• 0:36
  Both
• 0:36
  Robert
• 0:36
  and
• 0:37
  John
• 0:37
  are
• 0:37
  thinking

  hard
• 0:38
  about

  how
• 0:39
  to
• 0:39
  smooth
• 0:39
  the
• 0:39
  path
• 0:40
  into
• 0:40
  farming
• 0:40
  for
• 0:41
  the
• 0:41
  next
• 0:41
  generation.
• 0:42
  There's
• 0:42
  a
• 0:42
  lot
• 0:42
  of
• 0:43
  youngsters
• 0:43
  really
• 0:43
  keen
• 0:44
  to
• 0:44
  get
• 0:44
  into
• 0:44
  farming
• 0:44
  at
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  moment.
• 0:45
  At
• 0:45
  that
• 0:45
  age
• 0:45
  you're
• 0:46
  young
• 0:46
  and
• 0:47
  hungry
• 0:47
  and
• 0:47
  got
• 0:47
  tons
• 0:47
  of
• 0:48
  good
• 0:48
  ideas.
• 0:49
  John
• 0:49
  lives
• 0:49
  on
• 0:50
  Iona.
• 0:51
  You
• 0:51
  might
• 0:51
  think
• 0:51
  that
• 0:52
  is
• 0:52
  an
• 0:52
  isolating
• 0:53
  way
• 0:53
  of
• 0:53
  life,
• 0:53
  but
• 0:54
  that
• 0:54
  he
• 0:54
  says
• 0:54
  he's
• 0:55
  surrounded
• 0:55
  by
• 0:56
  a
• 0:56
  full
• 0:56
  and
• 0:57
  busy
• 0:57
  community.
• 0:58
  John's
• 0:58
  not
• 0:58
  isolated.
• 0:59
  I've
• 1:00
  heard
• 1:00
  of
• 1:00
  John
• 1:00
  clipping
• 1:01
  sheep
• 1:01
  at
• 1:01
  the
• 1:01
  side
• 1:01
  of
• 1:02
  the
• 1:02
  paddock
• 1:02
  of
• 1:02
  the
• 1:02
  park
• 1:03
  and
• 1:03
  he's
• 1:03
  got
• 1:04
  Americans
• 1:04
  standing
• 1:05
  looking
• 1:05
  over
• 1:05
  the
• 1:05
  fence
• 1:05
  and
• 1:06
  he's
• 1:06
  doing
• 1:06
  a
• 1:06
  running
• 1:06
  commentary
• 1:07
  while
• 1:07
  he's
• 1:08
  clipping
• 1:08
  the
• 1:08
  sheep.
• 1:08
  That's
• 1:09
  only
• 1:09
  to
• 1:09
  get
• 1:09
  a
• 1:09
  break.
• 1:10
  My
• 1:10
  eldest
• 1:10
  son
• 1:11
  started
• 1:11
  clipping
• 1:11
  so
• 1:12
  he'll
• 1:12
  be
• 1:12
  busy
• 1:12
  working
• 1:12
  away
• 1:13
  and
• 1:13
  I'll
• 1:13
  talk
• 1:13
  to
• 1:13
  tourists
• 1:14
  and
• 1:14
  straighten
• 1:15
  my
• 1:15
  back
• 1:15
  and
• 1:15
  then
• 1:16
  grab
• 1:16
  one
• 1:16
  when
• 1:16
  I'm
• 1:17
  ready.
• 1:17
  And
• 1:17
  Robert
• 1:18
  talks
• 1:18
  about
• 1:18
  how
• 1:18
  he
• 1:19
  gets
• 1:19
  his
• 1:19
  well
• 1:20
  being
• 1:20
  from
• 1:21
  problem
• 1:21
  solving,
• 1:22
  fixing
• 1:23
  things
• 1:23
  and
• 1:24
  encouraging
• 1:25
  others.
• 1:25
  Yeah,
• 1:25
  that
• 1:26
  is
• 1:26
  very
• 1:26
  satisfying
• 1:27
  if
• 1:27
  you
• 1:28
  can
• 1:28
  solve
• 1:28
  a
• 1:28
  problem
• 1:29
  for
• 1:29
  somebody,
• 1:29
  then
• 1:29
  they
• 1:29
  go
• 1:30
  away
• 1:30
  happy.
• 1:37
  John.
• 1:38
  Robert,
• 1:38
  I
• 1:39
  know
• 1:39

  so
• 1:43
  we'll
• 1:43
  get
• 1:43
  to
• 1:43
  that
• 1:43
  bit
• 1:43
  later
• 1:44
  on,
• 1:44
  but
• 1:44
  I
• 1:44
  normally
• 1:45
  start
• 1:45
  these
• 1:45
  chats
• 1:46
  with
• 1:46
  a
• 1:47
  round
• 1:47
  of
• 1:47
  rapid
• 1:48
  fire
• 1:48
  questions.

  Are

  you
• 1:50
  up
• 1:50
  for
• 1:50
  answering

  afford
• 2:04
  any
• 2:04
  car,
• 2:05
  which
• 2:05
  one
• 2:05
  would

  The

  Okay,

  a

  lot
• 2:31
  of
• 2:31
  people

  in
• 2:31
  Scotland.
• 2:32
  I
• 2:32
  kept
• 2:32
  it
• 2:32
  late,
• 2:33
  but
• 2:33
  yeah.
• 2:33
  Oh
• 2:34
  well,
• 2:34
  thank
• 2:34
  you
• 2:34
  very
• 2:34
  much,
• 2:35
  gentlemen.
• 2:35
  It's
• 2:36
  just
• 2:36
  a
• 2:36
  bit
• 2:36
  of
• 2:36
  a
• 2:37
  fun,
• 2:37
  a
• 2:37
  bit
• 2:37
  of
• 2:37
  an
• 2:37
  icebreaker.
• 2:38
  But
• 2:38
  I,
• 2:39
  I
• 2:39
  know
• 2:39
  you
• 2:39
  both
• 2:39
  know
• 2:40
  each
• 2:40
  other
• 2:40
  well,
• 2:40
  is
• 2:41
  that
• 2:41
  right?
• 2:41
  Yeah,
• 2:42
  we've
• 2:43
  known
• 2:43
  each
• 2:43
  other
• 2:43
  for
• 2:44
  probably
• 2:45
  11,
• 2:45
  12
• 2:45
  years
• 2:46
  since
• 2:46
  I
• 2:47
  started
• 2:47
  on
• 2:47
  the
• 2:47
  Agri
• 2:47
  Scott
• 2:48
  board.
• 2:48
  And
• 2:48
  John
• 2:49
  is
• 2:50
  well
• 2:50
  being
• 2:51
  mental,
• 2:51
  physical,
• 2:52
  emotional,
• 2:52
  well
• 2:53
  being.
• 2:53
  How
• 2:54
  much
• 2:55
  is
• 2:55
  that
• 2:55
  on
• 2:55
  your
• 2:55
  radar?
• 2:56
  I
• 2:56
  think
• 2:56
  it
• 2:57
  is.
• 2:58
  You're
• 2:58
  always
• 2:59
  thinking
• 2:59
  about
• 2:59
  it
• 2:59
  because
• 3:00
  you
• 3:00
  hear
• 3:00
  so
• 3:00
  much
• 3:00
  of
• 3:01
  it,
• 3:01
  especially
• 3:01
  like
• 3:01
  in
• 3:02
  the
• 3:03
  farming
• 3:03
  industry
• 3:03
  as
• 3:04
  well
• 3:04
  at
• 3:05
  the
• 3:05
  moment.
• 3:05
  So
• 3:05
  you
• 3:05
  are
• 3:05
  aware
• 3:06
  of
• 3:06
  it,
• 3:06
  that
• 3:06
  you
• 3:06
  need
• 3:06
  to
• 3:06
  kind
• 3:07
  of
• 3:07
  take
• 3:07
  time
• 3:07
  out
• 3:07
  and
• 3:08
  look
• 3:08
  after
• 3:09
  yourself
• 3:09
  or
• 3:09
  do
• 3:09
  things
• 3:10
  that
• 3:10
  you
• 3:10
  enjoy
• 3:10
  as
• 3:10
  well
• 3:11
  and
• 3:11
  trying
• 3:11
  to
• 3:11
  get
• 3:11
  away
• 3:11
  from
• 3:12
  it.
• 3:12
  It's
• 3:12
  difficult
• 3:13
  because
• 3:13
  actually
• 3:14
  both
• 3:14
  the
• 3:14
  jobs
• 3:15
  that
• 3:16
  I
• 3:16
  do,
• 3:16
  I
• 3:17
  mean
• 3:17
  there
• 3:17
  is
• 3:17
  stress
• 3:17
  in
• 3:18
  them
• 3:18
  some
• 3:18
  of
• 3:18
  the
• 3:18
  time,
• 3:18
  but
• 3:19
  working
• 3:19
  Agri
• 3:20
  Scott
• 3:20
  and
• 3:20
  the
• 3:20
  farm
• 3:20
  is
• 3:21
  just
• 3:21
  kind
• 3:22
  of
• 3:22
  a
• 3:22
  pleasure
• 3:22
  anyway,
• 3:23
  so
• 3:23
  I
• 3:23
  don't
• 3:23
  really
• 3:24
  enjoy
• 3:25
  that.
• 3:25
  So
• 3:25
  you
• 3:25
  don't
• 3:26
  struggle
• 3:26
  too
• 3:26
  much
• 3:27
  at
• 3:27
  times,
• 3:27
  but
• 3:27
  you
• 3:28
  never
• 3:28
  know
• 3:28
  what's
• 3:28
  around
• 3:29
  the
• 3:29
  corner.
• 3:29
  So
• 3:29
  you've
• 3:30
  always
• 3:30
  got
• 3:30
  to
• 3:30
  be
• 3:30
  thinking
• 3:31
  about
• 3:31
  it,
• 3:31
  haven't
• 3:31
  you?
• 3:31
  Or
• 3:31
  aware
• 3:32
  of
• 3:32
  it.
• 3:32
  And
• 3:33
  Robert,
• 3:33
  are
• 3:33
  you
• 3:33
  in
• 3:34
  tune
• 3:34
  with
• 3:34
  that
• 3:34
  side
• 3:34
  of
• 3:35
  things?
• 3:35
  Yeah,
• 3:35
  definitely.
• 3:36
  You
• 3:36
  know,
• 3:37
  agriculture,
• 3:38
  farming
• 3:38
  is
• 3:38
  a
• 3:38
  lonely
• 3:39
  job
• 3:40
  sometimes

  you

  know,
• 4:09
  a
• 4:09
  problem
• 4:10
  shared
• 4:10
  is
• 4:10
  a
• 4:10
  problem
• 4:11
  off
• 4:11
  your
• 4:11
  shoulders.
• 4:11
  I
• 4:12
  use
• 4:12
  Robert
• 4:12
  for
• 4:12
  that
• 4:13
  quite
• 4:13
  a
• 4:13
  bit.
• 4:13
  Like
• 4:13
  if
• 4:13
  you
• 4:14
  have
• 4:14
  something
• 4:14
  like
• 4:15
  bad
• 4:15
  calving
• 4:15
  or
• 4:16
  something's
• 4:16
  going
• 4:16
  wrong
• 4:16
  in
• 4:16
  the
• 4:17
  winter,
• 4:17
  I'll
• 4:17
  quite
• 4:17
  often
• 4:17
  just
• 4:18
  phone
• 4:19
  Robert
• 4:19
  and
• 4:19
  have
• 4:20
  a
• 4:20
  chat
• 4:20
  about
• 4:20
  it
• 4:20
  and
• 4:20
  you
• 4:20
  find
• 4:21
  that
• 4:21
  he's
• 4:21
  had
• 4:22
  something
• 4:22
  else
• 4:22
  has
• 4:22
  died
• 4:23
  on
• 4:23
  him
• 4:23
  that
• 4:23
  morning.
• 4:24
  He's.
• 4:24
  He's
• 4:25
  having
• 4:25
  a
• 4:25
  bad
• 4:25
  time
• 4:25
  with
• 4:26
  it
• 4:26
  too.
• 4:26
  So
• 4:27
  if
• 4:27
  you
• 4:27
  share
• 4:27
  it,
• 4:27
  then
• 4:28
  after
• 4:28
  you
• 4:28
  come
• 4:29
  off
• 4:29
  the
• 4:29
  phone
• 4:29
  it
• 4:29
  doesn't
• 4:29
  quite
• 4:30
  seem
• 4:30
  as
• 4:30
  bad,
• 4:31
  if
• 4:31
  that
• 4:31
  makes
• 4:31
  sense.
• 4:31
  You
• 4:32
  know,
• 4:32
  you're
• 4:32
  going
• 4:32
  to,
• 4:32
  well,
• 4:33
  okay,
• 4:33
  it's
• 4:33
  happened
• 4:33
  to
• 4:33
  someone
• 4:34
  else,
• 4:34
  so
• 4:34
  it's
• 4:34
  not
• 4:34
  the
• 4:34
  end
• 4:35
  of
• 4:35
  the
• 4:35
  world
• 4:35
  kind
• 4:35
  of
• 4:35
  thing
• 4:36
  if
• 4:36
  you're
• 4:36
  left
• 4:37
  just
• 4:37
  with
• 4:37
  your
• 4:37
  own
• 4:37
  thoughts.
• 4:37
  You
• 4:38
  beat
• 4:38
  yourself
• 4:38
  up
• 4:38
  a
• 4:38
  wee
• 4:38
  bit,
• 4:39
  don't
• 4:39
  you?
• 4:39
  You
• 4:39
  think
• 4:39
  it's
• 4:39
  yourself
• 4:40
  that's
• 4:40
  done
• 4:40
  something
• 4:40
  wrong.
• 4:41
  Well,
• 4:41
  I'm
• 4:41
  wondering
• 4:42
  also
• 4:42
  about
• 4:42
  Your
• 4:43
  sort
• 4:43
  of
• 4:44
  vacation.
• 4:44
  John.
• 4:44
  And
• 4:45
  a
• 4:45
  beautiful
• 4:45
  place
• 4:46
  to
• 4:46
  live.
• 4:46
  Iona.
• 4:47
  But
• 4:47
  also
• 4:47
  quite
• 4:48
  isolated.
• 4:48
  I
• 4:48
  mean
• 4:48
  you
• 4:49
  can
• 4:49
  be
• 4:49
  isolated,
• 4:50
  of
• 4:50
  course,
• 4:50
  working
• 4:51
  on
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  farm
• 4:51
  in
• 4:52
  the
• 4:52
  mainland.
• 4:52
  But
• 4:53
  do
• 4:53
  you
• 4:53
  feel
• 4:54
  that
• 4:54
  isolation?
• 4:55
  John's
• 4:55
  not
• 4:56
  isolated.
• 4:56
  Iona
• 4:57
  gets
• 4:57
  all
• 4:57
  these
• 4:58
  visitors
• 4:58
  and
• 4:58
  he
• 4:58
  relishes
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  challenge
• 5:00
  of
• 5:00
  speaking
• 5:00
  to
• 5:00
  all
• 5:00
  these
• 5:01
  tourists.
• 5:02
  John
• 5:02
  can
• 5:02
  talk
• 5:02
  the
• 5:02
  hint.
• 5:03
  Legs
• 5:03
  off
• 5:03
  a
• 5:03
  donkey.
• 5:04
  I've
• 5:04
  heard
• 5:04
  of
• 5:04
  John
• 5:05
  clipping
• 5:05
  sheep
• 5:05
  at
• 5:05
  the
• 5:06
  side
• 5:06
  of
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  paddock
• 5:06
  of
• 5:06
  the
• 5:07
  park.
• 5:07
  And
• 5:07
  he's
• 5:08
  got
• 5:08
  Americans
• 5:08
  standing
• 5:09
  looking
• 5:09
  over
• 5:09
  the
• 5:09
  fence
• 5:10
  and
• 5:10
  he's
• 5:10
  doing
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  running
• 5:11
  commentary
• 5:11
  while
• 5:12
  he's
• 5:12
  clipping
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  sheep.
• 5:13
  And
• 5:13
  all
• 5:13
  that
• 5:13
  wool
• 5:14
  is
• 5:14
  sold
• 5:14
  in
• 5:15
  the
• 5:15
  shop
• 5:15
  in
• 5:15
  Iona.
• 5:16
  So
• 5:16
  he's
• 5:16
  got
• 5:17
  a
• 5:17
  story
• 5:17
  to
• 5:17
  tell.
• 5:17
  So
• 5:19
  he's
• 5:19
  probably
• 5:20
  one
• 5:20
  of
• 5:20
  the
• 5:20
  luckiest
• 5:21
  people
• 5:21
  out
• 5:21
  there.
• 5:21
  And
• 5:22
  he
• 5:22
  is
• 5:22
  in
• 5:22
  a
• 5:23
  remote
• 5:23
  place.
• 5:23
  But
• 5:23
  he's
• 5:23
  not
• 5:24
  remote
• 5:24
  with
• 5:24
  all
• 5:25
  these
• 5:25
  visitors
• 5:25
  that
• 5:25
  come
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  see.
• 5:26
  Yeah.
• 5:26
  John,
• 5:26
  you've
• 5:26
  got
• 5:26
  nothing
• 5:27
  to
• 5:27
  worry
• 5:27
  about.
• 5:29
  So
• 5:29
  tell
• 5:29
  me
• 5:29
  about
• 5:29
  life
• 5:29
  on
• 5:30
  Iowa.
• 5:30
  I've
• 5:30
  been.
• 5:30
  It's
• 5:31
  absolutely
• 5:32
  stunning.
• 5:32
  It
• 5:32
  is
• 5:32
  busy
• 5:33
  during
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  summer.
• 5:33
  I'm
• 5:34
  not
• 5:34
  sure
• 5:34
  what
• 5:34
  it's
• 5:34
  like
• 5:34
  during
• 5:35
  the
• 5:35
  winter.
• 5:35
  You
• 5:36
  get
• 5:36
  a
• 5:36
  lot
• 5:36
  of
• 5:36
  visitors.
• 5:37
  It
• 5:37
  does
• 5:38
  seem
• 5:38
  to
• 5:38
  be
• 5:38
  a
• 5:39
  really
• 5:39
  thriving
• 5:40
  community.
• 5:41
  Yeah,
• 5:42
  it
• 5:42
  does.
• 5:42
  Robert's
• 5:43
  right
• 5:43
  there.
• 5:44
  You're
• 5:44
  actually.
• 5:44
  You're
• 5:45
  so
• 5:45
  busy
• 5:45
  over
• 5:45
  the
• 5:45
  course
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  summer.
• 5:46
  The
• 5:46
  bit
• 5:46
  of
• 5:47
  the
• 5:47
  shearing.
• 5:47
  Actually
• 5:47
  that's
• 5:48
  only
• 5:48
  to
• 5:48
  get
• 5:48
  a
• 5:48
  break
• 5:49
  because
• 5:49
  if
• 5:50
  you.
• 5:50
  My
• 5:50
  eldest
• 5:51
  son
• 5:51
  started
• 5:51
  clipping.
• 5:52
  So
• 5:52
  he'll
• 5:52
  be
• 5:52
  busy
• 5:53
  working
• 5:53
  away
• 5:53
  and
• 5:53
  I'll
• 5:53
  talk
• 5:53
  to
• 5:54
  tourists
• 5:54
  and
• 5:54
  straighten
• 5:55
  my
• 5:55
  back
• 5:55
  and
• 5:56
  then
• 5:56
  grab
• 5:56
  one
• 5:56
  when
• 5:57
  I'm
• 5:57
  ready.
• 5:58
  But
• 5:58
  yeah,
• 5:59
  you
• 5:59
  do
• 5:59
  get.
• 5:59
  It's
• 6:00
  quiet
• 6:00
  in
• 6:00
  the
• 6:00
  winter.
• 6:01
  Most
• 6:01
  folk
• 6:01
  in
• 6:02
  the
• 6:02
  island
• 6:02
  live
• 6:02
  are
• 6:03
  in
• 6:03
  through
• 6:03
  tourist
• 6:04
  industries.
• 6:04
  I
• 6:04
  mean
• 6:04
  that
• 6:05
  is
• 6:05
  a
• 6:05
  big
• 6:05
  driver
• 6:06
  in
• 6:06
  the
• 6:06
  economy.
• 6:06
  But
• 6:07
  I'm
• 6:07
  one
• 6:07
  of
• 6:07
  the
• 6:07
  few
• 6:07
  that's
• 6:08
  actually
• 6:08
  just.
• 6:08
  You
• 6:09
  work
• 6:09
  away
• 6:09
  through
• 6:09
  the
• 6:10
  winter
• 6:10
  as
• 6:10
  well.
• 6:10
  You've
• 6:10
  got
• 6:11
  quite
• 6:11
  a
• 6:11
  lot
• 6:11
  on,
• 6:11
  you
• 6:12
  know,
• 6:12
  so
• 6:12
  you're
• 6:12
  not.
• 6:13
  It's
• 6:13
  not
• 6:13
  dependent
• 6:14
  on
• 6:14
  the
• 6:14
  tourist
• 6:14
  season
• 6:14
  whether
• 6:14
  you're
• 6:15
  busy
• 6:15
  or
• 6:15
  not.
• 6:15
  But
• 6:16
  you're
• 6:16
  right.
• 6:16
  You
• 6:16
  can
• 6:17
  be
• 6:17
  you.
• 6:17
  You
• 6:17
  could
• 6:18
  run
• 6:18
  the
• 6:18
  risk
• 6:18
  of
• 6:18
  just
• 6:19
  living
• 6:19
  over
• 6:19
  here
• 6:20
  on
• 6:20
  the
• 6:20
  west
• 6:20
  side
• 6:20
  island.
• 6:21
  Just
• 6:21
  be
• 6:21
  on
• 6:22
  the
• 6:22
  farm
• 6:22
  all
• 6:22
  the
• 6:22
  time.
• 6:23
  Not
• 6:23
  go
• 6:23
  to
• 6:23
  the
• 6:23
  village.
• 6:23
  You
• 6:24
  could
• 6:24
  become
• 6:24
  quite
• 6:24
  isolated.
• 6:25
  But
• 6:25
  that's
• 6:26
  where
• 6:26
  things
• 6:26
  like
• 6:27
  keep
• 6:27
  in
• 6:27
  touch
• 6:28
  with
• 6:28
  friends.
• 6:29
  Agriscope
• 6:29
  work
• 6:30
  comes
• 6:30
  in
• 6:30
  handy
• 6:31
  as
• 6:31
  well
• 6:31
  for
• 6:32
  keeping
• 6:32
  you
• 6:32
  engaged
• 6:33
  with
• 6:33
  other
• 6:33
  people.
• 6:34
  Martind
• 6:35
  that
• 6:35
  I
• 6:35
  work
• 6:35
  with
• 6:35
  at
• 6:35
  rural
• 6:36
  projects.
• 6:36
  He'll
• 6:36
  quite
• 6:37
  often
• 6:37
  get
• 6:37
  these
• 6:37
  calls
• 6:38
  from
• 6:38
  me
• 6:38
  when
• 6:38
  I'm.
• 6:39
  Maybe
• 6:39
  I
• 6:39
  don't
• 6:39
  have
• 6:39
  anything
• 6:40
  really
• 6:40
  to
• 6:40
  speak
• 6:40
  to
• 6:41
  him
• 6:41
  about.
• 6:41
  But
• 6:41
  I'll
• 6:41
  phone
• 6:42
  up
• 6:42
  just
• 6:42
  for
• 6:42
  a
• 6:42
  chat
• 6:43
  just
• 6:43
  about
• 6:43
  football.
• 6:43
  Wee
• 6:44
  bit
• 6:44
  of
• 6:44
  Work
• 6:44
  and
• 6:45
  that's
• 6:45
  quite
• 6:45
  good
• 6:45
  for
• 6:45
  you
• 6:46
  as
• 6:46
  well.
• 6:47
  And
• 6:47
  then
• 6:47
  there
• 6:47
  is
• 6:47
  that
• 6:48
  we're
• 6:48
  one
• 6:48
  of
• 6:48
  the
• 6:48
  few
• 6:49
  islands,
• 6:49
  I
• 6:49
  think
• 6:49
  over
• 6:50
  the
• 6:50
  last
• 6:50
  few
• 6:50
  years
• 6:50
  where
• 6:50
  the
• 6:51
  population
• 6:52
  has
• 6:52
  grown.
• 6:52
  There's
• 6:52
  quite
• 6:53
  a
• 6:53
  few
• 6:53
  folk
• 6:53
  moved
• 6:53
  back
• 6:53
  at
• 6:54
  the
• 6:54
  same
• 6:54
  time
• 6:54
  as
• 6:54
  us,
• 6:54
  had
• 6:55
  families.
• 6:56
  So
• 6:56
  there's.
• 6:57
  There
• 6:57
  is
• 6:57
  quite
• 6:57
  a
• 6:58
  strong
• 6:59
  community,
• 6:59
  a
• 7:00
  decent
• 7:00
  population
• 7:00
  over
• 7:01
  the
• 7:01
  winter
• 7:01
  as
• 7:01
  well.
• 7:02
  How
• 7:02
  important
• 7:03
  is
• 7:03
  it
• 7:03
  to
• 7:03
  you
• 7:03
  to
• 7:04
  get
• 7:04
  off
• 7:05
  the
• 7:05
  island
• 7:05
  now
• 7:05
  and
• 7:06
  again?
• 7:06
  Oh,
• 7:06
  that's
• 7:07
  vital.
• 7:07
  Yeah.
• 7:08
  Now
• 7:08
  you
• 7:08
  need
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  go
• 7:08
  away,
• 7:09
  see
• 7:09
  other
• 7:09
  things,
• 7:10
  see
• 7:10
  family
• 7:11
  and
• 7:11
  stuff
• 7:11
  that
• 7:11
  live
• 7:11
  in
• 7:12
  the
• 7:12
  mainland.
• 7:12
  Wife's
• 7:12
  families
• 7:13
  from
• 7:13
  Dundees
• 7:13
  who
• 7:14
  would
• 7:14
  go
• 7:14
  over
• 7:14
  to
• 7:14
  see
• 7:14
  them
• 7:15
  when
• 7:15
  the
• 7:15
  boys
• 7:15
  were
• 7:16
  we
• 7:16
  and
• 7:16
  were
• 7:16
  growing
• 7:16
  up.
• 7:17
  Go
• 7:17
  to
• 7:17
  the
• 7:18
  Borders,
• 7:18
  see
• 7:18
  how
• 7:19
  the
• 7:19
  other
• 7:19
  half
• 7:19
  lived
• 7:20
  in
• 7:20
  the
• 7:20
  land
• 7:20
  of
• 7:20
  milk
• 7:21
  and
• 7:21
  honey.
• 7:21
  You're
• 7:22
  trying
• 7:22
  to
• 7:22
  make
• 7:23
  a
• 7:23
  living
• 7:23
  out
• 7:23
  of
• 7:24
  a
• 7:24
  rock
• 7:24
  out
• 7:25
  here.
• 7:25
  And
• 7:25
  Roberts
• 7:26
  feel.
• 7:26
  I
• 7:26
  think
• 7:27
  Roberts
• 7:27
  combined
• 7:28
  acreage
• 7:29
  is
• 7:29
  at
• 7:29
  roughly
• 7:29
  about
• 7:29
  the
• 7:30
  size
• 7:30
  of
• 7:30
  a
• 7:30
  Yona.
• 7:31
  And
• 7:32
  we
• 7:32
  went.
• 7:32
  The
• 7:32
  first
• 7:32
  time
• 7:32
  we
• 7:33
  down,
• 7:33
  we
• 7:33
  went
• 7:33
  a
• 7:33
  farm
• 7:33
  tour
• 7:34
  and
• 7:34
  honestly
• 7:35
  I
• 7:35
  must
• 7:35
  have
• 7:35
  only
• 7:35
  seen
• 7:35
  about
• 7:36
  two
• 7:36
  or
• 7:36
  three
• 7:36
  rocks,
• 7:37
  couple
• 7:38
  of
• 7:38
  clumps
• 7:38
  of
• 7:38
  rushes
• 7:39
  and
• 7:39
  that
• 7:39
  was
• 7:39
  it.
• 7:40
  And
• 7:40
  they're
• 7:40
  probably
• 7:40
  gone
• 7:41
  now.
• 7:41
  So
• 7:42
  it's.
• 7:42
  Robert
• 7:42
  sorted
• 7:43
  them
• 7:43
  out,
• 7:43
  has
• 7:43
  he?
• 7:45
  It's
• 7:45
  different
• 7:45
  land
• 7:46
  but
• 7:46
  no
• 7:46
  different.
• 7:47
  Different
• 7:47
  vibe
• 7:48
  to
• 7:48
  your
• 7:48
  farm.
• 7:48
  And
• 7:49
  the
• 7:49
  sort
• 7:49
  of
• 7:50
  wonderful
• 7:50
  nature
• 7:51
  of
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  west
• 7:51
  coast
• 7:52
  is.
• 7:52
  That's
• 7:52
  what,
• 7:52
  you
• 7:52
  know,
• 7:53
  the.
• 7:53
  You
• 7:53
  take
• 7:53
  the
• 7:53
  rough
• 7:53
  with
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  smooth,
• 7:54
  don't
• 7:54
  you?
• 7:55
  You
• 7:55
  have
• 7:55
  that,
• 7:55
  that
• 7:56
  Robert,
• 7:56
  you
• 7:57
  know,
• 7:57
  life
• 7:57
  on
• 7:57
  a
• 7:57
  farm
• 7:57
  in
• 7:58
  Kelso.
• 7:59
  Who
• 7:59
  do
• 7:59
  you
• 8:00
  speak
• 8:00
  to?
• 8:00
  I
• 8:00
  mean,
• 8:00
  obviously
• 8:01
  John's
• 8:01
  at
• 8:01
  the
• 8:01
  end
• 8:01
  of
• 8:01
  the
• 8:01
  phone
• 8:02
  and
• 8:02
  he's
• 8:02
  mentions
• 8:02
  that
• 8:03
  you
• 8:03
  chat.
• 8:03
  But
• 8:04
  do
• 8:04
  you
• 8:04
  have
• 8:04
  a
• 8:04
  go
• 8:04
  to
• 8:05
  or
• 8:06
  have
• 8:06
  a
• 8:06
  sort
• 8:07
  of
• 8:07
  pick
• 8:07
  up
• 8:07
  the
• 8:07
  phone
• 8:08
  and
• 8:08
  chat
• 8:08
  to
• 8:09
  anyone?
• 8:10
  Yeah,
• 8:10
  obviously
• 8:11
  it's
• 8:11
  a
• 8:11
  busy
• 8:11
  farm.
• 8:12
  We've
• 8:12
  got
• 8:12
  full
• 8:12
  time
• 8:13
  members
• 8:13
  of
• 8:13
  staff.
• 8:14
  My
• 8:14
  two
• 8:14
  boys
• 8:14
  are
• 8:14
  involved
• 8:15
  in
• 8:15
  the
• 8:15
  farm,
• 8:15
  my
• 8:16
  wife's
• 8:16
  involved
• 8:16
  in
• 8:16
  the
• 8:17
  farm,
• 8:17
  although
• 8:17
  she
• 8:18
  works
• 8:18
  in
• 8:18
  the
• 8:18
  local
• 8:18
  showground
• 8:19
  at
• 8:19
  the
• 8:19
  moment.
• 8:20
  My
• 8:20
  parents
• 8:21
  are
• 8:21
  still
• 8:21
  about,
• 8:21
  they're
• 8:21
  in
• 8:22
  Kelso,
• 8:22
  retired.
• 8:23
  Dad
• 8:23
  always
• 8:24
  comes
• 8:24
  in
• 8:24
  and
• 8:24
  about
• 8:25
  and
• 8:25
  keeps
• 8:25
  the
• 8:25
  boys
• 8:26
  and
• 8:26
  myself
• 8:26
  on
• 8:26
  their
• 8:27
  toes
• 8:27
  and
• 8:28
  questions
• 8:28
  why
• 8:28
  you're
• 8:29
  doing
• 8:29
  that
• 8:29
  and
• 8:29
  you
• 8:29
  should
• 8:30
  be
• 8:30
  doing
• 8:30
  it
• 8:30
  this
• 8:30
  way.
• 8:31
  And
• 8:31
  I've
• 8:31
  also
• 8:31
  got
• 8:32
  two
• 8:32
  brothers
• 8:32
  that
• 8:32
  I'm
• 8:33
  very
• 8:33
  close
• 8:33
  with
• 8:33
  and
• 8:33
  I'll
• 8:34
  speak
• 8:34
  to
• 8:34
  them
• 8:34
  most
• 8:35
  days
• 8:35
  as
• 8:35
  well.
• 8:36
  As
• 8:36
  a
• 8:36
  family.
• 8:36
  We're
• 8:36
  really,
• 8:37
  really
• 8:38
  close
• 8:38
  and
• 8:38
  get
• 8:38
  on
• 8:39
  well.
• 8:39
  Brothers
• 8:40
  in
• 8:40
  the
• 8:40
  home
• 8:40
  farms
• 8:41
  18
• 8:41
  miles
• 8:41
  away,
• 8:42
  so
• 8:42
  don't
• 8:42
  see
• 8:43
  them
• 8:43
  every
• 8:43
  day
• 8:43
  but
• 8:43
  probably
• 8:44
  we'll
• 8:44
  have
• 8:44
  a
• 8:44
  chat
• 8:45
  with
• 8:45
  them
• 8:45
  most
• 8:46
  days
• 8:46
  if
• 8:46
  there's
• 8:47
  issues.
• 8:47
  A
• 8:48
  lot
• 8:48
  of
• 8:48
  farmers
• 8:48
  just
• 8:49
  farm,
• 8:50
  don't
• 8:50
  do
• 8:51
  other
• 8:51
  things.
• 8:51
  But
• 8:51
  You've
• 8:52
  had
• 8:52
  this
• 8:52
  role
• 8:52
  within
• 8:53
  Agri
• 8:54
  Scot
• 8:54
  and
• 8:54
  then
• 8:55
  you're
• 8:55
  moving
• 8:55
  on
• 8:55
  to
• 8:55
  this
• 8:55
  leadership
• 8:56
  role
• 8:56
  within
• 8:56
  NFU
• 8:57
  Scotland.
• 8:58
  What's
• 8:58
  the
• 8:58
  driver
• 8:58
  there?
• 8:59
  Why
• 8:59
  do
• 8:59
  you
• 8:59
  want
• 8:59
  to
• 9:00
  be
• 9:00
  involved
• 9:00
  in
• 9:00
  those
• 9:01
  agencies?
• 9:02
  Well,
• 9:02
  one
• 9:02
  is
• 9:02
  it's
• 9:02
  history
• 9:03
  repeating
• 9:03
  itself.
• 9:03
  When
• 9:04
  I
• 9:04
  was
• 9:04
  in
• 9:04
  my
• 9:04
  20s,
• 9:04
  my
• 9:05
  dad
• 9:05
  took
• 9:05
  a
• 9:06
  chairmanship
• 9:06
  job
• 9:06
  of
• 9:07
  a
• 9:07
  local
• 9:07
  auction
• 9:07
  company
• 9:08
  and
• 9:08
  was
• 9:08
  off
• 9:08
  the
• 9:08
  farm
• 9:09
  four
• 9:09
  days
• 9:09
  a
• 9:09
  week,
• 9:10
  probably,
• 9:10
  and
• 9:11
  he
• 9:11
  said
• 9:11
  that
• 9:11
  the
• 9:12
  boys
• 9:12
  will
• 9:12
  run
• 9:12
  the
• 9:12
  business
• 9:12
  and
• 9:13
  get
• 9:13
  on
• 9:13
  with
• 9:13
  it
• 9:13
  and
• 9:14
  it's
• 9:14
  about
• 9:14
  handing
• 9:14
  over
• 9:15
  to
• 9:15
  the
• 9:15
  next
• 9:15
  generation.
• 9:16
  So
• 9:17
  my
• 9:17
  two
• 9:18
  boys,
• 9:18
  Andrew
• 9:18
  and
• 9:18
  Harry,
• 9:19
  are
• 9:19
  26
• 9:19
  and
• 9:20
  23,
• 9:20
  and
• 9:21
  it's
• 9:21
  about
• 9:21
  giving
• 9:21
  them
• 9:22
  the
• 9:22
  opportunity
• 9:22
  to
• 9:23
  take
• 9:23
  a
• 9:23
  role
• 9:23
  in
• 9:23
  leadership
• 9:24
  and
• 9:24
  run
• 9:24
  the
• 9:25
  business
• 9:25
  without
• 9:25
  dad
• 9:26
  looking
• 9:26
  over
• 9:26
  their
• 9:27
  shoulders
• 9:27
  or
• 9:28
  being
• 9:28
  a
• 9:28
  pain
• 9:28
  in
• 9:28
  the
• 9:28
  backside,
• 9:29
  as
• 9:29
  some
• 9:29
  would
• 9:29
  say,
• 9:30
  you
• 9:30
  know.
• 9:30
  So
• 9:31
  I'm
• 9:31
  always
• 9:31
  on
• 9:31
  the
• 9:32
  end
• 9:32
  of
• 9:32
  the
• 9:32
  phone,
• 9:32
  but
• 9:33
  you
• 9:33
  have
• 9:33
  to
• 9:33
  hand
• 9:33
  over
• 9:34
  the
• 9:34
  reins
• 9:34
  at
• 9:34
  some
• 9:34
  point
• 9:35
  and
• 9:35
  give
• 9:35
  the
• 9:35
  youngsters
• 9:35
  that
• 9:36
  leg
• 9:36
  up
• 9:36
  and
• 9:37
  give
• 9:37
  them
• 9:37
  the
• 9:37
  opportunity
• 9:38
  to
• 9:38
  make
• 9:38
  their
• 9:38
  decisions
• 9:39
  and
• 9:39
  run
• 9:39
  the
• 9:39
  business.
• 9:40
  And
• 9:40
  if
• 9:40
  you
• 9:40
  don't
• 9:41
  go
• 9:41
  and
• 9:41
  do
• 9:41
  these
• 9:41
  roles,
• 9:42
  why
• 9:42
  am
• 9:43
  I
• 9:43
  vice
• 9:43
  president
• 9:43
  of
• 9:44
  the
• 9:44
  National
• 9:44
  Farmers
• 9:44
  Union?
• 9:45
  I
• 9:45
  want
• 9:46
  to
• 9:46
  see
• 9:46
  a
• 9:46
  future
• 9:46
  for
• 9:46
  the
• 9:46
  next
• 9:47
  generation
• 9:47
  and
• 9:47
  if
• 9:48
  I
• 9:48
  can
• 9:48
  shape
• 9:48
  something
• 9:49
  or
• 9:49
  do
• 9:50
  something
• 9:50
  within
• 9:50
  policy
• 9:50
  or
• 9:51
  within
• 9:51
  government
• 9:51
  or
• 9:52
  the
• 9:52
  use
• 9:53
  of
• 9:53
  land,
• 9:54
  make
• 9:54
  sure
• 9:54
  we
• 9:55
  have
• 9:55
  got
• 9:55
  a
• 9:55
  sustainable,
• 9:56
  profitable
• 9:57
  agricultural
• 9:58
  system
• 9:59
  business
• 9:59
  in
• 10:00
  Scotland,
• 10:00
  I'll
• 10:01
  achieve
• 10:01
  something.
• 10:02
  But
• 10:02
  I
• 10:02
  might
• 10:02
  not
• 10:02
  achieve
• 10:03
  that.
• 10:03
  But,
• 10:03
  you
• 10:03
  know,
• 10:04
  we've
• 10:04
  got
• 10:04
  it,
• 10:04
  we've
• 10:04
  got
• 10:04
  to
• 10:04
  try.
• 10:05
  Somebody's
• 10:05
  got
• 10:05
  to
• 10:05
  get
• 10:05
  out
• 10:06
  there
• 10:06
  and
• 10:07
  shape
• 10:07
  agriculture.
• 10:08
  So
• 10:09
  that's.
• 10:09
  My
• 10:09
  driver
• 10:10
  is
• 10:10
  the
• 10:10
  next
• 10:10
  generation.
• 10:11
  And
• 10:11
  John's
• 10:12
  exactly
• 10:12
  the
• 10:12
  same.
• 10:12
  You
• 10:12
  know,
• 10:12
  he's
• 10:13
  got
• 10:13
  two
• 10:13
  boys,
• 10:13
  you
• 10:14
  know,
• 10:14
  we
• 10:14
  all
• 10:15
  want
• 10:15
  to
• 10:15
  try
• 10:15
  and
• 10:16
  make
• 10:16
  life
• 10:16
  better
• 10:17
  for
• 10:17
  our.
• 10:18
  The
• 10:18
  next
• 10:18
  generation.
• 10:19
  Yeah,
• 10:19
  there's
• 10:19
  a
• 10:19
  lot
• 10:19
  of
• 10:20
  youngsters
• 10:20
  really
• 10:20
  keen
• 10:21
  to
• 10:21
  get
• 10:21
  into
• 10:21
  farming
• 10:21
  at
• 10:22
  the
• 10:22
  moment.
• 10:22
  I
• 10:22
  think
• 10:22
  it's
• 10:22
  quite.
• 10:23
  There
• 10:23
  is
• 10:24
  a
• 10:24
  lot
• 10:24
  of
• 10:24
  positivity
• 10:24
  there.
• 10:25
  It's
• 10:25
  just
• 10:25
  getting
• 10:25
  them
• 10:26
  that
• 10:26
  route
• 10:27
  into
• 10:27
  businesses
• 10:28
  or
• 10:28
  like
• 10:29
  Robert
• 10:29
  saying,
• 10:29
  get
• 10:30
  more
• 10:30
  responsibility
• 10:31
  because
• 10:31
  that's
• 10:31
  what
• 10:31
  you
• 10:31
  need
• 10:32
  at
• 10:32
  that
• 10:32
  age.
• 10:32
  You're
• 10:33
  young
• 10:33
  and
• 10:33
  hungry
• 10:34
  and
• 10:34
  got
• 10:34
  tons
• 10:34
  of
• 10:34
  good
• 10:35
  ideas.
• 10:35
  Not
• 10:36
  all
• 10:36
  farms
• 10:36
  are
• 10:36
  divisible
• 10:37
  though,
• 10:37
  are
• 10:37
  they,
• 10:37
  John?
• 10:38
  So,
• 10:38
  I
• 10:38
  mean,
• 10:38
  how
• 10:38
  do
• 10:39
  you
• 10:40
  plan
• 10:40
  for
• 10:40
  succession?
• 10:41
  That's
• 10:42
  a
• 10:42
  good
• 10:42
  question.
• 10:43
  Our
• 10:43
  eldest
• 10:44
  son,
• 10:44
  Sarboys
• 10:46
  will
• 10:46
  be
• 10:46
  20
• 10:47
  and
• 10:47
  17.
• 10:48
  Our
• 10:48
  eldest
• 10:48
  son
• 10:49
  is
• 10:49
  really,
• 10:49
  really
• 10:49
  keen
• 10:49
  and
• 10:50
  he's
• 10:50
  actually
• 10:50
  back
• 10:50
  here
• 10:51
  living
• 10:51
  on
• 10:51
  the
• 10:52
  island
• 10:52
  now,
• 10:52
  has
• 10:53
  a
• 10:53
  job
• 10:53
  with
• 10:53
  Karl
• 10:53
  Martin
• 10:54
  with
• 10:54
  local
• 10:54
  ferry
• 10:55
  and
• 10:55
  he
• 10:55
  was
• 10:55
  saying
• 10:56
  to.
• 10:56
  I
• 10:56
  heard
• 10:57
  Jamie,
• 10:57
  youngest
• 10:57
  one,
• 10:58
  saying
• 10:58
  to
• 10:58
  him,
• 10:58
  if
• 10:58
  we
• 10:58
  don't
• 10:59
  take
• 11:00
  on
• 11:00
  the
• 11:00
  farm,
• 11:01
  that'll
• 11:01
  be
• 11:01
  the
• 11:01
  end
• 11:02
  and
• 11:02
  that'll
• 11:02
  be
• 11:02
  the.
• 11:03
  I
• 11:03
  think
• 11:03
  it's
• 11:03
  the
• 11:03
  sixth
• 11:04
  or
• 11:04
  seventh
• 11:04
  generation
• 11:05
  of
• 11:05
  McInnes
• 11:05
  that
• 11:06
  are
• 11:06
  farmed
• 11:06
  here
• 11:06
  at
• 11:06
  Kovrig.
• 11:07
  And
• 11:07
  Carmen
• 11:08
  just
• 11:08
  turned
• 11:08
  to
• 11:08
  him,
• 11:08
  don't
• 11:08
  worry,
• 11:09
  I've
• 11:09
  got
• 11:09
  this,
• 11:09
  you
• 11:10
  don't
• 11:10
  need
• 11:10
  to
• 11:10
  worry
• 11:10
  about
• 11:10
  it.
• 11:11
  And
• 11:11
  then
• 11:11
  Jamie
• 11:11
  went,
• 11:12
  well,
• 11:12
  you're
• 11:13
  assuming
• 11:13
  then,
• 11:13
  I
• 11:14
  don't
• 11:14
  want
• 11:14
  to
• 11:14
  take
• 11:14
  on
• 11:15
  the
• 11:15
  farm.
• 11:15
  So
• 11:15
  I
• 11:15
  was
• 11:15
  going,
• 11:15
  right,
• 11:16
  you
• 11:16
  boys
• 11:16
  are
• 11:16
  going
• 11:16
  to
• 11:17
  have
• 11:17
  to
• 11:17
  have
• 11:17
  a
• 11:17
  chat
• 11:17
  about
• 11:17
  that.
• 11:18
  Do
• 11:19
  you
• 11:19
  chat
• 11:19
  about
• 11:19
  it?
• 11:19
  I
• 11:19
  mean,
• 11:20
  that's
• 11:20
  the
• 11:20
  nub
• 11:20
  of
• 11:20
  a
• 11:21
  lot
• 11:21
  of
• 11:21
  these
• 11:21
  problems,
• 11:21
  isn't
• 11:22
  it,
• 11:22
  that
• 11:22
  succession
• 11:23
  planning
• 11:23
  doesn't
• 11:24
  happen
• 11:24
  until
• 11:24
  it's
• 11:25
  too
• 11:25
  late
• 11:25
  or
• 11:25
  there's
• 11:26
  no
• 11:26
  planning
• 11:26
  done.
• 11:27
  So
• 11:27
  how
• 11:27
  open
• 11:28
  are
• 11:28
  you
• 11:28
  with
• 11:28
  your
• 11:29
  boys?
• 11:29
  We
• 11:29
  do
• 11:30
  chat
• 11:30
  about
• 11:30
  it
• 11:30
  a
• 11:30
  lot.
• 11:30
  I
• 11:31
  think
• 11:31
  Cameron
• 11:31
  would
• 11:32
  like
• 11:32
  me
• 11:32
  to
• 11:32
  disappear
• 11:33
  already.
• 11:33
  But
• 11:33
  you
• 11:34
  asked
• 11:34
  my
• 11:34
  favourite
• 11:34
  age
• 11:35
  earlier
• 11:35
  on.
• 11:35
  I
• 11:35
  said
• 11:36
  17.
• 11:36
  I
• 11:36
  also,
• 11:36
  in
• 11:37
  my
• 11:37
  head
• 11:37
  think
• 11:37
  I'm
• 11:37
  24.
• 11:38
  So
• 11:39
  I've
• 11:39
  got
• 11:39
  an
• 11:39
  awful
• 11:39
  lot
• 11:39
  of,
• 11:39
  like,
• 11:40
  years
• 11:40
  left
• 11:40
  to
• 11:40
  give.
• 11:41
  And
• 11:41
  Cameron,
• 11:41
  I
• 11:42
  think
• 11:42
  they
• 11:42
  keep
• 11:42
  calling
• 11:43
  you
• 11:43
  the
• 11:43
  old
• 11:43
  boy.
• 11:43
  And
• 11:44
  wouldn't
• 11:44
  you
• 11:44
  driven
• 11:44
  out.
• 11:44
  And
• 11:45
  I
• 11:45
  was
• 11:45
  going,
• 11:45
  no,
• 11:45
  not
• 11:46
  yet,
• 11:46
  guys,
• 11:46
  come
• 11:46
  on.
• 11:47
  I
• 11:47
  think
• 11:47
  that's
• 11:47
  the
• 11:48
  curse
• 11:48
  of
• 11:48
  old
• 11:48
  age,
• 11:48
  isn't
• 11:49
  it,
• 11:49
  that
• 11:49
  whatever
• 11:49
  your
• 11:50
  body
• 11:50
  and
• 11:50
  everything
• 11:50
  else
• 11:51
  is
• 11:51
  doing
• 11:51
  in
• 11:51
  your
• 11:51
  head,
• 11:52
  you're
• 11:52
  still
• 11:52
  early
• 11:53
  20s,
• 11:53
  younger.
• 11:53
  Yeah,
• 11:54
  yeah.
• 11:55
  But
• 11:55
  no,
• 11:56
  we
• 11:56
  will
• 11:56
  need
• 11:56
  to
• 11:56
  have
• 11:56
  more.
• 11:57
  We
• 11:57
  do
• 11:57
  joke
• 11:58
  about
• 11:58
  it,
• 11:58
  we
• 11:58
  do
• 11:58
  talk
• 11:58
  about
• 11:59
  it,
• 11:59
  but
• 11:59
  I
• 11:59
  suppose
• 11:59
  we'll
• 12:00
  need
• 12:00
  to
• 12:00
  have
• 12:00
  more
• 12:00
  serious
• 12:01
  conversations
• 12:02
  as
• 12:02
  the
• 12:02
  next
• 12:03
  few
• 12:03
  years
• 12:03
  pass.
• 13:04
  Robert,
• 13:05
  I
• 13:05
  mean,
• 13:05
  you
• 13:06
  spoke
• 13:06
  about
• 13:06
  your
• 13:06
  boys
• 13:07
  being
• 13:07
  involved,
• 13:07
  the
• 13:07
  business
• 13:08
  and
• 13:08
  you
• 13:09
  having,
• 13:09
  you
• 13:10
  know,
• 13:10
  taken
• 13:10
  what
• 13:10
  your
• 13:11
  father
• 13:11
  did
• 13:11
  for
• 13:11
  you
• 13:12
  and
• 13:12
  that's
• 13:12
  lovely
• 13:12
  that
• 13:12
  he.
• 13:13
  You.
• 13:14
  That's
• 13:14
  a
• 13:14
  really
• 13:14
  positive
• 13:15
  experience.
• 13:15
  Yeah,
• 13:16
  well,
• 13:16
  my
• 13:16
  grandfather
• 13:17
  had
• 13:17
  three
• 13:17
  sons
• 13:18
  and
• 13:18
  two
• 13:18
  daughters
• 13:19
  and
• 13:19
  he
• 13:19
  set
• 13:19
  them
• 13:20
  all
• 13:20
  up
• 13:20
  in
• 13:20
  a
• 13:20
  farm
• 13:21
  each.
• 13:22
  My
• 13:22
  father,
• 13:22
  there's
• 13:23
  three
• 13:23
  boys
• 13:23
  in
• 13:23
  my
• 13:24
  generation,
• 13:24
  he
• 13:25
  set
• 13:25
  all
• 13:25
  of
• 13:25
  us
• 13:25
  up
• 13:25
  on
• 13:25
  a
• 13:26
  farm
• 13:26
  each.
• 13:26
  And
• 13:27
  I
• 13:27
  suppose
• 13:27
  the
• 13:27
  challenge
• 13:28
  for
• 13:28
  me
• 13:28
  is
• 13:28
  if
• 13:28
  my
• 13:29
  boys
• 13:29
  both
• 13:29
  want
• 13:30
  to
• 13:30
  farm
• 13:30
  and
• 13:30
  it
• 13:30
  looks
• 13:31
  as
• 13:31
  if
• 13:31
  they
• 13:31
  do
• 13:31
  want
• 13:31
  to
• 13:31
  farm,
• 13:32
  is
• 13:32
  having
• 13:32
  a
• 13:33
  sustainable
• 13:33
  business,
• 13:34
  that
• 13:34
  they
• 13:34
  can
• 13:34
  both
• 13:35
  have
• 13:35
  a
• 13:36
  decent
• 13:36
  life
• 13:36
  and
• 13:37
  profitability
• 13:38
  off
• 13:38
  the
• 13:38
  land
• 13:39
  that
• 13:39
  we're
• 13:40
  farming
• 13:40
  at
• 13:40
  the
• 13:40
  moment.
• 13:41
  How
• 13:41
  much
• 13:41
  of
• 13:41
  your
• 13:41
  time
• 13:42
  is
• 13:42
  NFU
• 13:42
  at
• 13:42
  the
• 13:43
  moment
• 13:44
  is
• 13:44
  taken
• 13:44
  up
• 13:44
  by

  nfu?
• 13:45
  Is
• 13:45
  it
• 13:45
  three
• 13:45
  or
• 13:45
  four
• 13:45
  days
• 13:45
  a
• 13:46
  week?
• 13:46
  It's
• 13:46
  supposed
• 13:46
  to
• 13:46
  be
• 13:47
  three
• 13:47
  days,
• 13:47
  but
• 13:47
  it's
• 13:48
  just
• 13:48
  about
• 13:48
  full
• 13:48
  time.
• 13:49
  There's
• 13:49
  something
• 13:50
  every
• 13:50
  day.
• 13:51
  Yeah.
• 13:51
  So
• 13:51
  it's
• 13:52
  a
• 13:52
  big
• 13:52
  undertaking.
• 13:52
  And
• 13:53
  how
• 13:53
  much
• 13:54
  pressure
• 13:54
  do
• 13:54
  you
• 13:54
  feel
• 13:56
  from
• 13:56
  that?
• 13:57
  A
• 13:57
  lot
• 13:57
  of
• 13:57
  pressure,
• 13:58
  yeah.
• 13:59
  The
• 13:59
  role
• 14:00
  of
• 14:00
  being
• 14:00
  chairman
• 14:00
  of
• 14:00
  AgriScott
• 14:01
  was
• 14:01
  an
• 14:02
  absolute
• 14:02
  pleasure
• 14:02
  and
• 14:03
  an
• 14:03
  honour
• 14:03
  to
• 14:03
  do
• 14:03
  that.
• 14:03
  And
• 14:04
  the
• 14:04
  pressure
• 14:04
  wasn't
• 14:04
  There
• 14:05
  because
• 14:06
  there
• 14:06
  was
• 14:06
  a
• 14:06
  fantastic
• 14:06
  team
• 14:07
  in
• 14:07
  place
• 14:07
  and
• 14:07
  Martin
• 14:08
  and
• 14:08
  John
• 14:08
  did
• 14:09
  it
• 14:09
  all.
• 14:09
  It
• 14:09
  was
• 14:09
  just
• 14:09
  a
• 14:09
  case
• 14:10
  of
• 14:10
  facilitating
• 14:10
  meetings
• 14:11
  and
• 14:11
  just
• 14:11
  doing
• 14:11
  little
• 14:12
  bits.
• 14:12
  But
• 14:13
  being
• 14:13
  vice
• 14:13
  president
• 14:14
  or
• 14:14
  president
• 14:15
  of
• 14:15
  the
• 14:15
  Farmers
• 14:16
  Union
• 14:16
  is
• 14:17
  a
• 14:17
  different
• 14:17
  pressure.
• 14:18
  There's
• 14:18
  so
• 14:19
  many
• 14:19
  things
• 14:19
  going
• 14:19
  on
• 14:20
  within
• 14:20
  policy,
• 14:20
  within
• 14:21
  land
• 14:21
  use,
• 14:22
  environment,
• 14:23
  biodiversity,
• 14:24
  you
• 14:24
  name
• 14:25
  it,
• 14:25
  it's
• 14:25
  come
• 14:25
  across
• 14:25
  our
• 14:26
  table.
• 14:26
  So
• 14:26
  it's
• 14:26
  been
• 14:27
  a
• 14:27
  bit
• 14:27
  of
• 14:27
  a
• 14:27
  quick
• 14:28
  learning
• 14:28
  curve
• 14:29
  of
• 14:29
  all
• 14:29
  these
• 14:29
  sectors
• 14:30
  and
• 14:30
  things
• 14:30
  that
• 14:30
  I've
• 14:30
  not
• 14:31
  been
• 14:31
  involved
• 14:31
  in.
• 14:32
  You
• 14:32
  know,
• 14:32
  pigs
• 14:32
  and
• 14:32
  poultry,
• 14:33
  I've
• 14:33
  not
• 14:33
  been
• 14:33
  involved
• 14:34
  in,
• 14:34
  horticulture
• 14:35
  I've
• 14:35
  not
• 14:35
  been
• 14:35
  involved
• 14:35
  in.
• 14:35
  You've
• 14:36
  got
• 14:36
  to
• 14:36
  get
• 14:36
  up
• 14:36
  to
• 14:36
  speed
• 14:37
  with
• 14:37
  all
• 14:37
  these
• 14:37
  things
• 14:38
  and
• 14:38
  deal
• 14:38
  with
• 14:39
  issues
• 14:40
  and
• 14:40
  we've
• 14:40
  all
• 14:40
  got
• 14:41
  issues
• 14:41
  and
• 14:41
  we've
• 14:41
  all
• 14:42
  probably
• 14:42
  got
• 14:42
  the
• 14:42
  same
• 14:42
  problems,
• 14:43
  but
• 14:43
  it's
• 14:43
  just
• 14:44
  pulling
• 14:44
  it
• 14:44
  all
• 14:44
  together.
• 14:45
  So,
• 14:46
  yeah,
• 14:46
  a
• 14:46
  lot
• 14:46
  of
• 14:47
  pressure.
• 14:47
  You
• 14:48
  must
• 14:48
  be
• 14:48
  really
• 14:48
  relishing
• 14:49
  that
• 14:49
  challenge.
• 14:50
  But
• 14:50
  how
• 14:50
  do
• 14:51
  you
• 14:51
  press
• 14:52
  the
• 14:52
  sort
• 14:52
  of
• 14:52
  reset
• 14:53
  button?
• 14:53
  How
• 14:53
  do
• 14:53
  you
• 14:54
  decompress?
• 14:55
  So
• 14:56
  for
• 14:56
  me
• 14:56
  I'm
• 14:56
  involved
• 14:57
  in
• 14:57
  the
• 14:58
  point
• 14:58
  to
• 14:58
  points
• 14:58
  I
• 14:59
  do,
• 14:59
  starting
• 14:59
  at
• 14:59
  our
• 15:00
  local
• 15:01
  point
• 15:01
  to
• 15:01
  point
• 15:01
  track
• 15:02
  during
• 15:02
  the
• 15:03
  season.
• 15:04
  But
• 15:04
  if
• 15:04
  I
• 15:04
  find
• 15:04
  a
• 15:05
  stressful
• 15:06
  day,
• 15:06
  I'll
• 15:07
  come
• 15:07
  home,
• 15:08
  switch
• 15:08
  the
• 15:08
  phone
• 15:08
  off
• 15:08
  when
• 15:09
  I
• 15:09
  quite
• 15:09
  like
• 15:09
  going
• 15:09
  to
• 15:09
  the
• 15:10
  workshop
• 15:11
  and
• 15:11
  have
• 15:11
  a
• 15:11
  welder
• 15:11
  in
• 15:12
  my
• 15:12
  hand.
• 15:12
  I
• 15:12
  love
• 15:13
  manufacturing
• 15:13
  things,
• 15:14
  making
• 15:14
  gates,
• 15:15
  making
• 15:16
  infrastructure
• 15:16
  and
• 15:17
  doing
• 15:17
  improvements
• 15:17
  on
• 15:17
  the
• 15:18
  farm.
• 15:18
  So
• 15:18
  that's
• 15:19
  a
• 15:19
  really
• 15:19
  satisfying
• 15:20
  thing
• 15:21
  that
• 15:21
  I
• 15:21
  really
• 15:21
  like
• 15:22
  doing.
• 15:22
  And
• 15:24
  also
• 15:24
  problem
• 15:24
  solving.
• 15:25
  You
• 15:25
  know,
• 15:25
  if
• 15:26
  John
• 15:26
  picks
• 15:26
  up
• 15:26
  the
• 15:26
  phone
• 15:27
  and
• 15:27
  he's
• 15:27
  got
• 15:27
  a
• 15:27
  problem,
• 15:27
  we'll
• 15:28
  sit
• 15:28
  there,
• 15:28
  we'll
• 15:28
  discuss
• 15:28
  it
• 15:29
  and
• 15:29
  I
• 15:30
  get
• 15:30
  a
• 15:30
  lot
• 15:30
  of
• 15:30
  satisfaction
• 15:31
  out
• 15:31
  of
• 15:31
  helping
• 15:32
  people
• 15:32
  and
• 15:33
  solving
• 15:33
  problems
• 15:34
  that
• 15:34
  people
• 15:35
  have
• 15:35
  got.
• 15:35
  And
• 15:35
  I
• 15:36
  suppose
• 15:36
  that's
• 15:36
  where
• 15:36
  the
• 15:36
  union
• 15:37
  comes
• 15:37
  in
• 15:37
  as
• 15:37
  well.
• 15:37
  You
• 15:37
  know,
• 15:38
  you
• 15:38
  do
• 15:38
  a
• 15:38
  lot
• 15:38
  of
• 15:38
  that
• 15:38
  problem
• 15:39
  solving
• 15:39
  and
• 15:40
  speaking
• 15:40
  to
• 15:40
  members.
• 15:41
  Yeah,
• 15:42
  that
• 15:42
  is
• 15:42
  very
• 15:42
  satisfying
• 15:43
  if
• 15:44
  you
• 15:44
  can
• 15:44
  solve
• 15:44
  a
• 15:44
  problem
• 15:45
  for
• 15:45
  somebody
• 15:45
  and
• 15:45
  they
• 15:46
  go
• 15:46
  away
• 15:46
  happy.
• 15:47
  I
• 15:47
  mean,
• 15:47
  John,
• 15:47
  it's
• 15:48
  a
• 15:48
  unique.
• 15:48
  Isn't
• 15:48
  it
• 15:49
  unique
• 15:49
  thought
• 15:49
  to
• 15:49
  actually
• 15:50
  switch
• 15:50
  off
• 15:50
  your
• 15:50
  phone.
• 15:51
  How
• 15:51
  often
• 15:51
  do
• 15:51
  you
• 15:51
  switch
• 15:52
  off
• 15:52
  your
• 15:52
  phone?
• 15:53
  Not
• 15:53
  often
• 15:54
  enough.
• 15:54
  I
• 15:54
  probably.
• 15:55
  Yeah,
• 15:55
  I
• 15:56
  have
• 15:56
  mine
• 15:56
  on
• 15:56
  all
• 15:56
  the
• 15:56
  time.
• 15:57
  I'm
• 15:57
  quite
• 15:57
  guilty
• 15:58
  of
• 15:58
  that.
• 15:59
  The
• 15:59
  agricult
• 16:00
  work
• 16:00
  though,
• 16:00
  it's
• 16:00
  quite.
• 16:01
  There'll
• 16:01
  be
• 16:02
  folk
• 16:02
  that
• 16:02
  you've
• 16:02
  maybe
• 16:02
  sent
• 16:03
  an
• 16:03
  email
• 16:03
  to
• 16:03
  and
• 16:03
  then
• 16:04
  they'll
• 16:04
  call
• 16:04
  you
• 16:04
  and
• 16:05
  if
• 16:05
  you
• 16:05
  can
• 16:05
  take
• 16:05
  that
• 16:06
  call
• 16:06
  and
• 16:06
  answer
• 16:06
  the
• 16:06
  question,
• 16:07
  when
• 16:07
  you're
• 16:07
  out
• 16:07
  and
• 16:07
  about
• 16:07
  in
• 16:08
  the
• 16:08
  farm,
• 16:08
  you
• 16:08
  feel
• 16:08
  that
• 16:09
  you're
• 16:09
  be
• 16:09
  more
• 16:10
  efficient
• 16:10
  and
• 16:11
  getting
• 16:11
  the
• 16:11
  job
• 16:11
  done.
• 16:12
  You
• 16:12
  tick
• 16:13
  a
• 16:13
  box.
• 16:13
  But
• 16:13
  probably
• 16:14
  should.
• 16:14
  Although
• 16:15
  to
• 16:15
  be
• 16:15
  fair,
• 16:15
  like
• 16:15
  I've
• 16:16
  quite.
• 16:16
  I
• 16:16
  do
• 16:16
  have
• 16:17
  times
• 16:17
  I
• 16:17
  just
• 16:17
  said
• 16:18
  I
• 16:18
  don't
• 16:18
  have
• 16:18
  a
• 16:18
  Signal,
• 16:19
  which
• 16:19
  you
• 16:19
  don't
• 16:19
  out
• 16:19
  here
• 16:20
  and
• 16:20
  you
• 16:20
  know
• 16:20
  if
• 16:20
  you're
• 16:20
  away
• 16:21
  fencing
• 16:22
  a
• 16:22
  hill
• 16:22
  somewhere
• 16:23
  and
• 16:23
  you're
• 16:23
  out
• 16:23
  the
• 16:23
  way,
• 16:24
  you
• 16:24
  don't
• 16:24
  have
• 16:24
  a
• 16:24
  signal
• 16:24
  there
• 16:25
  and
• 16:25
  that
• 16:25
  is
• 16:25
  quite
• 16:25
  good.
• 16:26
  So
• 16:26
  you
• 16:26
  can
• 16:26
  get
• 16:26
  away
• 16:27
  from
• 16:27
  it.
• 16:27
  Oh,
• 16:27
  so
• 16:27
  that's
• 16:28
  every
• 16:29
  time
• 16:29
  I
• 16:29
  phone
• 16:29
  you
• 16:30
  and
• 16:30
  you
• 16:30
  see
• 16:30
  my
• 16:30
  name
• 16:30
  coming
• 16:31
  up
• 16:31
  on
• 16:31
  the
• 16:31
  phone.
• 16:31
  Oh,
• 16:31
  no.
• 16:31
  Signal.
• 16:32
  Not
• 16:32
  answer
• 16:32
  that.
• 16:34
  No,
• 16:34
  he's
• 16:34
  just
• 16:35
  said,
• 16:35
  remember
• 16:35
  Robert,
• 16:36
  he's
• 16:36
  just
• 16:36
  said
• 16:36
  he
• 16:36
  never
• 16:36
  switches
• 16:37
  it
• 16:37
  off.
• 16:37
  So
• 16:37
  there's
• 16:37
  no
• 16:38
  excuse.
• 16:39
  Apart
• 16:39
  from
• 16:39
  that
• 16:40
  old
• 16:40
  signal,
• 16:40
  that
• 16:41
  old
• 16:41
  signal
• 16:41
  one.
• 16:41
  Oh,
• 16:42
  it's
• 16:42
  a
• 16:42
  black
• 16:42
  spot.
• 16:42
  It's
• 16:43
  a
• 16:43
  black
• 16:43
  spot.
• 16:44
  My
• 16:44
  biggest
• 16:44
  problem
• 16:44
  at
• 16:45
  the
• 16:45
  moment
• 16:45
  is
• 16:45
  I've
• 16:45
  got
• 16:46
  an
• 16:46
  older
• 16:46
  iPhone,
• 16:47
  I
• 16:47
  think
• 16:47
  I
• 16:47
  need
• 16:48
  to
• 16:48
  replace
• 16:48
  the
• 16:48
  battery.
• 16:49
  So
• 16:49
  quite
• 16:49
  often
• 16:49
  it
• 16:50
  actually,
• 16:51
  the
• 16:51
  last
• 16:51
  few
• 16:51
  times
• 16:51
  has
• 16:52
  happened
• 16:52
  to
• 16:52
  be
• 16:52
  Robert
• 16:53
  little
• 16:53
  phone.
• 16:53
  And
• 16:54
  you'll
• 16:54
  look
• 16:54
  at
• 16:54
  it
• 16:54
  and
• 16:54
  think,
• 16:54
  oh,
• 16:55
  I've
• 16:55
  got
• 16:55
  5%,
• 16:56
  that's
• 16:56
  going
• 16:56
  to
• 16:56
  go
• 16:56
  really
• 16:57
  quick.
• 16:58
  Battery's
• 16:59
  dying.
• 17:00
  There's
• 17:00
  a
• 17:00
  lot
• 17:00
  to
• 17:00
  be
• 17:00
  said
• 17:01
  to
• 17:01
  be
• 17:01
  going
• 17:01
  back
• 17:01
  to
• 17:01
  the
• 17:01
  Nokia
• 17:02
  6310
• 17:03
  bricks.
• 17:04
  They'd
• 17:04
  lasted
• 17:05
  forever,
• 17:05
  didn't
• 17:05
  they?
• 17:08
  I
• 17:08
  think
• 17:08
  there
• 17:08
  is
• 17:09
  a
• 17:09
  bit
• 17:09
  of
• 17:09
  a
• 17:09
  movement,
• 17:09
  the
• 17:10
  shift
• 17:10
  towards
• 17:10
  going
• 17:11
  back
• 17:11
  to
• 17:11
  those
• 17:11
  sort
• 17:12
  of
• 17:12
  like
• 17:13
  those
• 17:13
  retro
• 17:13
  phones
• 17:14
  because
• 17:14
  they
• 17:15
  just
• 17:15
  don't
• 17:15
  allow
• 17:15
  you
• 17:16
  to
• 17:16
  do
• 17:16
  so
• 17:16
  much.
• 17:16
  John's
• 17:17
  right
• 17:17
  enough,
• 17:17
  though.
• 17:18
  If
• 17:19
  the
• 17:19
  phone
• 17:19
  rings
• 17:19
  and
• 17:19
  you
• 17:20
  answer
• 17:20
  it
• 17:20
  and
• 17:20
  you
• 17:21
  answer
• 17:21
  a
• 17:21
  question,
• 17:21
  it's
• 17:22
  sometimes
• 17:22
  an
• 17:22
  awful
• 17:22
  lot
• 17:23
  quicker
• 17:23
  than
• 17:23
  emails
• 17:24
  and
• 17:24
  texts
• 17:25
  and
• 17:25
  whatsapps.
• 17:25
  You
• 17:25
  know,
• 17:26
  if
• 17:26
  you
• 17:26
  just
• 17:26
  pick
• 17:26
  up
• 17:26
  the
• 17:26
  phone,
• 17:26
  you
• 17:27
  can
• 17:27
  have
• 17:27
  a
• 17:27
  quick
• 17:27
  chat
• 17:28
  and
• 17:29
  you
• 17:29
  know,
• 17:29
  the
• 17:29
  job's
• 17:30
  done
• 17:30
  and
• 17:30
  dusted.
• 17:32
  I
• 17:32
  think
• 17:32
  we
• 17:33
  were
• 17:33
  probably
• 17:34
  when
• 17:34
  the
• 17:34
  phones
• 17:35
  were
• 17:35
  tied
• 17:35
  to
• 17:36
  a
• 17:36
  cord,
• 17:36
  we
• 17:37
  were
• 17:37
  a
• 17:37
  lot
• 17:37
  freer.
• 17:38
  Mobile
• 17:39
  phones
• 17:39
  have
• 17:39
  made
• 17:40
  life
• 17:40
  busy,
• 17:41
  hectic
• 17:42
  and
• 17:42
  yeah,
• 17:43
  everybody
• 17:43
  thinks
• 17:44
  they
• 17:44
  should
• 17:44
  be
• 17:45
  contactable
• 17:45
  all
• 17:46
  the
• 17:46
  time,
• 17:46
  but
• 17:46
  when
• 17:47
  that
• 17:47
  phone
• 17:47
  was
• 17:48
  tied
• 17:48
  to
• 17:48
  the
• 17:48
  house,
• 17:49
  the
• 17:49
  pressure
• 17:50
  wasn't
• 17:50
  there.
• 17:51
  Yeah,
• 17:51
  you
• 17:52
  could,
• 17:52
  you
• 17:52
  couldn't
• 17:52
  organize
• 17:53
  an
• 17:53
  event
• 17:53
  now
• 17:54
  without
• 17:54
  it,
• 17:54
  I
• 17:54
  don't
• 17:54
  think.
• 17:55
  See,
• 17:55
  when
• 17:55
  you're
• 17:55
  on
• 17:55
  site
• 17:55
  at
• 17:55
  Ingleston
• 17:56
  and
• 17:56
  basically
• 17:56
  anyone
• 17:57
  can
• 17:57
  get
• 17:57
  in
• 17:57
  touch
• 17:57
  with
• 17:58
  you,
• 17:58
  you
• 17:58
  can
• 17:58
  contact
• 17:58
  anyone,
• 17:59
  you
• 17:59
  have
• 17:59
  a
• 18:00
  whole
• 18:00
  lot
• 18:00
  of
• 18:00
  information,
• 18:00
  your
• 18:01
  phone.
• 18:02
  But
• 18:02
  then
• 18:02
  if
• 18:02
  you're
• 18:02
  organizing
• 18:03
  an
• 18:03
  event
• 18:03
  and
• 18:03
  you
• 18:03
  had
• 18:04
  no
• 18:04
  mobile
• 18:04
  phone,
• 18:05
  it
• 18:05
  would
• 18:05
  also
• 18:05
  be
• 18:05
  a
• 18:05
  lot
• 18:05
  less
• 18:06
  stressful
• 18:06
  because
• 18:06
  nobody
• 18:07
  could
• 18:07
  get
• 18:07
  to
• 18:07
  you
• 18:08
  with
• 18:08
  a
• 18:08
  problem.
• 18:08
  So
• 18:08
  they
• 18:09
  would
• 18:09
  maybe
• 18:09
  have
• 18:09
  to
• 18:09
  try
• 18:09
  and
• 18:10
  solve
• 18:10
  some
• 18:10
  of
• 18:10
  them
• 18:10
  themselves,
• 18:11
  first
• 18:12
  of
• 18:12
  all,
• 18:12
  so
• 18:12
  it
• 18:12
  might
• 18:12
  be
• 18:12
  a
• 18:13
  bit
• 18:13
  easier.
• 18:13
  And
• 18:14
  I'm
• 18:14
  thinking
• 18:14
  about
• 18:14
  your
• 18:15
  kids,
• 18:15
  John,
• 18:15
  a
• 18:15
  little
• 18:16
  bit,
• 18:16
  you
• 18:16
  know,
• 18:16
  and
• 18:16
  I
• 18:17
  appreciate
• 18:17
  they've
• 18:18
  to
• 18:18
  school
• 18:18
  during
• 18:19
  the
• 18:19
  week,
• 18:19
  but
• 18:20
  them
• 18:20
  living
• 18:21
  on
• 18:21
  the
• 18:21
  island
• 18:21
  and,
• 18:22
  you
• 18:23
  know,
• 18:23
  the
• 18:23
  remoteness,
• 18:24
  but
• 18:24
  obviously
• 18:24
  Being
• 18:25
  part
• 18:25
  of
• 18:25
  a
• 18:25
  great
• 18:25
  community.
• 18:26
  But
• 18:26
  you
• 18:26
  know,
• 18:27
  the
• 18:27
  social
• 18:27
  media
• 18:28
  pressures
• 18:28
  and
• 18:29
  you
• 18:29
  know,
• 18:29
  how
• 18:29
  do
• 18:30
  you
• 18:30
  manage
• 18:30
  that?
• 18:30
  Are
• 18:30
  they
• 18:31
  good
• 18:31
  at
• 18:31
  managing
• 18:31
  themselves?
• 18:32
  My
• 18:32
  wife
• 18:33
  took
• 18:33
  care
• 18:33
  of
• 18:33
  that.
• 18:33
  More
• 18:33
  like
• 18:34
  Joanne
• 18:34
  definitely
• 18:34
  put
• 18:35
  limits
• 18:35
  on
• 18:35
  their
• 18:35
  phone
• 18:36
  and
• 18:36
  screen
• 18:36
  time
• 18:36
  and
• 18:37
  all
• 18:37
  that
• 18:37
  sort
• 18:37
  of
• 18:37
  stuff.
• 18:37
  Yeah.
• 18:38
  Because
• 18:38
  social
• 18:38
  media
• 18:39
  is
• 18:39
  a
• 18:40
  minefield
• 18:40
  I
• 18:41
  think
• 18:41
  at
• 18:41
  the
• 18:41
  moment
• 18:41
  for
• 18:42
  teenagers
• 18:42
  to
• 18:43
  navigate
• 18:43
  their
• 18:43
  way
• 18:43
  through.
• 18:44
  There's
• 18:44
  a
• 18:44
  lot
• 18:44
  of
• 18:44
  good
• 18:44
  on
• 18:45
  it,
• 18:45
  there's
• 18:45
  a
• 18:45
  lot
• 18:45
  of
• 18:45
  good
• 18:46
  things
• 18:46
  happen
• 18:46
  but
• 18:46
  there's
• 18:47
  also
• 18:47
  a
• 18:48
  lot
• 18:48
  of
• 18:48
  problems
• 18:48
  there.
• 18:49
  So
• 18:50
  we're
• 18:50
  lucky.
• 18:50
  Well,
• 18:50
  the
• 18:50
  boys
• 18:51
  are
• 18:51
  probably
• 18:51
  through
• 18:51
  it
• 18:51
  now,
• 18:52
  like
• 18:52
  they're
• 18:52
  old
• 18:53
  enough
• 18:53
  so
• 18:53
  it's
• 18:54
  fine.
• 18:54
  But
• 18:54
  yeah,
• 18:54
  I
• 18:55
  would
• 18:55
  not
• 18:55
  like
• 18:55
  to
• 18:55
  be
• 18:56
  a
• 18:56
  teenager
• 18:56
  now
• 18:57
  myself.
• 18:57
  Like
• 18:57
  starting
• 18:58
  off
• 18:58
  in
• 18:59
  high
• 18:59
  school
• 18:59
  and
• 19:00
  all
• 19:00
  the
• 19:00
  pitfalls
• 19:01
  of
• 19:01
  social
• 19:01
  media.
• 19:02
  No
• 19:03
  way.
• 19:04
  So
• 19:04
  how
• 19:04
  do
• 19:04
  you
• 19:04
  decompress
• 19:05
  on
• 19:05
  Iona?
• 19:06
  What's
• 19:06
  your
• 19:06
  go
• 19:06
  to?
• 19:08
  Probably
• 19:08
  golf.
• 19:09
  There's
• 19:09
  about
• 19:09
  12
• 19:10
  of
• 19:10
  us
• 19:10
  that
• 19:10
  play
• 19:11
  and
• 19:11
  so
• 19:11
  if
• 19:11
  you
• 19:11
  put
• 19:12
  a
• 19:12
  message
• 19:12
  out,
• 19:12
  there's
• 19:13
  always
• 19:13
  someone
• 19:13
  that'll
• 19:13
  be
• 19:14
  going
• 19:14
  for
• 19:14
  a
• 19:14
  hit
• 19:16
  or
• 19:16
  that
• 19:16
  will
• 19:16
  become
• 19:17
  available
• 19:17
  and
• 19:17
  you'll
• 19:18
  pick
• 19:18
  a
• 19:18
  time
• 19:18
  and
• 19:18
  just
• 19:18
  go.
• 19:19
  If
• 19:19
  you're
• 19:19
  an
• 19:19
  18
• 19:19
  hole
• 19:20
  golf
• 19:20
  course
• 19:20
  in
• 19:21
  Iona.
• 19:22
  18
• 19:22
  hole,
• 19:22
  natural
• 19:23
  course.
• 19:23
  Yeah.
• 19:23
  It's
• 19:24
  not
• 19:24
  just
• 19:24
  twice
• 19:24
  round
• 19:25
  nine.
• 19:25
  No,
• 19:26
  no,
• 19:26
  no,
• 19:26
  18
• 19:26
  hole.
• 19:27
  Some
• 19:27
  of
• 19:27
  them
• 19:27
  are
• 19:28
  a
• 19:28
  bit
• 19:28
  tight
• 19:28
  and
• 19:29
  we
• 19:29
  could
• 19:29
  do
• 19:30
  a
• 19:30
  wee
• 19:30
  bit
• 19:30
  more
• 19:30
  room
• 19:30
  between
• 19:31
  holes
• 19:32
  and
• 19:32
  tees.
• 19:32
  But
• 19:32
  no,
• 19:32
  it's
• 19:33
  18
• 19:33
  holes
• 19:33
  natural
• 19:33
  course.
• 19:34
  Quite
• 19:34
  a
• 19:34
  challenging
• 19:35
  course
• 19:35
  actually.
• 19:36
  So
• 19:36
  you,
• 19:37
  you
• 19:37
  meet
• 19:37
  up
• 19:37
  with
• 19:37
  them.
• 19:38
  We
• 19:38
  usually
• 19:38
  try
• 19:38
  and
• 19:38
  golf
• 19:39
  every
• 19:39
  Sunday
• 19:39
  in
• 19:40
  the
• 19:40
  winter.
• 19:40
  Like
• 19:40
  that
• 19:41
  is
• 19:41
  our
• 19:41
  regular
• 19:42
  kind
• 19:42
  of
• 19:42
  fixture.
• 19:42
  And
• 19:43
  then
• 19:43
  likes
• 19:43
  this
• 19:43
  weekend
• 19:44
  there's
• 19:44
  a
• 19:45
  trip
• 19:46
  organized
• 19:46
  a
• 19:46
  way
• 19:47
  to
• 19:47
  playing
• 19:47
  crail
• 19:48
  which
• 19:48
  is
• 19:48
  a
• 19:48
  bit
• 19:48
  unfortunate
• 19:49
  because
• 19:49
  it
• 19:49
  clashes
• 19:50
  with
• 19:50
  the
• 19:51
  Scottish
• 19:51
  farmer
• 19:52
  Agri
• 19:52
  Scott
• 19:52
  Awards.
• 19:53
  So
• 19:53
  it's
• 19:53
  the
• 19:54
  boys
• 19:54
  will
• 19:54
  play
• 19:54
  in
• 19:54
  the
• 19:54
  Thursday
• 19:55
  and
• 19:55
  Friday
• 19:56
  but
• 19:56
  I'll
• 19:56
  just
• 19:56
  join
• 19:57
  them
• 19:57
  for
• 19:57
  the
• 19:57
  Friday.
• 19:58
  And
• 19:58
  how
• 19:58
  much
• 19:58
  does
• 19:58
  that
• 19:59
  regular
• 19:59
  fixture
• 20:00
  boost
• 20:00
  your
• 20:00
  mental
• 20:01
  well
• 20:01
  being?
• 20:01
  Oh
• 20:02
  it's
• 20:02
  good
• 20:02
  because
• 20:03
  like
• 20:03
  even
• 20:03
  if
• 20:03
  you
• 20:03
  go
• 20:03
  and
• 20:04
  play
• 20:04
  poorly,
• 20:05
  like
• 20:05
  you
• 20:05
  meet
• 20:05
  up
• 20:05
  with
• 20:06
  like
• 20:06
  with
• 20:06
  the
• 20:07
  boys,
• 20:07
  they've
• 20:08
  they've
• 20:08
  got
• 20:08
  other
• 20:08
  problems
• 20:09
  or
• 20:09
  things
• 20:09
  going
• 20:09
  on
• 20:10
  in
• 20:10
  their
• 20:10
  life.
• 20:10
  You'll
• 20:10
  chat
• 20:11
  to
• 20:11
  them
• 20:11
  about
• 20:11
  stuff
• 20:12
  that's
• 20:12
  non
• 20:12
  farming,
• 20:13
  non
• 20:13
  agriscott.
• 20:14
  You
• 20:14
  know,
• 20:15
  it's
• 20:15
  not
• 20:15
  related
• 20:15
  to
• 20:15
  any
• 20:16
  of
• 20:16
  that.
• 20:16
  And
• 20:16
  there's
• 20:17
  a
• 20:17
  couple
• 20:17
  of
• 20:17
  times
• 20:17
  that'll
• 20:18
  be
• 20:19
  like
• 20:19
  sweithering
• 20:19
  about
• 20:20
  going
• 20:20
  and
• 20:21
  wife
• 20:21
  always
• 20:21
  say
• 20:22
  you
• 20:22
  should
• 20:22
  go
• 20:23
  just
• 20:23
  because
• 20:24
  think
• 20:24
  how
• 20:24
  much
• 20:24
  you
• 20:24
  enjoy
• 20:25
  it
• 20:25
  every
• 20:25
  time
• 20:25
  that
• 20:25
  you
• 20:26
  go
• 20:26
  just
• 20:26
  because
• 20:26
  as
• 20:27
  a
• 20:27
  you
• 20:28
  get
• 20:28
  a
• 20:28
  chance
• 20:28
  to
• 20:28
  chat
• 20:29
  away
• 20:29
  to
• 20:29
  them.
• 20:29
  Even
• 20:30
  if
• 20:30
  the
• 20:30
  golf
• 20:30
  spot,
• 20:31
  the
• 20:31
  company's
• 20:31
  good
• 20:31
  and
• 20:31
  you
• 20:32
  have
• 20:32
  a
• 20:32
  good
• 20:32
  round
• 20:33
  and
• 20:33
  you
• 20:33
  feel
• 20:33
  better
• 20:33
  after
• 20:34
  it's
• 20:35
  just.
• 20:35
  It's
• 20:35
  brilliant.
• 20:36
  It's
• 20:36
  a
• 20:36
  really,
• 20:36
  really
• 20:36
  good
• 20:37
  thing
• 20:37
  to
• 20:37
  do.
• 20:37
  And
• 20:37
  I'm
• 20:38
  thinking
• 20:38
  about
• 20:38
  that
• 20:38
  relationship,
• 20:39
  you
• 20:39
  know,
• 20:40
  both
• 20:40
  being
• 20:40
  married
• 20:40
  and
• 20:41
  both
• 20:41
  working
• 20:42
  alongside
• 20:43
  your
• 20:43
  partner,
• 20:44
  your
• 20:44
  wives
• 20:44
  in
• 20:44
  the
• 20:45
  farm,
• 20:45
  and
• 20:45
  then
• 20:45
  being
• 20:45
  very
• 20:46
  much
• 20:46
  involved.
• 20:46
  I
• 20:46
  mean,
• 20:47
  I
• 20:47
  work
• 20:47
  with
• 20:47
  my
• 20:47
  husband
• 20:48
  and
• 20:48
  we
• 20:48
  find
• 20:49
  it
• 20:49
  very
• 20:49
  hard
• 20:49
  to
• 20:49
  separate,
• 20:50
  you
• 20:50
  know,
• 20:51
  switch
• 20:51
  off
• 20:51
  and
• 20:52
  not
• 20:52
  talk
• 20:52
  about
• 20:52
  work
• 20:53
  and
• 20:53
  not
• 20:53
  bring
• 20:54
  it
• 20:54
  to
• 20:54
  the
• 20:54
  kitchen
• 20:54
  table.
• 20:55
  And
• 20:56
  I
• 20:56
  just
• 20:56
  wondered
• 20:56
  what
• 20:57
  tips
• 20:57
  you
• 20:57
  have
• 20:57
  for
• 20:58
  trying
• 20:59
  to,
• 21:00
  you
• 21:00
  know,
• 21:00
  separate
• 21:01
  the
• 21:01
  two
• 21:01
  and
• 21:02
  having
• 21:02
  time
• 21:02
  to
• 21:02
  yourselves.
• 21:03
  Well,
• 21:03
  Joanne,
• 21:05
  there's
• 21:05
  a.
• 21:05
  Robert
• 21:06
  mentioned
• 21:06
  about
• 21:06
  the
• 21:07
  wool
• 21:07
  is
• 21:07
  our
• 21:07
  mule.
• 21:08
  Wool
• 21:08
  is
• 21:08
  bought
• 21:09
  locally.
• 21:10
  Iona
• 21:10
  wool
• 21:10
  goes
• 21:11
  through
• 21:11
  the
• 21:11
  craft
• 21:12
  shop.
• 21:12
  And
• 21:12
  there
• 21:12
  was.
• 21:13
  One
• 21:13
  of
• 21:13
  the
• 21:13
  girls
• 21:14
  was
• 21:14
  going
• 21:15
  to
• 21:15
  maternity
• 21:15
  leave
• 21:16
  and
• 21:16
  they're
• 21:16
  needing
• 21:16
  someone
• 21:16
  to
• 21:17
  cover.
• 21:17
  And
• 21:17
  Joanne
• 21:18
  said
• 21:18
  that
• 21:19
  she
• 21:19
  wanted
• 21:19
  to
• 21:19
  basically
• 21:20
  get
• 21:20
  away
• 21:20
  from
• 21:20
  that
• 21:21
  environment
• 21:21
  they're
• 21:21
  talking
• 21:22
  about.
• 21:22
  Could
• 21:22
  she
• 21:23
  miss,
• 21:23
  like,
• 21:23
  the
• 21:24
  office
• 21:24
  environment
• 21:25
  or
• 21:25
  what?
• 21:26
  Basically
• 21:26
  working
• 21:26
  with
• 21:26
  colleagues.
• 21:27
  So
• 21:27
  I
• 21:27
  think
• 21:28
  being
• 21:28
  stuck
• 21:28
  here
• 21:28
  on
• 21:29
  the
• 21:29
  farm,
• 21:29
  doing
• 21:29
  her
• 21:30
  work
• 21:30
  from
• 21:30
  home
• 21:30
  and
• 21:31
  on
• 21:31
  the
• 21:31
  farm,
• 21:31
  I
• 21:31
  think
• 21:32
  she
• 21:32
  just
• 21:32
  needed
• 21:32
  to
• 21:33
  get
• 21:33
  away
• 21:33
  from
• 21:34
  it
• 21:34
  and
• 21:34
  get
• 21:34
  away
• 21:34
  from
• 21:35
  me.
• 21:35
  I
• 21:35
  think
• 21:35
  probably
• 21:36
  forever.
• 21:37
  I
• 21:37
  was
• 21:37
  gonna
• 21:37
  say
• 21:37
  two
• 21:37
  or
• 21:38
  three
• 21:38
  days
• 21:38
  a
• 21:38
  week.
• 21:39
  You
• 21:39
  probably
• 21:39
  didn't
• 21:39
  have
• 21:39
  much
• 21:40
  of
• 21:40
  a
• 21:40
  difference
• 21:40
  during
• 21:41
  COVID
• 21:41
  then,
• 21:41
  was
• 21:41
  it?
• 21:42
  Life
• 21:42
  went
• 21:42
  on
• 21:42
  pretty
• 21:42
  much.
• 21:43
  I
• 21:44
  absolutely
• 21:44
  loved
• 21:45
  Covid.
• 21:45
  The
• 21:46
  schools
• 21:46
  broke
• 21:46
  up.
• 21:46
  Remember,
• 21:47
  it
• 21:47
  was
• 21:47
  like
• 21:47
  March.
• 21:48
  It
• 21:48
  was
• 21:48
  right
• 21:48
  before
• 21:48
  lambing
• 21:49
  time.
• 21:50
  So
• 21:50
  basically
• 21:50
  both
• 21:51
  the
• 21:51
  boys
• 21:51
  home
• 21:52
  and
• 21:52
  the
• 21:53
  weather
• 21:53
  was
• 21:53
  amazing.
• 21:54
  And
• 21:54
  that
• 21:54
  one
• 21:54
  time
• 21:55
  of
• 21:55
  year
• 21:55
  where
• 21:55
  there's.
• 21:55
  There's
• 21:56
  quite
• 21:56
  a
• 21:56
  bit
• 21:56
  of
• 21:56
  conflict
• 21:57
  with
• 21:57
  tourists,
• 21:57
  there's
• 21:57
  two
• 21:57
  responding
• 21:58
  through
• 21:58
  the
• 21:58
  lambing
• 21:59
  fields,
• 21:59
  usually
• 21:59
  with
• 22:00
  dogs
• 22:00
  or
• 22:01
  whatever,
• 22:01
  so
• 22:01
  that
• 22:02
  you're
• 22:02
  tired,
• 22:02
  maybe
• 22:03
  you
• 22:03
  were
• 22:03
  grumpy,
• 22:03
  bad
• 22:04
  for
• 22:04
  the
• 22:04
  blood
• 22:04
  pressure,
• 22:05
  that
• 22:05
  kind
• 22:05
  of
• 22:05
  thing.
• 22:05
  There
• 22:06
  was
• 22:06
  none
• 22:06
  of
• 22:06
  them,
• 22:07
  no
• 22:07
  tourists.
• 22:07
  It
• 22:08
  was
• 22:08
  just
• 22:08
  so
• 22:08
  easy.
• 22:09
  But
• 22:09
  Joanne
• 22:10
  was
• 22:10
  not
• 22:10
  enjoying
• 22:10
  it
• 22:10
  because
• 22:11
  she
• 22:11
  was
• 22:11
  just
• 22:11
  here
• 22:12
  all
• 22:12
  the
• 22:12
  time.
• 22:12
  And
• 22:13
  she
• 22:13
  actually
• 22:13
  pulled
• 22:13
  me
• 22:13
  up
• 22:14
  at
• 22:14
  the
• 22:14
  end
• 22:14
  of,
• 22:14
  like,
• 22:14
  it
• 22:15
  was
• 22:15
  getting
• 22:15
  towards
• 22:15
  end
• 22:15
  of
• 22:15
  lamb
• 22:16
  and
• 22:16
  she
• 22:16
  was
• 22:16
  going,
• 22:16
  you're
• 22:17
  enjoying
• 22:17
  this
• 22:17
  far
• 22:18
  too
• 22:18
  much,
• 22:18
  aren't
• 22:18
  you?
• 22:19
  It
• 22:19
  was
• 22:19
  fantastic.
• 22:20
  We
• 22:20
  had
• 22:20
  very
• 22:21
  different
• 22:21
  experiences,
• 22:22
  but,
• 22:22
  yeah.
• 22:23
  We
• 22:23
  were
• 22:23
  just
• 22:23
  really
• 22:24
  lucky
• 22:24
  about
• 22:24
  where.
• 22:25
  I
• 22:25
  mean,
• 22:25
  imagine
• 22:25
  if
• 22:25
  you're
• 22:26
  in
• 22:26
  lockdown
• 22:27
  in
• 22:27
  a.
• 22:28
  A
• 22:28
  small
• 22:28
  flat
• 22:28
  in
• 22:29
  a
• 22:29
  city
• 22:29
  center
• 22:29
  somewhere.
• 22:30
  You
• 22:30
  know,
• 22:30
  it
• 22:30
  would
• 22:30
  have
• 22:30
  been
• 22:30
  really,
• 22:31
  really
• 22:31
  difficult.
• 22:31
  We
• 22:31
  were
• 22:32
  lucky,
• 22:32
  really
• 22:32
  fortunate
• 22:33
  where
• 22:33
  we
• 22:33
  were.
• 22:34
  So.
• 22:34
  And
• 22:35
  Robert,
• 22:35
  what
• 22:35
  about
• 22:36
  yourself
• 22:36
  and
• 22:36
  your
• 22:37
  wife?
• 22:37
  Yeah,
• 22:38
  well,
• 22:39
  she's
• 22:39
  my
• 22:40
  business
• 22:40
  partner,
• 22:41
  but
• 22:41
  she
• 22:41
  has
• 22:41
  got
• 22:42
  a
• 22:42
  job
• 22:43
  at
• 22:43
  the
• 22:43
  local
• 22:43
  showground
• 22:44
  at
• 22:44
  the
• 22:44
  Border
• 22:44
  Union
• 22:45
  Showground
• 22:45
  in
• 22:45
  Kelso,
• 22:46
  which
• 22:46
  is
• 22:47
  a
• 22:47
  new
• 22:47
  position
• 22:47
  they've
• 22:48
  created.
• 22:48
  And
• 22:49
  she
• 22:49
  was
• 22:49
  lucky
• 22:49
  enough
• 22:49
  to
• 22:50
  get
• 22:50
  the
• 22:50
  role.
• 22:51
  So
• 22:51
  it's
• 22:51
  about
• 22:51
  education,
• 22:53
  about
• 22:53
  getting
• 22:53
  the
• 22:53
  school
• 22:53
  leavers
• 22:54
  out
• 22:54
  looking
• 22:54
  for
• 22:55
  jobs
• 22:55
  for
• 22:55
  them
• 22:55
  within
• 22:56
  agriculture
• 22:57
  because
• 22:57
  I
• 22:57
  don't
• 22:58
  think
• 22:58
  the
• 22:59
  teachers
• 22:59
  realize
• 23:00
  how
• 23:00
  many
• 23:00
  jobs
• 23:01
  are
• 23:01
  associated
• 23:01
  with
• 23:02
  farming.
• 23:02
  You
• 23:03
  know,
• 23:03
  from
• 23:03
  agronomists,
• 23:04
  vets,
• 23:05
  vet
• 23:05
  nurses,
• 23:06
  seed
• 23:07
  sales,
• 23:07
  salespeople,
• 23:08
  machinery,
• 23:08
  all
• 23:09
  of
• 23:09
  these
• 23:09
  things.
• 23:10
  And
• 23:10
  just
• 23:10
  highlighting
• 23:11
  that,
• 23:11
  you
• 23:11
  know,
• 23:11
  there's
• 23:12
  loads
• 23:12
  of
• 23:12
  jobs
• 23:13
  out
• 23:13
  there
• 23:13
  for
• 23:13
  people
• 23:13
  if
• 23:14
  they
• 23:14
  want
• 23:14
  to
• 23:14
  get
• 23:15
  involved
• 23:15
  in
• 23:15
  agriculture.
• 23:16
  So
• 23:16
  she's
• 23:16
  really
• 23:16
  thriving
• 23:17
  on
• 23:17
  that
• 23:17
  and
• 23:17
  enjoying
• 23:18
  that
• 23:18
  and
• 23:18
  getting
• 23:19
  into
• 23:19
  schools
• 23:19
  and
• 23:19
  getting
• 23:20
  them
• 23:20
  out
• 23:20
  on
• 23:20
  farm
• 23:20
  as
• 23:21
  well.
• 23:21
  She
• 23:21
  also
• 23:22
  does
• 23:22
  ultra
• 23:22
  marathons
• 23:23
  to
• 23:23
  get
• 23:23
  away
• 23:23
  from
• 23:23
  them.
• 23:24
  Now
• 23:24
  that's
• 23:24
  not.
• 23:24
  That's
• 23:25
  miles
• 23:25
  and
• 23:25
  miles
• 23:26
  she
• 23:26
  runs,
• 23:26
  isn't
• 23:26
  it?
• 23:28
  And
• 23:29
  hopefully
• 23:29
  she
• 23:29
  goes
• 23:29
  one
• 23:30
  direction
• 23:30
  then
• 23:30
  comes
• 23:30
  back.
• 23:30
  I'm
• 23:31
  sure
• 23:31
  she
• 23:31
  does,
• 23:31
  Robert.
• 23:32
  I'm
• 23:32
  sure
• 23:32
  she
• 23:32
  does.
• 23:33
  And
• 23:33
  I
• 23:33
  mean
• 23:33
  you
• 23:33
  obviously
• 23:34
  you,
• 23:34
  okay,
• 23:34
  you
• 23:35
  come
• 23:35
  in,
• 23:35
  you
• 23:35
  switch
• 23:35
  off
• 23:35
  your
• 23:36
  phone,
• 23:36
  you
• 23:36
  grab
• 23:37
  the
• 23:37
  welder
• 23:37
  and
• 23:38
  off
• 23:38
  you
• 23:38
  go.
• 23:39
  But
• 23:39
  I
• 23:39
  wonder
• 23:39
  what
• 23:40
  you
• 23:40
  do
• 23:40
  together
• 23:40
  to
• 23:41
  have,
• 23:41
  I
• 23:41
  mean,
• 23:41
  obviously,
• 23:42
  you
• 23:42
  know,
• 23:43
  holidays
• 23:43
  and
• 23:43
  the
• 23:44
  boys
• 23:44
  taking
• 23:44
  over.
• 23:46
  How
• 23:46
  do
• 23:46
  you
• 23:46
  create
• 23:47
  that
• 23:47
  sort
• 23:47
  of
• 23:47
  line
• 23:48
  in
• 23:48
  the
• 23:48
  sand,
• 23:48
  that
• 23:48
  separation?
• 23:49
  Yeah,
• 23:50
  I
• 23:50
  mean,
• 23:50
  we've
• 23:50
  had
• 23:50
  some
• 23:50
  great
• 23:50
  holidays
• 23:51
  over
• 23:51
  the
• 23:51
  years.
• 23:52
  We're
• 23:52
  probably
• 23:52
  needing
• 23:52
  to
• 23:52
  do
• 23:53
  more
• 23:53
  of
• 23:53
  that
• 23:53
  as
• 23:53
  a
• 23:54
  couple
• 23:54
  and
• 23:54
  switch
• 23:55
  off
• 23:55
  more.
• 23:55
  It's
• 23:56
  hard
• 23:56
  to
• 23:56
  switch
• 23:56
  off
• 23:56
  when
• 23:57
  you're,
• 23:57
  when
• 23:57
  you
• 23:58
  live
• 23:58
  on
• 23:58
  your
• 23:58
  working
• 23:59
  premises,
• 24:00
  you
• 24:00
  walk
• 24:00
  out
• 24:00
  the
• 24:00
  door
• 24:01
  and
• 24:01
  that's
• 24:01
  your
• 24:01
  office.
• 24:02
  When
• 24:02
  you've
• 24:02
  got
• 24:02
  a
• 24:02
  big
• 24:03
  farm
• 24:03
  and
• 24:03
  mixed
• 24:04
  farm
• 24:04
  with
• 24:04
  lots
• 24:05
  of
• 24:05
  livestock
• 24:05
  and
• 24:06
  cereals
• 24:06
  and
• 24:07
  things,
• 24:07
  there's
• 24:07
  always
• 24:07
  something
• 24:08
  to
• 24:08
  do.
• 24:08
  But
• 24:09
  John
• 24:09
  walks
• 24:09
  out
• 24:09
  his
• 24:10
  back
• 24:10
  door
• 24:10
  and
• 24:10
  he's
• 24:10
  got
• 24:10
  an
• 24:11
  18
• 24:11
  hole
• 24:11
  golf
• 24:12
  course.
• 24:12
  Whenever
• 24:13
  I'm
• 24:13
  getting
• 24:13
  beaten
• 24:13
  in
• 24:13
  the
• 24:14
  winter
• 24:14
  in
• 24:14
  a
• 24:14
  match,
• 24:14
  I
• 24:15
  always
• 24:16
  actually
• 24:16
  only
• 24:16
  did
• 24:16
  it
• 24:17
  once.
• 24:17
  But
• 24:17
  the
• 24:18
  guys
• 24:18
  say
• 24:18
  I
• 24:18
  do
• 24:18
  it
• 24:18
  all
• 24:19
  the
• 24:19
  time.
• 24:19
  I
• 24:19
  say,
• 24:19
  oh,
• 24:20
  there's
• 24:20
  a
• 24:20
  cow
• 24:20
  calving,
• 24:21
  I've
• 24:21
  got
• 24:21
  to
• 24:21
  go.
• 24:22
  If
• 24:22
  I'm
• 24:22
  about
• 24:22
  the
• 24:22
  8th
• 24:23
  or
• 24:23
  9th
• 24:23
  and
• 24:23
  I'm
• 24:23
  struggling,
• 24:24
  I
• 24:24
  just
• 24:24
  sit
• 24:24
  at
• 24:25
  the
• 24:25
  back
• 24:25
  of
• 24:25
  the
• 24:25
  farm
• 24:25
  and
• 24:25
  I
• 24:25
  head
• 24:26
  home.
• 24:26
  And
• 24:27
  it
• 24:27
  amazes
• 24:27
  what
• 24:27
  you
• 24:28
  speak
• 24:28
  about
• 24:28
  your
• 24:28
  wife
• 24:29
  and
• 24:29
  ultramarathons.
• 24:30
  She
• 24:30
  must
• 24:30
  feel
• 24:30
  fantastic
• 24:31
  after
• 24:31
  a
• 24:31
  run
• 24:32
  because
• 24:32
  you
• 24:32
  do.
• 24:32
  Once
• 24:32
  you've
• 24:33
  done
• 24:33
  some
• 24:33
  of
• 24:33
  the,
• 24:33
  you
• 24:33
  know,
• 24:34
  something
• 24:34
  physical,
• 24:34
  I
• 24:35
  think
• 24:35
  a
• 24:35
  lot
• 24:35
  of
• 24:35
  people
• 24:36
  have
• 24:36
  different
• 24:37
  releases
• 24:37
  and,
• 24:37
  you
• 24:38
  know,
• 24:38
  activity
• 24:39
  for
• 24:39
  her
• 24:39
  sounds
• 24:40
  like
• 24:40
  her
• 24:40
  thing.
• 24:41
  Do
• 24:41
  you
• 24:41
  do
• 24:41
  anything
• 24:42
  on
• 24:42
  a
• 24:42
  daily
• 24:43
  basis
• 24:43
  that
• 24:43
  just
• 24:44
  clears
• 24:45
  the
• 24:45
  head?
• 24:45
  Just
• 24:46
  go
• 24:46
  out
• 24:46
  the
• 24:46
  back
• 24:46
  door,
• 24:47
  get
• 24:47
  out
• 24:47
  on
• 24:47
  the
• 24:47
  farm,
• 24:48
  go
• 24:48
  and
• 24:49
  look
• 24:49
  at
• 24:49
  the
• 24:49
  livestock
• 24:49
  and
• 24:50
  hopefully
• 24:50
  they're
• 24:50
  all
• 24:50
  looking
• 24:51
  well
• 24:51
  and
• 24:51
  that's
• 24:51
  satisfying.
• 24:52
  How
• 24:52
  fit
• 24:53
  fit
• 24:53
  would
• 24:53
  you
• 24:53
  say
• 24:54
  you
• 24:54
  are
• 24:55
  fairly
• 24:56
  fit?
• 24:56
  I
• 24:56
  would
• 24:56
  say
• 24:57
  yeah,
• 24:57
  try
• 24:57
  and
• 24:58
  walk
• 24:58
  and
• 24:58
  keep
• 24:59
  fit
• 24:59
  and
• 25:00
  keep
• 25:00
  in
• 25:00
  tune.
• 25:00
  So,
• 25:01
  yeah,
• 25:01
  I
• 25:01
  mean,
• 25:01
  John,
• 25:02
  what
• 25:02
  about
• 25:02
  you?
• 25:02
  I
• 25:02
  Mean
• 25:02
  physical.
• 25:03
  I
• 25:03
  mean,
• 25:03
  I
• 25:03
  suppose
• 25:04
  physical
• 25:04
  health,
• 25:04
  physical
• 25:05
  well
• 25:05
  being.
• 25:05
  You're
• 25:06
  on
• 25:06
  an
• 25:06
  island,
• 25:06
  you're
• 25:06
  out,
• 25:07
  you're
• 25:07
  probably
• 25:08
  dealing
• 25:08
  with
• 25:08
  things
• 25:09
  physically
• 25:09
  every
• 25:09
  day.
• 25:09
  But
• 25:10
  is
• 25:10
  there
• 25:10
  anything
• 25:10
  that
• 25:10
  you
• 25:11
  do
• 25:11
  do
• 25:11
  that
• 25:11
  sort
• 25:12
  of
• 25:12
  hits
• 25:13
  the
• 25:13
  spot?
• 25:13
  Yeah,
• 25:14
  I
• 25:14
  do
• 25:14
  a
• 25:14
  wee
• 25:14
  bit
• 25:15
  of
• 25:15
  running.
• 25:15
  Nothing
• 25:16
  like
• 25:16
  what
• 25:16
  I
• 25:16
  should
• 25:16
  do.
• 25:16
  I
• 25:17
  used
• 25:17
  to
• 25:17
  play
• 25:17
  a
• 25:17
  lot
• 25:17
  of
• 25:17
  football
• 25:18
  when
• 25:18
  I
• 25:18
  lived
• 25:18
  in
• 25:18
  the
• 25:19
  mainland.
• 25:19
  Even
• 25:19
  looking
• 25:19
  back
• 25:20
  still
• 25:20
  played
• 25:20
  a
• 25:20
  wee
• 25:20
  bit.
• 25:21
  So
• 25:21
  I
• 25:21
  miss
• 25:21
  that.
• 25:21
  Like
• 25:22
  they've
• 25:23
  that
• 25:23
  kept
• 25:23
  you
• 25:23
  really
• 25:24
  fit
• 25:25
  by
• 25:25
  old
• 25:25
  age.
• 25:25
  Your
• 25:26
  body
• 25:26
  can't
• 25:26
  keep
• 25:27
  up
• 25:27
  that.
• 25:27
  So
• 25:27
  do
• 25:27
  a
• 25:27
  wee
• 25:27
  bit
• 25:28
  of
• 25:28
  running.
• 25:28
  We
• 25:28
  actually
• 25:28
  built
• 25:28
  a
• 25:29
  gym
• 25:29
  shed
• 25:30
  in
• 25:30
  the
• 25:30
  back
• 25:30
  garden,
• 25:31
  but
• 25:31
  that
• 25:31
  was
• 25:31
  mainly
• 25:31
  the
• 25:31
  boys
• 25:32
  that
• 25:32
  were
• 25:32
  driving
• 25:32
  it.
• 25:32
  I
• 25:32
  don't
• 25:33
  know.
• 25:33
  Teenage
• 25:33
  boys
• 25:33
  like
• 25:34
  to
• 25:34
  do
• 25:34
  weights
• 25:35
  and
• 25:35
  all
• 25:35
  this
• 25:35
  sort
• 25:35
  of
• 25:35
  stuff
• 25:35
  a
• 25:36
  lot
• 25:36
  more.
• 25:36
  And
• 25:37
  now
• 25:37
  that's
• 25:37
  got
• 25:37
  a
• 25:37
  running
• 25:38
  machine,
• 25:38
  cycling
• 25:39
  machine
• 25:39
  in
• 25:39
  it.
• 25:39
  So
• 25:40
  we're
• 25:40
  going
• 25:40
  like
• 25:40
  you
• 25:40
  try
• 25:41
  and
• 25:41
  do
• 25:41
  that
• 25:41
  a
• 25:41
  wee
• 25:41
  bit
• 25:42
  in
• 25:42
  the
• 25:42
  winter.
• 25:42
  Probably
• 25:43
  need
• 25:43
  to.
• 25:43
  I
• 25:43
  always
• 25:43
  make
• 25:44
  a
• 25:44
  big
• 25:44
  announcement
• 25:44
  on
• 25:45
  a
• 25:45
  Sunday
• 25:45
  night
• 25:45
  saying,
• 25:46
  right,
• 25:46
  it's
• 25:46
  going
• 25:46
  to
• 25:46
  be
• 25:46
  a
• 25:46
  big
• 25:47
  week
• 25:47
  of
• 25:47
  fitness
• 25:47
  ahead.
• 25:48
  This
• 25:48
  is
• 25:48
  what
• 25:48
  I
• 25:48
  say,
• 25:49
  big
• 25:49
  week
• 25:49
  of
• 25:49
  fitness.
• 25:50
  Full
• 25:50
  of
• 25:50
  motivation.
• 25:51
  I'll
• 25:51
  maybe
• 25:51
  do
• 25:51
  something
• 25:52
  on
• 25:52
  the
• 25:52
  Tuesday,
• 25:54
  maybe
• 25:55
  Wednesday
• 25:55
  and
• 25:56
  then
• 25:56
  that's
• 25:56
  it.
• 25:57
  Quite
• 25:57
  often
• 25:57
  I
• 25:57
  don't
• 25:58
  do
• 25:58
  anymore,
• 25:58
  but
• 25:58
  I've
• 25:59
  got
• 25:59
  full
• 25:59
  of
• 25:59
  good
• 26:00
  intentions
• 26:01
  and.
• 26:01
  I
• 26:01
  was
• 26:01
  thinking
• 26:01
  about
• 26:01
  island
• 26:02
  communities
• 26:02
  and
• 26:02
  west
• 26:03
  coast
• 26:03
  especially.
• 26:04
  There
• 26:04
  is
• 26:04
  sometimes
• 26:04
  an
• 26:05
  association
• 26:05
  with,
• 26:06
  you
• 26:06
  know,
• 26:06
  enjoying
• 26:07
  the
• 26:07
  pub
• 26:07
  and
• 26:07
  going
• 26:08
  down
• 26:08
  to
• 26:08
  the
• 26:08
  pub
• 26:08
  and
• 26:09
  perhaps
• 26:10
  the
• 26:10
  sort
• 26:10
  of
• 26:10
  risk
• 26:10
  of
• 26:11
  enjoying
• 26:11
  that
• 26:11
  too
• 26:12
  much.
• 26:12
  And
• 26:12
  I
• 26:12
  just
• 26:12
  wonder
• 26:13
  if
• 26:13
  you.
• 26:13
  How
• 26:13
  you
• 26:14
  keep
• 26:14
  a
• 26:14
  good
• 26:14
  balance
• 26:15
  there.
• 26:15
  Well,
• 26:16
  fortunately
• 26:16
  the
• 26:17
  pub
• 26:17
  on
• 26:17
  Iona
• 26:17
  shuts
• 26:18
  during
• 26:18
  the
• 26:18
  winter
• 26:18
  so
• 26:19
  that
• 26:19
  takes
• 26:19
  that
• 26:21
  equation
• 26:22
  for
• 26:22
  an
• 26:22
  option.
• 26:22
  Usually
• 26:23
  they
• 26:23
  go
• 26:23
  to
• 26:23
  one
• 26:24
  of
• 26:24
  ours
• 26:24
  houses,
• 26:24
  that
• 26:25
  kind
• 26:25
  of
• 26:25
  thing
• 26:25
  does
• 26:25
  it.
• 26:25
  We
• 26:25
  built.
• 26:26
  There
• 26:26
  was
• 26:26
  a
• 26:26
  new
• 26:26
  village
• 26:26
  hall
• 26:27
  got
• 26:27
  built
• 26:28
  recently
• 26:28
  and
• 26:28
  there's
• 26:29
  a
• 26:29
  lot
• 26:29
  of
• 26:29
  things
• 26:29
  on
• 26:30
  in
• 26:30
  over
• 26:31
  the
• 26:31
  course
• 26:31
  of
• 26:31
  the
• 26:31
  winter
• 26:32
  as
• 26:32
  well.
• 26:32
  I'm
• 26:32
  just,
• 26:33
  you
• 26:33
  know,
• 26:33
  on,
• 26:33
  on
• 26:33
  an
• 26:34
  island
• 26:34
  and
• 26:35
  in
• 26:35
  a
• 26:35
  community
• 26:36
  lives
• 26:36
  very
• 26:36
  closely,
• 26:37
  you
• 26:37
  know,
• 26:38
  together
• 26:38
  and
• 26:38
  cheek
• 26:39
  by
• 26:39
  jowl.
• 26:40
  Would
• 26:40
  you
• 26:40
  notice
• 26:41
  if
• 26:41
  other
• 26:41
  people
• 26:42
  were
• 26:42
  struggling?
• 26:43
  It's
• 26:43
  a
• 26:43
  good
• 26:44
  point.
• 26:44
  You
• 26:44
  probably,
• 26:45
  you
• 26:45
  might
• 26:45
  in
• 26:46
  some
• 26:46
  cases,
• 26:46
  but
• 26:46
  other
• 26:47
  cases
• 26:47
  you
• 26:47
  wouldn't
• 26:47
  at
• 26:48
  all
• 26:48
  because
• 26:48
  you'd
• 26:48
  hear
• 26:48
  about
• 26:49
  it
• 26:49
  a
• 26:49
  wee
• 26:49
  bit
• 26:50
  late,
• 26:50
  you
• 26:50
  know,
• 26:51
  when
• 26:51
  it's
• 26:51
  actually
• 26:51
  become
• 26:51
  more
• 26:52
  of
• 26:52
  a
• 26:52
  problem.
• 26:52
  I'm
• 26:53
  thinking
• 26:53
  about
• 26:53
  your
• 26:54
  golf,
• 26:54
  you
• 26:54
  know,

• 26:57
  girls
• 26:57
  that
• 26:57
  you
• 26:57
  golf
• 26:58
  with.
• 26:58
  How
• 26:58
  often
• 26:59
  would
• 26:59
  you
• 26:59
  really
• 26:59
  share
• 27:00
  with
• 27:00
  them
• 27:01
  during
• 27:01
  that,
• 27:01
  that,
• 27:02
  that
• 27:02
  round?
• 27:02
  Well,
• 27:03
  you,
• 27:03
  yeah,
• 27:03
  you
• 27:04
  would
• 27:04
  quite
• 27:04
  often
• 27:04
  talk
• 27:05
  about
• 27:05
  things
• 27:05
  that
• 27:05
  have
• 27:05
  been
• 27:05
  bothering
• 27:06
  you
• 27:06
  and
• 27:06
  yeah,
• 27:07
  you
• 27:08
  grow
• 27:08
  up
• 27:08
  together
• 27:08
  too.
• 27:09
  Like
• 27:09
  you've
• 27:09
  grown
• 27:10
  up

  guys,
• 27:11
  most
• 27:11
  of
• 27:11
  them.
• 27:12
  And
• 27:12
  on
• 27:13
  the
• 27:13
  farming
• 27:13
  side
• 27:13
  of
• 27:14
  things
• 27:14
  here,
• 27:14
  like

  there's
• 27:15
  a
• 27:15
  few.

  Couple

  younger
• 27:17
  guys

  stuff

  stuck,
• 27:20
  you

  one
• 27:25
  another.
• 27:25
  Anyway.
• 27:25
  There's
• 27:26
  a
• 27:26
  good
• 27:27
  island
• 27:27
  community
• 27:27
  in
• 27:28
  that
• 27:28
  way.
• 27:28
  Like
• 27:28
  when
• 27:29
  we're
• 27:29
  making
• 27:29
  wee
• 27:29
  bales
• 27:30
  of
• 27:30
  hay.
• 27:30
  This
• 27:30
  summer
• 27:30
  we
• 27:30
  had
• 27:30
  an
• 27:31
  absolute.
• 27:31
  On
• 27:31
  paper
• 27:32
  it
• 27:32
  was
• 27:32
  a
• 27:32
  disaster
• 27:32
  of
• 27:33
  an
• 27:33
  operation
• 27:33
  with
• 27:34
  like
• 27:34
  three
• 27:34
  wee
• 27:35
  balers
• 27:35
  broke
• 27:35
  down
• 27:35
  but
• 27:36
  we
• 27:36
  ended
• 27:36
  up.
• 27:36
  There
• 27:36
  was
• 27:37
  one
• 27:37
  that
• 27:37
  worked
• 27:37
  and
• 27:37
  went
• 27:37
  round
• 27:38
  like
• 27:38
  five
• 27:39
  different
• 27:39
  places
• 27:40
  making
• 27:41
  sure
• 27:41
  everyone
• 27:41
  got
• 27:41
  their
• 27:41
  hay
• 27:42
  baled,
• 27:42
  finished
• 27:42
  off
• 27:42
  hours.
• 27:43
  Had
• 27:43
  quite
• 27:44
  a
• 27:44
  sociable
• 27:44
  night
• 27:44
  that
• 27:45
  night.
• 27:45
  But
• 27:45
  it
• 27:45
  was
• 27:45
  good.
• 27:45
  It
• 27:46
  was
• 27:46
  a
• 27:46
  brilliant
• 27:46
  experience
• 27:47
  the
• 27:47
  whole
• 27:47
  thing
• 27:47
  with
• 27:47
  everyone
• 27:48
  pitching
• 27:48
  in
• 27:48
  and
• 27:49
  working
• 27:49
  together.
• 27:50
  Yeah.
• 27:51
  And
• 27:51
  thinking
• 27:51
  about
• 27:52
  the
• 27:52
  next
• 27:52
  few
• 27:52
  weeks
• 27:53
  and
• 27:53
  you
• 27:53
  know,
• 27:54
  the
• 27:54
  build
• 27:54
  up
• 27:54
  to
• 27:54
  Agri
• 27:55
  Scott
• 27:55
  and
• 27:55
  I'm
• 27:56
  wondering
• 27:57
  how
• 27:57
  much
• 27:57
  pressure
• 27:57
  you
• 27:58
  feel
• 27:58
  and
• 27:58
  how
• 27:58
  you
• 27:59
  cope
• 27:59
  with
• 27:59
  that
• 27:59
  pressure
• 28:00
  and
• 28:00
  stress.
• 28:01
  Depends
• 28:01
  how
• 28:02
  your
• 28:02
  inbox
• 28:02
  is
• 28:02
  looking.
• 28:03
  Sometimes
• 28:03
  you
• 28:03
  look
• 28:04
  at
• 28:04
  it
• 28:04
  and
• 28:04
  think,
• 28:04
  oh,
• 28:04
  that's
• 28:05
  brilliant.
• 28:05
  I'm
• 28:05
  right
• 28:05
  up
• 28:06
  today
• 28:06
  and
• 28:06
  I've
• 28:07
  got
• 28:08
  various
• 28:08
  things
• 28:09
  sorted,
• 28:10
  ticked
• 28:10
  off
• 28:11
  to
• 28:11
  do.
• 28:11
  List
• 28:12
  Martin
• 28:12
  Dare
• 28:13
  that
• 28:13
  I
• 28:13
  work
• 28:13
  with.
• 28:13
  He's
• 28:13
  exceptionally
• 28:14
  well
• 28:14
  organized.
• 28:15
  This
• 28:15
  Robert
• 28:16
  will
• 28:16
  know.
• 28:17
  He
• 28:17
  keeps
• 28:17
  us
• 28:17
  all
• 28:18
  in
• 28:18
  line.
• 28:18
  So
• 28:19
  you
• 28:19
  know
• 28:19
  when
• 28:19
  everything
• 28:19
  has
• 28:20
  to
• 28:20
  be
• 28:20
  done
• 28:20
  by
• 28:20
  a
• 28:20
  certain
• 28:20
  date
• 28:21
  and
• 28:22
  then
• 28:22
  once
• 28:22
  you
• 28:22
  arrive
• 28:22
  on
• 28:23
  site.
• 28:23
  That's
• 28:23
  actually
• 28:23
  the
• 28:24
  best
• 28:24
  bit.
• 28:24
  It's
• 28:24
  quite.
• 28:24
  Because
• 28:25
  you
• 28:25
  can't
• 28:25
  do
• 28:25
  anything
• 28:25
  else
• 28:26
  you
• 28:26
  can't
• 28:26
  do
• 28:26
  any
• 28:26
  more.
• 28:26
  You've
• 28:27
  put
• 28:27
  all
• 28:27
  your
• 28:27
  plans
• 28:27
  in
• 28:27
  place
• 28:28
  and
• 28:28
  you
• 28:28
  just
• 28:29
  all
• 28:29
  have
• 28:29
  to
• 28:29
  work
• 28:29
  together
• 28:30
  to
• 28:30
  try
• 28:30
  and
• 28:30
  make
• 28:30
  sure
• 28:31
  you
• 28:31
  deliver
• 28:31
  it.
• 28:32
  I
• 28:32
  quite
• 28:32
  like
• 28:32
  it.
• 28:33
  Like
• 28:33
  the.
• 28:33
  If
• 28:34
  you
• 28:34
  call
• 28:34
  it
• 28:34
  pressure.
• 28:35
  I
• 28:35
  don't
• 28:35
  know.
• 28:35
  I
• 28:36
  like
• 28:36
  the
• 28:36
  challenge
• 28:37
  of
• 28:37
  trying
• 28:37
  to
• 28:38
  deliver
• 28:38
  a
• 28:38
  good
• 28:38
  event
• 28:39
  on
• 28:39
  site.
• 28:39
  We've
• 28:39
  got
• 28:39
  a
• 28:40
  brilliant
• 28:40
  team
• 28:40
  of
• 28:41
  forklift
• 28:41
  drivers,
• 28:42
  tractor
• 28:42
  drivers.
• 28:42
  Robert's
• 28:43
  two
• 28:43
  sons
• 28:43
  come
• 28:44
  and
• 28:44
  help
• 28:44
  us.
• 28:44
  They're
• 28:44
  exceptional.
• 28:45
  That
• 28:45
  makes
• 28:46
  a
• 28:46
  lot
• 28:46
  easier.
• 28:47
  We
• 28:47
  work
• 28:47
  with
• 28:47
  really
• 28:47
  good
• 28:47
  contractors
• 28:48
  on
• 28:49
  site
• 28:49
  as
• 28:49
  well.
• 28:49
  Electricians
• 28:51
  and
• 28:51
  the
• 28:51
  stand
• 28:52
  builders
• 28:52
  and
• 28:52
  stuff.
• 28:52
  And
• 28:53
  so
• 28:53
  that
• 28:53
  takes
• 28:53
  a
• 28:53
  lot
• 28:53
  of
• 28:54
  pressure
• 28:54
  off
• 28:54
  what
• 28:55
  you
• 28:55
  think
• 28:55
  is
• 28:55
  a
• 28:55
  problem
• 28:56
  and
• 28:56
  then
• 28:56
  you'll
• 28:56
  go
• 28:56
  to
• 28:56
  some
• 28:57
  of
• 28:57
  them
• 28:57
  and
• 28:58
  they're
• 28:58
  so
• 28:59
  willing
• 28:59
  and
• 28:59
  so
• 28:59
  helpful,
• 29:00
  real
• 29:00
  can
• 29:00
  do
• 29:01
  attitude
• 29:01
  with
• 29:02
  virtually
• 29:02
  the
• 29:03
  whole
• 29:03
  team
• 29:03
  that
• 29:03
  we
• 29:03
  work
• 29:03
  with.
• 29:04
  So
• 29:04
  that
• 29:04
  makes
• 29:04
  it
• 29:04
  better.
• 29:05
  Must
• 29:05
  be
• 29:05
  lovely
• 29:06
  to
• 29:06
  hear
• 29:06
  that
• 29:06
  about
• 29:06
  your
• 29:06
  boys,
• 29:07
  Robert.
• 29:07
  And
• 29:07
  I'm
• 29:07
  just
• 29:07
  wondering
• 29:08
  with
• 29:08
  that
• 29:09
  build
• 29:09
  up
• 29:09
  and
• 29:09
  then
• 29:09
  moving
• 29:11
  roles
• 29:11
  and
• 29:12
  there
• 29:12
  being
• 29:12
  a
• 29:13
  lot
• 29:13
  of
• 29:13
  pressure
• 29:13
  on
• 29:14
  the
• 29:14
  industry
• 29:14
  at
• 29:15
  the
• 29:15
  moment
• 29:15
  and
• 29:16
  I
• 29:16
  just
• 29:16
  wonder,
• 29:17
  are
• 29:17
  you
• 29:17
  good
• 29:17
  at
• 29:17
  putting
• 29:18
  things
• 29:18
  into
• 29:18
  perspective?
• 29:19
  Yeah.
• 29:19
  You
• 29:20
  have
• 29:20
  to
• 29:20
  put
• 29:20
  things
• 29:20
  into
• 29:20
  Perspective.
• 29:21
  There's
• 29:21
  always
• 29:21
  good
• 29:22
  days
• 29:22
  and
• 29:22
  bad
• 29:22
  days
• 29:23
  and
• 29:23
  yeah,
• 29:24
  the
• 29:24
  good
• 29:24
  days
• 29:24
  hopefully
• 29:25
  will
• 29:25
  outweigh
• 29:25
  the
• 29:25
  bad
• 29:26
  days.
• 29:26
  So,
• 29:27
  yeah,
• 29:28
  being
• 29:28
  involved
• 29:28
  in
• 29:28
  Agri
• 29:29
  Scott
• 29:29
  and
• 29:29
  as
• 29:29
  long
• 29:30
  as
• 29:30
  the
• 29:30
  cows
• 29:30
  are
• 29:30
  happy,
• 29:30
  we're
• 29:31
  there
• 29:31
  just
• 29:31
  about,
• 29:31
  I
• 29:31
  think,
• 29:32
  John.
• 29:32
  But
• 29:32
  you
• 29:33
  didn't
• 29:33
  give
• 29:33
  recogn.
• 29:33
  You
• 29:34
  didn't
• 29:34
  give
• 29:34
  recognition
• 29:34
  to
• 29:34
  the
• 29:34
  plumber
• 29:35
  there.
• 29:35
  So
• 29:35
  I'm
• 29:36
  a
• 29:36
  bit
• 29:36
  disappointed
• 29:36
  that
• 29:36
  he's
• 29:36
  not
• 29:37
  recommending.
• 29:37
  I
• 29:37
  was
• 29:37
  going
• 29:37
  to
• 29:37
  say
• 29:37
  the
• 29:38
  plumber,
• 29:38
  but
• 29:38
  then,
• 29:38
  yeah,
• 29:39
  Robert
• 29:40
  in
• 29:40
  his
• 29:40
  role,
• 29:40
  although
• 29:41
  when
• 29:41
  he
• 29:41
  was
• 29:42
  chairman
• 29:42
  he
• 29:43
  also
• 29:43
  did
• 29:43
  a
• 29:43
  lot.
• 29:44
  He
• 29:44
  basically
• 29:44
  did
• 29:44
  anything.
• 29:45
  He
• 29:45
  pressure
• 29:46
  washed
• 29:46
  one
• 29:46
  of
• 29:46
  the
• 29:46
  doorways
• 29:47
  to
• 29:47
  clean
• 29:47
  it.
• 29:47
  Did
• 29:48
  a
• 29:48
  lot
• 29:48
  of
• 29:48
  plumbing.
• 29:49
  Clear
• 29:49
  drains.
• 29:50
  Yeah.
• 29:50
  Well,
• 29:50
  I'm
• 29:51
  not
• 29:51
  sure
• 29:51
  that's
• 29:51
  the
• 29:51
  job
• 29:52
  I
• 29:52
  would.
• 29:52
  Plumbing?
• 29:52
  Yeah,
• 29:53
  plumbing
• 29:53
  at
• 29:53
  an
• 29:53
  Agri
• 29:54
  Scott
• 29:54
  event.
• 29:55
  I
• 29:55
  don't
• 29:55
  know
• 29:56
  if
• 29:56
  that's.
• 29:56
  No,
• 29:57
  there
• 29:57
  won't
• 29:57
  be
• 29:58
  too
• 29:58
  many
• 29:58
  chairmen
• 29:58
  cutting
• 29:59
  around
• 29:59
  in
• 29:59
  a
• 29:59
  boiler
• 30:00
  suit
• 30:00
  getting
• 30:00
  their
• 30:00
  hands
• 30:01
  dirty
• 30:01
  events.
• 30:02
  I
• 30:02
  don't
• 30:02
  think
• 30:02
  so.
• 30:03
  It's
• 30:03
  quite
• 30:03
  good.
• 30:04
  Yeah.
• 30:04
  And
• 30:04
  then
• 30:05
  after
• 30:05
  that,
• 30:06
  that
• 30:06
  sort
• 30:06
  of
• 30:06
  like
• 30:06
  reflection,
• 30:08
  reflecting
• 30:08
  on
• 30:08
  things
• 30:09
  and
• 30:09
  are
• 30:09
  you
• 30:10
  good
• 30:10
  at
• 30:10
  sort
• 30:10
  of
• 30:11
  taking
• 30:11
  feedback
• 30:12
  and
• 30:12
  going,
• 30:12
  okay,
• 30:12
  we
• 30:12
  could
• 30:12
  have
• 30:13
  done
• 30:13
  this
• 30:13
  better
• 30:13
  or
• 30:14
  is
• 30:14
  it
• 30:14
  quite
• 30:14
  a
• 30:15
  good
• 30:15
  environment
• 30:16
  for
• 30:16
  sharing
• 30:17
  and
• 30:17
  saying,
• 30:17
  okay,
• 30:17
  no,
• 30:18
  we
• 30:18
  got
• 30:18
  that
• 30:18
  right.
• 30:18
  We
• 30:19
  could
• 30:19
  do
• 30:19
  better.
• 30:19
  You're
• 30:20
  quite
• 30:20
  good
• 30:20
  at
• 30:20
  taking
• 30:21
  that
• 30:21
  feedback.
• 30:22
  Yeah,
• 30:22
  we're
• 30:22
  constantly
• 30:23
  like
• 30:23
  through
• 30:23
  the
• 30:24
  event.
• 30:24
  In
• 30:24
  fact,
• 30:24
  from
• 30:25
  now
• 30:25
  on
• 30:25
  we
• 30:25
  run
• 30:26
  our
• 30:26
  improvements
• 30:27
  document,
• 30:27
  basically
• 30:28
  list
• 30:29
  anything
• 30:29
  in
• 30:29
  any
• 30:30
  of
• 30:30
  the
• 30:30
  different
• 30:30
  areas
• 30:30
  of
• 30:30
  the
• 30:31
  event
• 30:31
  that
• 30:31
  could
• 30:31
  be
• 30:31
  improved.
• 30:32
  We
• 30:32
  do
• 30:33
  exhibitor
• 30:33
  surveys
• 30:34
  and
• 30:34
  visitor
• 30:35
  surveys.
• 30:35
  And
• 30:35
  quite
• 30:35
  often
• 30:36
  at
• 30:36
  the
• 30:36
  event
• 30:36
  you'll
• 30:36
  get
• 30:36
  a
• 30:37
  real
• 30:37
  high.
• 30:38
  You'll
• 30:38
  experience
• 30:39
  some
• 30:40
  really
• 30:40
  good
• 30:40
  feedback
• 30:41
  from
• 30:41
  exhibitors
• 30:43
  seeing
• 30:43
  how
• 30:43
  good
• 30:43
  the
• 30:44
  event's
• 30:44
  been.
• 30:44
  But
• 30:44
  then
• 30:45
  when
• 30:45
  the
• 30:45
  actual
• 30:45
  surveys
• 30:46
  go
• 30:46
  out,
• 30:47
  you'll
• 30:47
  maybe
• 30:47
  get.
• 30:48
  They're
• 30:48
  back
• 30:48
  in
• 30:48
  their
• 30:48
  office
• 30:49
  and
• 30:49
  you
• 30:49
  get
• 30:49
  a
• 30:49
  wee
• 30:50
  bit
• 30:50
  more
• 30:50
  considered
• 30:51
  feedback
• 30:51
  and
• 30:51
  that'll
• 30:52
  just
• 30:53
  not
• 30:53
  take
• 30:53
  the
• 30:53
  edge
• 30:53
  off
• 30:53
  it.
• 30:54
  I
• 30:54
  think
• 30:54
  that's
• 30:54
  good
• 30:54
  because
• 30:55
  you'll
• 30:55
  maybe
• 30:55
  get
• 30:56
  one
• 30:56
  or
• 30:56
  two
• 30:56
  comments
• 30:56
  that
• 30:57
  just
• 30:57
  keep
• 30:57
  you
• 30:58
  from
• 30:58
  becoming
• 30:58
  complacent
• 30:59
  and
• 31:00
  drive
• 31:00
  you
• 31:00
  on
• 31:00
  for
• 31:00
  the
• 31:00
  next
• 31:01
  year.
• 31:02
  And
• 31:02
  Robert,
• 31:02
  just
• 31:02
  thinking
• 31:03
  about
• 31:03
  your
• 31:03
  new
• 31:03
  rule.
• 31:04
  Do
• 31:04
  you
• 31:04
  get
• 31:04
  first
• 31:05
  aid
• 31:05
  nerves
• 31:05
  still?
• 31:06
  All
• 31:06
  the
• 31:06
  time.
• 31:07
  Definitely.
• 31:08
  You
• 31:08
  know,
• 31:08
  there's
• 31:09
  a
• 31:09
  lot
• 31:09
  of
• 31:09
  pressure
• 31:09
  on
• 31:10
  you.
• 31:10
  A
• 31:10
  lot
• 31:10
  of
• 31:10
  speaking
• 31:10
  events
• 31:11
  where
• 31:11
  you're
• 31:11
  obviously
• 31:12
  up
• 31:12
  there
• 31:12
  speaking
• 31:13
  to
• 31:13
  an
• 31:13
  audience
• 31:13
  and
• 31:14
  that
• 31:15
  probably
• 31:15
  gets
• 31:15
  easier
• 31:16
  with.
• 31:17
  As
• 31:17
  time
• 31:17
  goes
• 31:17
  on.
• 31:18
  But
• 31:18
  you
• 31:18
  still
• 31:18
  get
• 31:18
  nervous.
• 31:19
  If
• 31:19
  you
• 31:19
  don't
• 31:19
  get
• 31:19
  nervous,
• 31:20
  you're
• 31:20
  not
• 31:20
  doing
• 31:20
  the
• 31:20
  job
• 31:21
  right,
• 31:21
  I
• 31:22
  don't
• 31:22
  think,
• 31:22
  you
• 31:22
  know,
• 31:22
  and
• 31:22
  get
• 31:23
  that
• 31:23
  adrenaline
• 31:23
  rush.
• 31:24
  And
• 31:24
  you
• 31:24
  spoke
• 31:24
  about
• 31:25
  shaping
• 31:25
  the
• 31:25
  future
• 31:26
  for
• 31:26
  your
• 31:26
  boys
• 31:27
  and
• 31:27
  other
• 31:28
  young
• 31:28
  people
• 31:29
  coming
• 31:29
  through
• 31:29
  the
• 31:29
  industry.
• 31:30
  What
• 31:30
  Are
• 31:30
  you
• 31:31
  relishing
• 31:31
  about
• 31:31
  the
• 31:32
  role?
• 31:33
  Just
• 31:33
  making
• 31:33
  sure
• 31:34
  that
• 31:34
  our
• 31:34
  voice
• 31:35
  is
• 31:35
  heard
• 31:35
  within
• 31:35
  Scotland,
• 31:36
  you
• 31:36
  know,
• 31:36
  within
• 31:36
  government.
• 31:37
  You
• 31:38
  know,
• 31:38
  if
• 31:38
  we've
• 31:38
  not
• 31:38
  got
• 31:38
  agriculture
• 31:39
  in
• 31:39
  Scotland,
• 31:39
  what
• 31:40
  has
• 31:40
  Scotland
• 31:40
  got?
• 31:41
  You
• 31:41
  know,
• 31:41
  we
• 31:41
  have
• 31:41
  tourism
• 31:42
  because
• 31:42
  we've
• 31:42
  got
• 31:42
  a
• 31:43
  lovely
• 31:43
  scenery
• 31:43
  and
• 31:43
  lovely
• 31:44
  hills,
• 31:44
  but
• 31:45
  a
• 31:45
  lot
• 31:45
  of
• 31:45
  those
• 31:45
  hills
• 31:45
  are
• 31:46
  not
• 31:46
  productive,
• 31:46
  you
• 31:47
  know,
• 31:47
  and
• 31:47
  we
• 31:47
  need
• 31:47
  to
• 31:48
  keep
• 31:48
  making
• 31:48
  sure
• 31:49
  that
• 31:49
  we
• 31:49
  keep
• 31:50
  banging
• 31:50
  the
• 31:50
  drums
• 31:51
  for
• 31:51
  everybody
• 31:52
  in
• 31:52
  every
• 31:53
  sector.
• 31:54
  The
• 31:54
  people
• 31:54
  that
• 31:54
  are
• 31:54
  on
• 31:55
  Iona
• 31:56
  mull
• 31:57
  high
• 31:57
  up
• 31:57
  in
• 31:57
  the
• 31:57
  hills,
• 31:58
  the
• 31:58
  people
• 31:58
  down
• 31:58
  in
• 31:58
  the
• 31:59
  borders,
• 31:59
  people
• 31:59
  in
• 31:59
  the
• 31:59
  Northeast,
• 32:00
  you
• 32:00
  know,
• 32:01
  so
• 32:01
  diverse
• 32:02
  in
• 32:03
  so
• 32:03
  many
• 32:03
  different
• 32:03
  systems,
• 32:04
  which
• 32:04
  obviously
• 32:05
  affects
• 32:05
  profitability.
• 32:07
  So
• 32:07
  we
• 32:07
  just
• 32:08
  need
• 32:09
  to
• 32:09
  keep
• 32:09
  working
• 32:09
  away
• 32:10
  at
• 32:10
  it.
• 32:11
  Jordan,
• 32:11
  sadly,
• 32:12
  no
• 32:12
  matter
• 32:12
  what
• 32:12
  we
• 32:13
  think,
• 32:13
  we're
• 32:13
  not
• 32:14
  17.
• 32:15
  What's
• 32:15
  the
• 32:15
  next
• 32:16
  challenge
• 32:16
  for
• 32:17
  you?
• 32:17
  What's
• 32:17
  exciting
• 32:17
  for
• 32:18
  you
• 32:18
  ahead?
• 32:18
  And
• 32:18
  what
• 32:18
  are
• 32:18
  you
• 32:19
  looking
• 32:19
  forward
• 32:19
  to
• 32:19
  the
• 32:19
  most?
• 32:20
  Probably
• 32:21
  just
• 32:21
  keep
• 32:21
  doing
• 32:22
  what
• 32:22
  you're
• 32:22
  doing,
• 32:22
  what
• 32:23
  I'm
• 32:23
  doing,
• 32:23
  but
• 32:24
  do
• 32:24
  it
• 32:24
  better.
• 32:24
  Look
• 32:25
  to
• 32:25
  try
• 32:25
  and
• 32:25
  improve
• 32:26
  every
• 32:26
  day
• 32:26
  in
• 32:27
  what
• 32:27
  you're
• 32:27
  doing.
• 32:27
  Definitely
• 32:27
  going
• 32:28
  to
• 32:28
  be
• 32:28
  exciting
• 32:28
  as
• 32:29
  the
• 32:30
  boys
• 32:30
  get
• 32:30
  more
• 32:30
  involved
• 32:31
  in
• 32:31
  the
• 32:31
  farm
• 32:31
  and
• 32:31
  that,
• 32:32
  you
• 32:32
  know,
• 32:33
  the
• 32:33
  next
• 32:33
  stage
• 32:34
  there
• 32:34
  lies
• 32:34
  ahead.
• 32:35
  Are
• 32:35
  you
• 32:36
  going
• 32:36
  to
• 32:36
  be
• 32:36
  good
• 32:36
  at
• 32:36
  letting
• 32:36
  go
• 32:37
  of
• 32:37
  the
• 32:37
  reins?
• 32:37
  Oh,
• 32:38
  yeah,
• 32:38
  I'll
• 32:38
  have
• 32:38
  to
• 32:38
  be.
• 32:38
  You've
• 32:39
  got
• 32:39
  too
• 32:39
  many
• 32:39
  golf
• 32:39
  courses
• 32:40
  to
• 32:40
  play.
• 32:41
  Golf
• 32:41
  courses
• 32:42
  to
• 32:42
  go
• 32:42
  and
• 32:42
  play.
• 32:42
  Yeah,
• 32:42
  that's.
• 32:43
  That's
• 32:43
  the
• 32:43
  thing,
• 32:44
  I
• 32:44
  think
• 32:44
  you
• 32:44
  have
• 32:44
  to
• 32:44
  be.
• 32:45
  You
• 32:45
  have
• 32:45
  to
• 32:45
  step
• 32:45
  back.
• 32:45
  It's
• 32:46
  also
• 32:46
  quite
• 32:46
  like
• 32:46
  when
• 32:47
  you're
• 32:47
  working
• 32:47
  with
• 32:47
  livestock,
• 32:48
  because
• 32:48
  particularly
• 32:49
  cattle,
• 32:49
  it's
• 32:49
  quite
• 32:49
  a
• 32:50
  dangerous
• 32:50
  job.
• 32:50
  And
• 32:50
  you
• 32:50
  see
• 32:51
  old
• 32:51
  guys
• 32:51
  getting
• 32:52
  clattered
• 32:52
  in
• 32:52
  pens
• 32:53
  and
• 32:53
  stuff
• 32:53
  like
• 32:53
  that.
• 32:54
  The
• 32:54
  animals
• 32:55
  are
• 32:55
  bigger
• 32:55
  and
• 32:55
  stronger
• 32:56
  now
• 32:56
  than
• 32:56
  they
• 32:56
  used
• 32:57
  to
• 32:57
  be.
• 32:57
  Other
• 32:57
  always
• 32:57
  in
• 32:58
  theory,
• 32:58
  getting,
• 32:58
  you
• 32:58
  know,
• 32:58
  there's
• 32:59
  a
• 32:59
  lot
• 32:59
  of
• 32:59
  bigger
• 32:59
  beasts
• 33:00
  around.
• 33:00
  You
• 33:01
  just
• 33:01
  don't
• 33:01
  move
• 33:01
  as
• 33:01
  quickly.
• 33:02
  So,
• 33:02
  yeah,
• 33:03
  you
• 33:03
  do.
• 33:03
  What,
• 33:03
  you
• 33:04
  don't
• 33:04
  want
• 33:04
  to
• 33:04
  linger
• 33:05
  around
• 33:05
  too
• 33:05
  long
• 33:06
  and
• 33:06
  become
• 33:06
  a
• 33:07
  government
• 33:07
  statistic.
• 33:09
  Well,
• 33:09
  keep
• 33:09
  golfing,
• 33:10
  keep
• 33:10
  moving.
• 33:11
  Yeah,
• 33:11
  yeah.
• 33:12
  Already
• 33:12
  broke
• 33:12
  a
• 33:13
  couple
• 33:13
  of
• 33:13
  fingers
• 33:13
  last
• 33:14
  winter
• 33:14
  and
• 33:14
  one
• 33:14
  of
• 33:14
  them
• 33:15
  was
• 33:15
  involved
• 33:15
  in
• 33:15
  a
• 33:15
  cow
• 33:16
  incident.
• 33:16
  So.
• 33:17
  But
• 33:17

• 33:17
  actually
• 33:18
  gives
• 33:18
  me
• 33:18
  a
• 33:18
  good
• 33:18
  excuse.

  it.

  If
• 33:22
  you're
• 33:23
  playing
• 33:23
  poorly,
• 33:23
