[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1254450, member: 16453"] Sounds like you are keeping busy Jilleroo, must be hard though, I would find it hard to shake the feeling that my life was on hold, sort of like being in jail for a few years really, you can't get back on with your life until you serve the sentence. The long range forecast not good but maybe that is in your favour. We have a fair bit of clover appearing here and that has not happened for about 3 years and we have had pretty good autumns and winters but the rain has stopped at the end of July and the springs have been dry. I think the likes of clover has more intelligence than we give it credit for, I think it knows spring is going to be dry so doesn't bother germinating so if my theory is correct then we should have a good spring, anyway he clover will help over winter. I had 8 bulls to get ready to sell this year but was fortunate to sell two of them locally, very happy with the money and not having to feed and catalogue them makes it extra good. I have 5 entered for a sale at Kingaroy in August which is the max load of heavy bulls my truck can legally carry and the last one is entered in the Agshow sale which is going ahead even though the Agshow is not. I am doing a lot of feeding at the moment as i had to send in photos with the nomination for the catalogue plus their weights and measurements so they are ready a bit too early but I will be able to take the foot off the pedal and coast them into the sale which will be better for the buyer. not long now untill the heifers start calving, about the 18th June. Gee the time goes fast, that is the trouble when you enjoy what you are doing so much, much won't be long before I'm in the grave. Ken [/QUOTE]
