shipped it the whole way over to Ireland for me from Georgia,
along with the padded seat covers;
there's service for you

Among other things,
I keep a high powered rifle with sights in there.
I do NOT hunt as such, I have a soft spot for most animals
and treat them as humanely as possible,
but if I catch dogs at my sheep,
I will take them out,
and regretfully I have had to do this in the past.
I grew up with dogs as my best friends
but I know if they get a taste for killing
they will always return,
usually mongrels or breeds that should not be
left to their own devices in the countryside.

The black and white Collie dogs we use for sheep over here
are intelligent beyond belief
if you are lucky to get a good one.
They seem to know what you want them to do.
Years ago if my father had 20 or 30 sheep gathered in a corner of a field,
he could leave his coat on the ground and the dog would lie beside it,
my father could go home for his dinner,
come back an hour later
and the dog would still have the sheep at the same corner,
waiting for him.
Smart, really smart.
Except sheep,
they start off real smart as a lamb,
and get progressively more stupid and ornery as the days pass.

That is a 12v heater pointing at the windscreen,
to clear the mist from the window before the main heater warms up.
The little swing out thing is a handle as it can be detached to warm up a frozen lamb at birth.

Cool or... I guess hot. Thanks for the update now I can sleep tonight!LOL

That just very might well be the most decked out Gator in the world.

Around here, the first thing I would like is air conditioning. We have two seasons, Summer and Christmas.

How many sheep do you look after?

 

[Donegal TDI]

Not a big farm here,
160 sheep, 40 cattle.

Just got silage made this week,
winter feed now in,
pressure off.
Out rolling today to sort out the ruts left in the fields by the machinery,
we got a lot of rain here this last 2 weeks,
ground conditions not good.

Sheep were just sheared yesterday.
Bit behind because of the weather.
Ireland gets a lot of rain.

You guys enjoy your good weather in the land of the free,
makes life a lot easier.

i live in south louisiana we get rain all the time we wet most of the year .

It might as well be the Sahara here. We had 1/2" on May 26. I think maybe not much for weeks prior and none since. I have a crack in my backyard that a tennis ball could fit in. It might go halfway to China or maybe Ireland.

during the summer we get them afternoon heating thunder storms and in thw winter we get a hard rain everytime a cool front comes down . i don't mind i like the mud but there are times when you would like to kick upa little dust. don't get me wrong it does dry up sometimes but if it does it's not for long.

Ireland is 10°C warmer than it should be.
Weather should be more like that in Newfoundland.
We are kept warm by the Atlantic conveyor(Gulf stream)
acting like a radiator bringing warm water up from the equator.
So we should be thankful for the 16°C it forecasts for tomorrow
