Hi Happy Holidays

Am I dreamng but I thought you started an interesting topic, I was about to add to it, and it disappeared! Or is it me?

Clive, I thought it might have had a response or two. I was feeling sorry for myself yet again when I wrote it and it didn't come across very well. Yesterday I went to edit and the puppy walked onto the keyboard (laptop on the sofa with the kids watching tv) and there it was no longer!
I find it very hard to understand as a newcomer the poor promotion of the superb beef you work so hard to achieve. In any other commercial activity there is always advertising and exhaustive promotion. When you have such a large society why is the support so poor? The general public is so aware of food quality at the moment, Bernard Matthews, books such as chew on this, programmes such as kill it cook it eat it. There is a cative audience being ignored and going elsewhere. I am fully aware of budgets etc, but do we not all pay subscriptions? I do not mean to be offensive, most of you are beef farmers I understand from previous posts and not many are kept as pets like mine. I would be pretty miffed if I was trying to make a return from my livestock!

You're a star. You have hit the nail right on the head, explained it so well and made it fun at the same time. Dexter beef is probably the best, and yet hardly anyone knows about it. We've got to do something to change this and in time, it will happen.

Clive, your posting of the NATIONAL SITE might explain why I didn't have the response to my post I thought it may get !! Yesterday you wrote "in time it will happen". Boy your "in time" is very quick ! Can you get my xmas shopping done so quickly in December? Enjoy the sunshine.
