TJ91 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 pop round your local farmers, knock on their door or catch them leaving a field, introduce yourself, have a natter and see what happens...they dont bite, well i have spoke to many and never been bit just be polite and insurance does help sometimes, worth mentioning, and make sure you say about being responsible around buildings, crops and livestock "i will leave everything as i found it and tiudy up EVERY empty cartridges case!"

12borejimbo Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 How are you going about asking them? Im in sales so I have no problem in buiding rapport quickly and finding common ground! What are you dressing in aswell? Sounds silly but its true! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeand158 Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 To be honest as polite as possible. I work in social work and care services. They are just not interested, "No we have our own!" I had one good chat with a farmer and offered to help out on his land if needed, He asked for my number, see how that goes. Will keep trying though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
