I voted yes as it sums up my philosophy a treat. Unfortunately due to the passing of the years I am less openly entheuastic about much these days. Mores the pity

That's well known, we had a few problems during the retention period thing and vainly appealed our single payment allocation many years after.
A lad from Teagasc told me that's nothing - during the (retention) years that the single payment allocation was supposedly being decided upon there was a fucking enormous quota buyout - not by farmers - by tanglers, knacks and the likes of Mr. G. for quota - it sent them sky high - only someone from within government could have known that the single payment would have been decided on the amount of quota held within those (retention) years.
We are all being swindle....... |

I for one moved over here to get away from the rat race and the thieving little toe rags that you get in some places in the UK, We had a spate of attemted breakins on my shed i caught them once and the never ran so b****y quick in their life, after that i had the air rifle ready in the bedroom as our bedrroom was at the back, and i would have shot one up the a***e unfortunately they never came back ,
And then we moved here out into the sticks, would i go back to the UK to live in a word, never, why go back we now have a nice quite simple life out in the sticks. no poluuted air from car fumes and factories, (trust me you can tell the difference in air quality) no council tax, no water rates, and best of all no thieving little toe rags. Apologies if i have upset anyone but its a free country and free speech and all that  _________________ The Magic Seeder Makes Seed Sowing Simple 20% discount to members of this forum

I would agree totally with the air quality, apart from when slurry is being spread. There is even a major difference in air quality between East Coast and West Coast.
As for "thieving toe rags", we have our fair share here but at least Bertie is no longer Taoiseach and the rest won't win the next election..... |

Now , I am wondering whether it would be better for the forum's survival whether we are to be perceived as a bunch of anti establishment independent thinkers who have the balls to step out of the box in some small way .( Or out of the frying pan into the fire in some cases ).
Or should we toe the pc line ?
Needs another poll , perhaps , but I really can't be bothered to set one up  |

Admin, we bow to your superior intellect and would never question you...... to your face. This is how it all starts with power mad dictators. They think they have a direct line to God. You know, that Christian God, the Three Gods in one, multiple personality, has discussions with him/herself.....
I think we should have a new poll
Is Admin a benign dictator or is he The Anti Christ made mortal....?

Coming late to the discussion here, as per usual I'd like to think the forum *is* full of such people. I'm well on the way myself; the older I get, the further down the road I travel, and the faster I'm getting there.
"Normal" life sucks, for want of a better expression. Plough your own furrow, beat your own path, don't follow one.
