I know I've just been busy, busy and the weathers getting hot and it's paralysis tick season... fattening two animals (steer and a year old bull) to send to the freezer and because it's our first time, just working out all the bits has been a job and a half. Not doubt next time it will be easier.

We had organised a butcher to come to our property and dispatch them, hang in his portable cold room and butcher the meat but he's been soooo unreliable we're going back to plan A - abbattoir and butcher shop. As it's getting hot as well it's far better cutting up in the fly controlled shop, rather than under our house. :wink:

And you're right Mark, Christmas will be here before we blink!

Mark, I have checked in daily between customers, minding the shop while Graham gets all the pre-fire season tractor work done. I was waiting to see if you could beat the record 34 users on-line without anybody actually saying anything.

I've been stuck at home with no web access for over a week as the clutch died on the Land Rover. Naturally the garage that has been complaining of slow trade for months had a rush of work on when this happened, so I had to wait my turn. On the plus side, I have made progress on the thesis.

Been busy with horse "things" - the Australian version of "Equitana" has been on - have been involved in that - but still managed to "talk Dexter cattle" to a couple of horse people! had visitors for a couple of days, nothing much seems to be happening in Dexterdom near me.

Getting awfully hot, if this is spring - god help us this summer. The Grass / pastures are growing down the east coat of Australia, we have been forecast a fairly wet (read humid) summer - so hopefully the bushfire risk wont be too bad this year - but next year !!! wow it will be a potential disaster.

Been checking in regularly. Hope the Classification day goes well for you all over there. Its a great tool if you use it properly.
