Ragwort
Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:18:03 +0100
You know how some plants are very sensitive and will curl up if you touch
them? Well I reckon ragwort is even cleverer than that, it runs and
hides.... ;-)
What happens is, you go down the field with feeds or to pick up droppings,

Hole punches for leather

A bit of drama....
Tue, 24 Mar 2009 19:30:35 -0000
Had a bit of excitement here last Friday. I had the day off - using up
annual leave - and had just ridden Cherry. When I got off I happened to
look across the paddocks towards the industrial estate next door ... and saw
a massive cloud of black smoke billowing out from under the roof of one of
the units! I ...

Bit quiet on here lately isn't it?
