ditchman Posted October 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 One of mine did much the same for me LOL, though not so extravagant. I got a pair of Odereaters for my wellies, as it "would stop my socks wearing through" and i return what you need to do is drop him a envelope for xmas and on it write "have a drink on me for xmas"................and inside put a teabag.............

WelshMike Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Fair play gents you certainly have some nice farmers who look after you. I shoot for some nice farmers but they are tight as hell and I am lucky if I get a cup of tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 about 15 years........why...?............ Because I could only assume it was in response to many years of sterling service. But it seems from the rest of your reply that there is more than that to it. I've certainly not come across someone as considerate and appreciative. And I agree with your sentiment that it is the way things should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I agree with your sentiment that it is the way things should be. there are 2 or 3 of those sort of people/farmers around here who are like that...............and do you know what ...they are all council tenant farmers....scratching a living................makes you think eh !
