Wolford6 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I went to a farm yesterday where the cows "milk themselves". They voluntarily enter a booth where a robotic machine cleans the udder, laser guided suction tubes lock onto the teats and the milk is sucked into a holding tank with a test-tube sample taken from each cow's delivery.

I saw a documentary about a farm like that, I think it might have been one of those inside the factory things or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolford6 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) There's now a Welsh school in Trevethin. The kids probably still won't pass many exams but they'll almost certainly end up speaking better Welsh than English.

Bearman Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I had read once that manufacturers collude with the oil companies in order to get a mix of sides to prevent everyone using the same side in petrol stations.
