  1. Very little has been mentioned about the future of tenet farmers so far. With there uncertain future after private landlords death and land sold for IHT.
  2. Spoke to one of my farmers last night. He said any farm of 150 acres with machinery and house will be close or on 3 million value and getting that 3 million relief looks very difficult it will be more like 1.35 million allowance taking the wife's allowance into account so 400 thousand tax to paid over ten years after death will be the end of any of those farms. Coupled with that most farms that size rely on rented land to remain viable. Should then a private landlord die those farms will go with him.
  3. I would say all three. They won't play round here Ignore the keyboards.
  4. Good read and well done. It's the same round here so many pigeon and they just don't want to know. I was told by one farmer they are not rolling this year after the last two years of heavy rain accumulating on the rolled flat surface.
  5. Well done think positive. Let us know how you get on. There's a lot of late drillings round here this year and still more to do. But very little rape.
  6. Hi. I see your frustration but look at it this way you have somewhere to go a lot on here don't. Just make the most of what you've got it's far better to sit in the hide with a chance of pigeons than sit at home with non. In answer to your original questions yes its hard at the moment i have drilled fields covered in grain to wet to roll pigeons all over it put them off and they don't come back. There flocked up now and with this unusually warm spell there spending most of the day just sat in the woods and trees.

    US election

    Bet he's twitching now. No win, months/years in courts. Oh and it'll be rigged for him to loose anyway if he does.

    This is also important to us get the petition signed.
  11. There's no mention of changes to privately owned double cab pickups. If they are intending to change them all (which i doubt) then i would think we should get the vat back we paid on them.
  12. Brings back memories village school trips. They must have been doubled up on the bus seats.
  13. Boxing day usually for them.
  14. Not the best area for you unfortunately. Maybe look towards the border with Hereford. I was on shoot there for many years also had some awesome pigeon shooting through the summer. Definitely plenty of pigeons round there.
  15. Its out there if you put the time and effort in and do your research before knocking on doors. It will take time but will be worth it in the end. Local knowledge is key.
