Well I was referring to Arable Farming not Dairy Farming...


Farming techniches have changed..


Removal of hedgerows means more Pesticides need to be used as the Spiders that lived in the hedgerows

and ate all the insects have gone.


Any spiders that are there cannot reach the middle of these huge fields.


The machinery that is used to harvest these fields is indeed very expensive BUT does the job of

dozens of farm hands in a fraction of the time.


Not that Farm hands were ever paid a decent wage for the work they have done.


Farmers have never had so much time on their hands...


And unlike many jobs, it's there choice..


so stop whinging, get on with it or get out of it.

    • Thank you all SO much for the suggestions.  I didn't expect such a helpful and well considered response. Our plans changed and in the end I didn't try any of them but I certainly will in the future.  You don't know how grateful I am for the help.. The strain and effort involved in dining out because of the background noise really puts me off . I do have hearing aids but they aren't a great help. And in fact magnify many of them associated sounds in eating establishments.
    • Jafar lives up to his 5/5 reviews.  A great job well well done. Dismantled the boiler replaced the part and everything put back together and working.  I can only agree with all his excellent reviews.  
    • I know I shouldn't bite, but .... Would you like to give some  specific examples of exactly why you consider this orange faced  narcissist with the apparent  mental capacity of a gnat (that's probably being unfair to gnats) and a clearly rapidly declining memory  the "best US president of the last 50 years"?
    • Southwark Council has issued a response  on changes to planning in London, urging a rethink -    “We have significant concerns over plans to allow developers to build fewer affordable homes in London, and to cut developer contributions to local communities.   “Under current proposals, the fast-track threshold for planning applications in London would be cut from 35% affordable housing to 20%.   “The proposals would also cut in half the levy that developers currently pay when they build, which helps pay for much-need local community improvements.   “Today we have submitted our responses to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and Greater London Authority consultations and urged a rethink.”   Read the council’s response in full https://southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/planning/planning-policy-and-guidance/responses
