@ultimapaul @PaulWoldfarm Really? Exact opposite here. Every pub and restaurant i work with are trying to recruit staff.

Much is being made of pubs closing due to high energy costs, esp⚡️. I feel for pubs and restaurants as they have and are going through a really tough time. Selfishly, as a sector, they are the biggest customer of our Butchery @Macbeths....

@EdinvaleFarm @Macbeths Excellent thread. Similar thoughts going through my head. On repeat. As I'm a one man band, mothballing is a more straight forward option but it's galling to think about. Lost effort and losing the customer base is painful. Not sure whether it'll be my decision or made for me

@Vince_Rookery If i remember correctly, the native white-claw crayfish will have a noticeable sharp spike on the shoulder between carapace and head.

@offer_andy @topioplasm Refurb nearly complete as well. Just the bell tower to go on i think. It looks really good.

RIP James Lovelock. A wonderful and unique view of the world.

[James Rebanks @herdyshepherd1]

James and I became friends in his final years. He was the most fantastic character, bubbling with cheek and mischief and cleverness.

It was a most unlikely friendship and I will miss him. All our love and thoughts with Sandy and the rest of the family.

@DrDowhittle Amazing. Can i ask where you got it done? Friend or artist? Looking to find a Mehndi artist to come to Herefordshire for our wedding in September. Any recommendations?

Edit: There is no major farm product that emits GHGs that are as disproportionately high thanks to the single metric & efficiency (not total emissions) focused accounting methodology applied that ignores C seq & isolates humans from nature as damaging as organic, pasture-fed beef

In the 3rd yr undergrad course on policy making I teach at @ShefUniPolitics we discuss how the ‘rational’ model does not capture well how policy is actually made. The government’s new energy strategy will provide me with a helpful case study for years to come. A short thread. /1

DOG OWNERS
What do you see?
A sheep euthanized this am due to throat and leg damage and shock.19 others at risk of abortion and death through stress. Horrible for all involved. Long term dog owner is mortified, apologetic and accountable. A farmer is one sheep down.

@EdDickson7 @RobHavard1 @farmer_richiet @diggerdansmith @IanDHorsley @BoycefieldFarm So it'll be grazed now and then rested until seed setting? Maybe worth having another quick graze in the spring to keep the sward open and help those seeds?

@RBoldan @driverfarms1 @The_wilk79 Would mortgage companies consider lower running costs with more efficient houses? If they did that should increase the lending available and counter the greater capex costs.... surely...
