@Gav_S_Harper To be fair I think they have done a decent job on pricing. Especially for kids. That helps a lot for making it an easier.

Great to be at @oxfordfarming conference again to start 2026. “Being Human in a Changing World” session making us reflect on our characters and how fixed we are in mindset and how change decisions impact us. Super to start the year reflecting and connecting.

@FarmstrongScot @AgriScot @TheRHET @The_RHASS @SAC_England This is great. Thinking Thursday is my favourite. But the @MNDoddie5 cycle in March is starting to feature in my thoughts too 🚲 ⛰️ 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🏉 🚲

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

Great to have @FarmstrongScot kicking off the day at AgriScot. Reminding us all about the importance of taking care of ourselves and each other. Great to hear from Catriona and Jack about what they do for wellbeing. Strong @SAYFC theme coming through from both.

A week of events in my new role, great to join the @tenantfarmers webinar on Tuesday and today’s @NFU Tenants Conference at the @3countiesshows Showground. Lots of positive discussion and plenty for the team to get started on.

What a cracking day

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

Having been involved in the initial idea germinating it’s great to see @FarmstrongScot going from strength to strength and having such a positive impact on the people in the sector - take a look and spread the word.

Poor Darcy Graham will be asking what he did wrong for his game time on ball to be missed in coverage.

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

@SkySports what’s happening with the Lions coverage ? Both on tv and SkyGo cutting g out for more than 70% of the game.

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

The Only reason we kept SkySports was for the Lions coverage as the remainder of the rugby offering has eroded so much. This isn’t much of an offering and is so disappointing

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

@EdinvaleFarm It’s been pouring down for the last couple of days 30m south west of you. Hope you’ve had it too.

[Alan Laidlaw @ACL14]

Premier Sports obviously haven’t been supporting Scottish sport for long - tempting fate with that tag ! Hope they keep the momentum going with them.
