comment of Him so that more people can be saved just like me! and if you need his help,contact his Email: drelinfohherbalhome@gmail.com you can contact him on whats'app +2348110492072
