Literally a dream.

Well, it isn't, but I am glad it affects you so much

Are you asking Old Hack to feed your pony???

[milanbenes]

can we have some more details

how many acres, what the ground is

how many out buildings

should be able to work out what it cost then

let's do that, tell us the details, acres and how much of the acreage is useable for what and how many out buildings it has, number of bedrooms the house has and we will guess the price

she didn't even give him a kiss afterwards.

apparently its even more fun if you do that with bull.

Imagine meeting her in a pub on a Saturday night, so what do you do? Oh I w1nk horses off for a living.

Will nobody think of the ponies? They see the target (pretend mare), climb on, then someone shoves on a - ahem - prophylactic. The only ones who actually have to 'do it' are racing thoroughbreds.

Start fracking to get your fair share of shale gas.

Haha, no, too many sharks here ready to gazump I'll spill the benes when we've exchanged

Edit:

There will be ponies for the girls, some pigs, few sheep, and I have always wanted a goat to make cheese from.

Aiming to farm free range turkeys (in season) and Ducks (all seasons) for local tables and restaurants.

We had 2 goats - they both died. Apparantly you have to feed them!

I used to have to milk them. I'd take a goat and a big bowl and then start squeezing the milk out. Then the stupid sod would put its foot in the bowl, with whatever it had stood in. Given that I used to milk them in the cow shed, quite often it was cow tulip. using the 5 second rule I'd fish it out and carry on. Then I'd leave it in the house for my dad to drink - he was the only one who wanted it. Eventually I solved the problem. You take one of its front legs and stick it through its collar. Then if it lifts one of the others up it will fall over.

I'd have cows over goats because they are nice to eat and you get lots of meat on them. Although I wouldn't have a farm given, if I had to keep anything it would be pigs and cows, mainly because of my fondness for pork/bacon and beef. Sheep are a pain in the arse as they have a knack of escaping your fields. Chickens stink - I fell over in a big mound of chicken tulip once and its disgusting. Plus the cock that we had was a right nasty bastard that would attack you and its bloody painfull when they get you. When we moved to the farm in Aberdeen we had one that used to crow outside my bedroom window as soon as the sun started to rise. In Aberdeen in the few days that pass for a summer up there, that's at stupid o'clock.
