APOLOGIES!!! Radio4, Gardeners ? Time
"'Mike'" wrote in message ... "Anne Jackson" wrote in message ... The message from "'Mike'" contains these words: My sympathies lie with the farmers :-( Poor, poor, poor, poor farmers !!!! Again Oh, they'll soon make a financial recovery if, as has been suggested, they treble the acreage of rape, from which to produce biofuel. They won't be too worried about all the poor sods (myself included) who suffer horrendous hay-fever as a result... So, why should I feel sorry for them now...? -- AnneJ My point!! Do you know a 'poor' farmer? They will just have to keep their Land Rover for two years instead of changing it each year :-(( And possibly cut down on their cruising a bit :-(( (We had farmers on our table on the World Cruise. 'Frequent cruisers' they were) I have no sympathy for the farmers at all. They have cried Wolf too long. If farming was as bad as the say, they would get out. "If you don't like the heat of the Kitchen .................." Mike What a load of ********, which world do you live in? |

"Robert (Plymouth)" remove my other hobby to reply wrote in message news:AvqdnanBJs-- Do you know a 'poor' farmer? I know several. They can't sell or give up because they don't know what else to do - and nobody would want to buy after this. There's no compensation, it's worse than F&M. They will just have to keep their Land Rover for two years instead of changing it each year :-(( .. that's just silly. Not all farmers have Land Rovers. My daughter doesn't. And possibly cut down on their cruising a bit :-(( That's not even worth answering. (We had farmers on our table on the World Cruise. 'Frequent cruisers' they were) You can afford a World Cruise. Say no more. I have no sympathy for the farmers at all. They have cried Wolf too long. If farming was as bad as the say, they would get out. "If you don't like the heat of the Kitchen .................." How can you? Like some sailors, some farmers are rich. Not all are. Farmers are among the most frequent suicidals, they're having a very hard time without floods. |

They can't sell or give up because they don't know what else to do - Do you understand the word diversification? I am advising a company at this very moment on just such a thing. No not farming, but many farmers HAVE diversified. Standing still in ANY business is going backwards. The company I am advising is moving into new markets, so have many farmers. THEY are the ones running new Range Rovers, having World Cruises. Perhaps your farmer friends should take note that they have two ears and only one mouth. Use them in the same proportion.

I have been involved with GQT recordings which were broadcast three days later. As for the weather, let's not forget that a) there have been one or two nice days in the south/midlands in the last couple of weeks; and b) the torrential rain hasn't fallen across the whole country: I have friends in Scotland, the North-East and the South-East coast who claim to have had relatively little rainfall. Well, Perth is half-way between the North-East and the South-East, and we've certainly had plenty of rain here! Every bloody day...! I meant the North-East and South-East of England. Well, that wasn't what you said...! Depends on your perspective I suppose. I would imagine that most people in England would take it to mean the NE and SE of England. Residents of Scotland might interpret it differently it seems but I have now cleared that up with your valued help. Grammatically, had I meant the NE and SE of Scotland I would have inserted a comma after 'coast' or a dash after 'Scotland' and again after 'coast' (or better still, parentheses). |
