It took us ages to find the farmer in question here. They grazed the land bare and were starving, so much so people were phoning up the police.
Never actually tracked him down, only someone who said it was his "mate". Anyway they disappeared, and despite asking he only removed one of the dead ones, the other he threw over the fence into the woods!
Anyway that was last year, and the grass now needs a cut. Our neighbour (ex farmer) has passed our details onto a friend who just phoned to see if he could put his ewes on the land for a bit.
We're quite happy to do this for the convenience of cutting the grass and repairing any fences.
He did though offer to come to an "agreement" and said he would look up what the rate for grazing was.
Any idea where he is going to look this up?
