👏🏽 Say what you like about @JeremyClarkson, but this from himself and @RealHawkstone is absolutely fantastic.
Some more cattle out to the field, some more sold to @StoddartsBeef, a lamb down a manhole and returning the hired docking chute.
Busy day not helped by getting a cut on my hand checked at a&e also 🤦♂️

The fear when the cattle escape 😱 and the relief when they turnaround and come back in themselves 😅😅
Considering buying some of that really expensive waterproof clothing in the hope that the weather drys up and I don't actually need to wear them... which will then give me something new to moan about 🤪

One week on I realise a salesman thought I said I was going to "fall out" with him over his price but what I actually said was I needed to "thaw out" as the weather was freezing! 🥶
Oh the banter...
