We are after a secure FBT – let us know if you are after tenants.
February and March are typically my least favourite months of the year, with winter dragging on and any developments in the heavily pregnant ewes generally being one problem or another.
It has been one of those fortnights when every job takes far longer than it should do.
Mid-March and the February storms seem to have passed. Officially in spring, it is nice to get a taste of lighter nights.
An amazing result was achieved at Talybonton-Usk livestock market last week, when a grand sum of £2,000 was raised for the Ukraine Trauma First Aid Project, recently set up by a local, ex-military man.
Having recently read through and advised on yet another Farm Business Tenancy (FBT), which, as sadly now seems to be the norm, has a short fixed term and reams of overly onerous and restrictive tenant obligations, along with an eye-watering rent, I thought it right to put pen to paper on the subject.
March came in like a lamb for us here in the Scottish Borders, so let’s hope the old saying isn’t accurate as we’ll be lambing at the end of the month and could do without any roaring lions.
This is your reminder that Mother’s Day is fast approaching – Sunday, March 27, to be exact.
February was a very dry month here in South Lincolnshire. Let us hope we do not pay for this pleasant weather later in the season.
