You know your a farmer when your house porch smells like your animal shed and has almost as much straw in it!!

One you cut your hay, you are laying awake every night praying its not going to rain!!

You put a clean pair of socks on and you still have hay/straw splinter woven into them irrating your feet!!

Once clocks turn for spring and until they turn again in Oct you end up having you evening meal at around 10.30pm if you are lucky!!

When your coat pockets are full of bits of hay, straw and bale twine etc!!

When you spend more time in wellies during the day than any other footwear!!
