@2024rabbithole @rtenews There where rsa breathalyser stations in the car parks given you the option to stop and check if you were safe to drive before leaving .

[Charlie Smyth @ChaSmyth]

@ConceptCowhouse @WilliamConlon What company do this ?

[Charlie Smyth @ChaSmyth]

@PhilipBrady3 @WilliamConlon What’s the reasoning over 150 and no grant for Less ? All grants have done is left everything twice as expensive and and when the funding is gone they expect us to still do it ?

@CatOfTheCanalss @crazyhouseprice Not in shared accommodation , it’s usually divided between the tenants and if it’s one r two wfh it can drive bills through the roof for all . nobody’s forces anyone to rent tbf but it’s a good option till we can all afford to buy our own place .

@pleasedonotbend @ethicalfarmIE @NDC_ie Whose bragging ?

[Charlie Smyth @ChaSmyth]

@ethicalfarmIE Animals are housed during the winter periods as our climate is too harsh to leave animals outside . time varies across the country . For our farm it’s approx 90 days per winter so it’s not consecutively. Irish maize / barley is also fed during the winter to make a balanced diet

[Met Éireann @MetEireann]

@farmersjournal at the @IFAmedia egg producer protest at Aldi in Cavan.Egg producers say they have endured huge cost increases in energy and feed over last few months with no farm gate price increase. Shop is empty here in Cavan with farmers saying they are here for long haul.

[Adam Woods @ajwwoods]

Meitheal & Harvest Dance this Saturday. All welcome!
Come harvest the oats that were sown by the community in Spring. Bring home a sheaf of oats to make your own Mummer hat. When all the work is done there’ll be music, song and dance in the field to celebrate.
