hi boys and girls,

just like to share a little story, just to tell you and the wife if she ever reads this how proud i am of her,

i rang her yesterday as normal, im working in scotland for a few more weeks, anyway, she had been and bought another 15 young piglets last week,, so told me, darling one little pig look a bit of colour, so she said i inject with vitiman same you do,

i said you get vet to come in,

she said NO i do myself. i see you do many times, she said i just put pig between my legs and do same you do,

but what you have to understand is that she is 7 months pregnant,,lol,

so like i say at the top of this, im so so proud of her, she is a bloody good un, and i must add her mama too, as they do a great job while im away,

jake, very happy and proud man

Great stuff Jake, that made my day

Scoop

thanks boys,,

just makes me smile how lucky i am, and the thought of her with a pig between her legs giving it a jab,,lol.

bless her

Great to hear that you are so happy, Jake.

I think you will even be more happy in a few weeks, when you can hold your wife in your arms ( and your pigs between your legs )

Don't worry about the words, Jake. You still get that happy feeling across.....

Contented or contentment. Isn't that a magic word and a even better place to be in . Good onyer mate . Should be more of it in the world.

Jake; Happy that you're Happy !

Reminds me of a little thing one of you compatriots wrote a long time ago - his name was Rudyard Kipling:

"When a Hill-girl grows lovely - she's well worth crossing 50 miles of bad country - to lay eyes upon . . . ."

Incredible this ability of R.K. to put an entire story into one (1) sentence.

BTW: best of luck with those pigs, mate !

thank you very much,

its allways nice to see and hear about nice good things happening in thailand, you read so much about the bad things that happen here,

that is why to be honest i like to post on the farming section, i know some of my posts arnt farming, but here in the farming most of us are settled in our lives and here to try and help each other,

just reading a good post about someones farm makes me feel better and lets us know with a little work it can happen, but you have to put the work in, on your farm and sometimes in your relationship,,

and as for being a poet,,,lol ive never been good with words, not a good speller, i know what i want to say but putting it into word thats another thing,,lol,

i can talk the hind leg of a donkey

as you will see if i ever get to one of these meetings,

jake
