  Stephen.
• 0:29
  Thanks

  Our

  chat
• 0:31
  this
• 0:31
  time
• 0:31
  is
• 0:32
  with
• 0:32
  Jenny
• 0:32
  McKerr.
• 0:33
  She's
• 0:34
  from
• 0:34
  South
• 0:34
  Lanarkshire
• 0:35
  and
• 0:35
  she
• 0:36
  calls
• 0:36
  herself
• 0:37
  (I
• 0:37
  love
• 0:37
  this)
• 0:38
  a
• 0:38
  gin
• 0:39
  farmer.
• 0:41
  We
• 0:41
  knew
• 0:41
  we
• 0:41
  had
• 0:42
  to
• 0:42
  diversify,
• 0:42
  but
• 0:43
  we
• 0:43
  had
• 0:43
  no
• 0:43
  money
• 0:43
  to
• 0:43
  get
• 0:44
  started.
• 0:45
  We'd
• 0:45
  just
• 0:45
  get
• 0:45
  into
• 0:45
  our
• 0:45
  gin
• 0:46
  at
• 0:46
  the
• 0:46
  time,
• 0:46
  it'd
• 0:46
  be
• 0:47
  nine
• 0:47
  years,
• 0:48
  about
• 0:48
  nine
• 0:49
  years
• 0:49
  ago.
• 0:50
  And
• 0:50
  I
• 0:50
  said,
• 0:50
  you
• 0:50
  know,
• 0:50
  I
• 0:51
  really
• 0:51
  fancy
• 0:51
  making
• 0:51
  that.
• 0:52
  I
• 0:52
  think
• 0:52
  I
• 0:52
  could
• 0:52
  do
• 0:52
  it.
• 0:53
  And
• 0:53
  the
• 0:53
  more
• 0:53
  I
• 0:54
  spoke
• 0:54
  about
• 0:54
  it
• 0:54
  to
• 0:54
  friends
• 0:55
  and
• 0:56
  family,
• 0:56
  they
• 0:56
  could
• 0:57
  see
• 0:57
  I
• 0:57
  was
• 0:57
  really
• 0:57
  enthusiastic.
• 0:59
  Jenny
• 0:59
  and
• 1:00
  her
• 1:00
  husband
• 1:00
  Stephen
• 1:01
  and
• 1:01
  three
• 1:02
  young
• 1:02
  daughters
• 1:03
  stayed
• 1:03
  in
• 1:03
  a
• 1:04
  caravan
• 1:04
  on
• 1:04
  site
• 1:05
  for
• 1:05
  three
• 1:06
  years,
• 1:06
  chasing
• 1:07
  their
• 1:07
  dream
• 1:08
  of
• 1:08
  becoming
• 1:09
  farmers.
• 1:10
  We'd
• 1:11
  put
• 1:11
  this
• 1:11
  caravan
• 1:11
  and
• 1:12
  we'd
• 1:12
  put
• 1:12
  straw
• 1:12
  bales
• 1:13
  up
• 1:13
  the
• 1:13
  back
• 1:13
  of
• 1:14
  it
• 1:14
  just
• 1:14
  to
• 1:14
  insulate
• 1:15
  it
• 1:15
  and,
• 1:15
  you
• 1:15
  know,
• 1:16
  keep
• 1:16
  a
• 1:16
  bit
• 1:16
  of
• 1:16
  heat
• 1:16
  in.
• 1:17
  And
• 1:17
  then
• 1:17
  of
• 1:18
  course,
• 1:18
  back
• 1:18
  end
• 1:19
  of
• 1:19
  winter,
• 1:19
  you're
• 1:19
  getting
• 1:19
  into
• 1:19
  spring
• 1:20
  and
• 1:20
  we'd
• 1:20
  ran
• 1:20
  out
• 1:20
  of
• 1:21
  straw
• 1:21
  for
• 1:21
  the
• 1:21
  cattle.
• 1:21
  So
• 1:22
  a
• 1:22
  wee
• 1:22
  bit
• 1:22
  of
• 1:22
  light
• 1:23
  come
• 1:23
  the
• 1:23
  kitchen
• 1:23
  window.
• 1:24
  I'm
• 1:24
  going,
• 1:24
  he's
• 1:25
  took
• 1:25
  one
• 1:25
  of
• 1:25
  they
• 1:25
  bales
• 1:25
  for
• 1:25
  the
• 1:26
  cattle,
• 1:26
  and
• 1:26
  then
• 1:26
  the
• 1:27
  insulation
• 1:27
  started
• 1:28
  disappearing.
• 1:29
  But
• 1:29
  it's
• 1:29
  not
• 1:29
  all
• 1:30
  work
• 1:30
  and
• 1:30
  no
• 1:30
  play.
• 1:31
  As
• 1:31
  a
• 1:31
  mum
• 1:31
  of
• 1:32
  three
• 1:32
  girls,
• 1:32
  Jenny
• 1:33
  talks
• 1:33
  about
• 1:33
  the
• 1:34
  importance
• 1:34
  of
• 1:35
  prioritising
• 1:36
  family
• 1:36
  time.
• 1:37
  It's
• 1:37
  me
• 1:37
  that
• 1:38
  will
• 1:38
  take
• 1:38
  a
• 1:38
  step
• 1:38
  back
• 1:38
  and
• 1:39
  say,
• 1:39
  right,
• 1:39
  we're
• 1:39
  needing
• 1:39
  some
• 1:39
  time
• 1:40
  off
• 1:40
  because
• 1:41
  I
• 1:41
  don't
• 1:41
  want
• 1:41
  the
• 1:41
  kids
• 1:42
  growing
• 1:42
  up
• 1:42
  thinking,
• 1:42
  "oh,
• 1:42
  Mum
• 1:43
  and
• 1:43
  Dad
• 1:43
  just
• 1:43
  worked
• 1:43
  all
• 1:43
  the
• 1:44
  time".
• 1:51
  Jenny.
• 1:51
  I
• 1:52
  normally
• 1:52
  start
• 1:52
  these
• 1:53
  podcasts
• 1:53
  with
• 1:54
  a
• 1:54
  round
• 1:54
  of
• 1:55
  rapid
• 1:55
  fire
• 1:55
  questions.
• 1:56
  Are
• 1:57
  you
• 1:57
  up
• 1:57
  for
• 1:57
  answering
• 1:57
  a
• 1:58
  few
• 1:58
  of
• 1:58
  them?
• 1:58
  Aye,
• 1:59
  batter
• 1:59
  on,
• 2:01
  Okay,
• 2:01
  we'll
• 2:01
  just
• 2:02
  go
• 2:02
  for
• 2:02
  it.
• 2:02
  Listen,
• 2:02
  just
• 2:02
  your
• 2:02
  first,
• 2:02
  your
• 2:03
  first
• 2:03
  answer,
• 2:03
  just
• 2:04
  go
• 2:04
  for
• 2:04
  it.
• 2:04
  How
• 2:05
  do
• 2:05
  you
• 2:05
  start
• 2:05
  your
• 2:05
  day?
• 2:06
  So
• 2:06
  I've
• 2:06
  got
• 2:06
  three
• 2:07
  daughters,
• 2:07
  so
• 2:08
  I'm
• 2:08
  up
• 2:08
  and
• 2:08
  make
• 2:09
  sure
• 2:09
  that
• 2:09
  they're
• 2:09
  up.
• 2:09
  Two
• 2:09
  of
• 2:09
  them
• 2:10
  are
• 2:10
  teens
• 2:10
  at
• 2:10
  the
• 2:10
  minute,
• 2:11
  so
• 2:11
  we're
• 2:11
  trying
• 2:11
  to
• 2:12
  keep
• 2:12
  teens
• 2:12
  motivated
• 2:12
  in
• 2:13

• 2:15
  and
• 2:15

• 2:16
  and
• 2:16
  then
• 2:17
  I
• 2:17
  make
• 2:17
  time
• 2:17

• 2:18
  before
• 2:18

• 2:20
  vice
• 2:21
  you
• 2:21
  wish
• 2:21

• 2:22
  Oh,
• 2:24
  eating
• 2:24
  the
• 2:24
  wrong
• 2:25
  things
• 2:25
  when
• 2:25
  I'm
• 2:25
  stressed.
• 2:26
  Like
• 2:26
  the
• 2:26
  lambing
• 2:27
  diet's
• 2:27
  ridiculous.
• 2:28
  Coffee

• 2:28
  Kit
• 2:28
  Kats
• 2:29

• 2:30
  Yeah,

  lambing,
• 2:31
  Yeah.
• 2:31
  I

  get
• 2:32
  those
• 2:32
  meals
• 2:33

  lambing
• 2:33
  time.
• 2:34
  What's
• 2:34
  one
• 2:34
  thing
• 2:35
  people
• 2:35
  don't
• 2:35

• 2:35
  about

  you?
• 2:37
  I
• 2:38
  was
• 2:38
  vegetarian
• 2:39
  for
• 2:39
  eight
• 2:39
  years.
• 2:40
  What

  three
• 2:40
  words
• 2:41
  to
• 2:41
  describe
• 2:41
  living
• 2:42
  in
• 2:42
  South

  Lanarkshire?
• 2:45
  Community,
• 2:46
  challenging
• 2:49
  and
• 2:49
  fun.
• 2:50
  What's
• 2:51
  your

  pet
• 2:51
  peeve?
• 2:55
  Hmm,

  pet
• 2:55
  peeve?

  We
• 3:00
  can
• 3:00
  come
• 3:00
  back
• 3:00
  to
• 3:01
  that.
• 3:01
  Have
• 3:01
  a
• 3:01
  wee
• 3:01
  think
• 3:01
  about
• 3:01
  it.
• 3:02
  What's
• 3:02
  the
• 3:03
  one
• 3:03
  thing
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  wish
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  knew
• 3:04
  at
• 3:04
  age
• 3:04
  19?
• 3:06
  Just
• 3:06
  to
• 3:06
  ask.
• 3:08
  Just
• 3:08
  ask
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  question.
• 3:09
  Don't
• 3:09
  shy
• 3:10
  away
• 3:10
  from
• 3:10
  it.
• 3:10
  Just
• 3:10
  if
• 3:11
  you
• 3:11
  want
• 3:11
  to
• 3:11
  do
• 3:11
  something,
• 3:12
  chase
• 3:12
  it.
• 3:13
  What's
• 3:14
  something
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  don't
• 3:14
  want
• 3:15
  to
• 3:15
  be
• 3:15
  doing
• 3:15
  in
• 3:15
  10
• 3:15
  years?
• 3:16
  Oh,
• 3:20
  hmm.
• 3:23
  These
• 3:24
  are
• 3:24
  difficult
• 3:24
  questions,
• 3:25
  Sarah.
• 3:25
  I
• 3:25
  don't
• 3:25
  know
• 3:25
  if
• 3:25
  it's
• 3:26
  too
• 3:26
  early
• 3:26
  for
• 3:26
  this
• 3:26
  to
• 3:27
  be
• 3:27
  honest
• 3:27
  with
• 3:27
  you.
• 3:28
  Right,
• 3:28
  we'll
• 3:29
  park
• 3:29
  that
• 3:29
  one,
• 3:29
  we'll
• 3:30
  park
• 3:30
  that
• 3:30
  one
• 3:30
  because
• 3:31
  that
• 3:31
  might
• 3:31
  be
• 3:31
  quite
• 3:31
  a
• 3:31
  good
• 3:31
  one
• 3:32
  for
• 3:32
  the

  might,

  come
• 3:37
  back
• 3:37
  to
• 3:38
  10
• 3:38
  years
• 3:38
  time.

  Let's

  does
• 3:49
  that
• 3:50
  mean?
• 3:51
  So,
• 3:51
  I'm
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  first
• 3:52
  generation
• 3:53
  farmer,
• 3:53
  first
• 3:54
  of
• 3:54
  all.
• 3:54
  So
• 3:54
  we've
• 3:55
  just
• 3:55
  had
• 3:55
  the
• 3:55
  farm
• 3:56
  coming
• 3:56
  10
• 3:56
  years
• 3:57
  now
• 3:57
  and
• 3:57
  it
• 3:57
  seems
• 3:57
  like
• 3:58
  no
• 3:58
  time
• 3:58
  at
• 3:58
  all
• 3:58
  but
• 3:59
  working
• 3:59
  up
• 3:59
  to
• 4:00
  a
• 4:00
  10
• 4:00
  year
• 4:00
  farm-iversary
• 4:01
  which
• 4:01
  is
• 4:01
  quite
• 4:01
  exciting.
• 4:02
  And
• 4:03
  it's
• 4:03
  only
• 4:03
  a
• 4:03
  45
• 4:04
  acre
• 4:04
  farm
• 4:04
  so
• 4:05
  you
• 4:05
  call
• 4:05
  it
• 4:05
  a
• 4:05
  small
• 4:05
  holding
• 4:06
  or
• 4:06
  call
• 4:06
  it
• 4:06
  what
• 4:06
  you
• 4:07
  want,
• 4:07
  but
• 4:07
  it's
• 4:07
  our
• 4:07
  wee
• 4:08
  45
• 4:08
  acre
• 4:09
  but
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  land
• 4:09
  in
• 4:09
  South
• 4:09
  Lanarkshire
• 4:10
  and
• 4:11
  it's
• 4:11
  our
• 4:11
  opportunity.
• 4:13
  When
• 4:13
  we
• 4:13
  bought
• 4:13
  it,
• 4:13
  it
• 4:14
  was
• 4:15
  a
• 4:15
  big
• 4:15
  risk
• 4:15
  because
• 4:16
  it
• 4:16
  didn't
• 4:16
  really
• 4:16
  have
• 4:16
  a
• 4:16
  house.
• 4:17
  We've
• 4:17
  done
• 4:17
  the
• 4:17
  whole
• 4:18
  move,
• 4:18
  the
• 4:18
  family
• 4:19
  and
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  caravan,
• 4:20
  carry
• 4:20
  on
• 4:21
  and
• 4:21
  start
• 4:22
  from
• 4:22
  scratch.
• 4:23
  And
• 4:23
  we
• 4:24
  didn't
• 4:24
  start
• 4:25
  farming
• 4:25
  with
• 4:25
  a
• 4:25
  big
• 4:26
  view
• 4:26
  of,
• 4:26
  you
• 4:26
  know,
• 4:26
  having
• 4:27
  a
• 4:27
  distillery
• 4:27
  and
• 4:27
  a
• 4:28
  farm
• 4:28
  shop
• 4:28
  and
• 4:29
  doing
• 4:29
  experiences.
• 4:30
  We
• 4:30
  just
• 4:30
  wanted
• 4:30
  to
• 4:30
  produce
• 4:31
  good
• 4:31
  lamb
• 4:31
  and
• 4:32
  good
• 4:32
  beef.
• 4:33
  I
• 4:33
  was
• 4:33
  in
• 4:33
  the
• 4:34
  meat
• 4:34
  industry
• 4:34
  at
• 4:34
  the
• 4:34
  time
• 4:35
  and
• 4:35
  that
• 4:35
  was
• 4:35
  the
• 4:35
  whole
• 4:36
  goal
• 4:36
  was
• 4:36
  get
• 4:36
  some
• 4:36
  acres
• 4:37
  and
• 4:37
  put
• 4:38
  on
• 4:38
  good
• 4:38
  livestock
• 4:39
  and
• 4:39
  produce
• 4:39
  native
• 4:40
  meat.
• 4:41
  And
• 4:41
  the
• 4:42
  amount
• 4:42
  of
• 4:42
  comments
• 4:42
  we
• 4:43
  got
• 4:43
  about,
• 4:43
  "oh,
• 4:43
  you'll
• 4:43
  never
• 4:43
  make
• 4:44
  that
• 4:44
  work,
• 4:44
  45
• 4:45
  acres,
• 4:45
  that's
• 4:45
  just
• 4:45
  not
• 4:45
  going
• 4:46
  to
• 4:46
  do."
• 4:46
  But
• 4:46
  things
• 4:47
  evolve.
• 4:47
  And
• 4:48
  after
• 4:48
  a
• 4:48
  year
• 4:48
  of
• 4:48
  putting
• 4:49
  our
• 4:49
  life
• 4:49
  savings
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  feeding
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  bed
• 4:51
  and
• 4:51
  cattle
• 4:51
  and
• 4:52
  sheep,
• 4:53
  we
• 4:53
  realised
• 4:53
  quite
• 4:54
  quickly
• 4:54
  we
• 4:54
  had
• 4:54
  to
• 4:54
  do
• 4:54
  something
• 4:55
  different.
• 4:56
  We
• 4:56
  soon
• 4:56
  realised
• 4:57
  we're
• 4:57
  going
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  have
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  generate
• 4:58
  some
• 4:58
  income
• 4:58
  fairly
• 4:59
  quickly,
• 4:59
  to
• 5:00
  sustain
• 5:00
  our
• 5:01
  cattle
• 5:01
  while
• 5:01
  they're
• 5:02
  growing.
• 5:03
  Sorry,
• 5:03
  Jenny.
• 5:04
  Was
• 5:04
  that
• 5:04
  a
• 5:05
  joint
• 5:05
  dream,
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  beef
• 5:06
  and
• 5:06
  sheep?
• 5:07
  Definitely.
• 5:08
  We
• 5:08
  always
• 5:08
  said
• 5:09
  if
• 5:09
  we
• 5:09
  don't
• 5:09
  have
• 5:09
  a
• 5:09
  farm
• 5:10
  the
• 5:10
  time
• 5:10
  we're
• 5:10
  40,
• 5:11
  we'll
• 5:11
  move
• 5:11
  to
• 5:11
  New
• 5:11
  Zealand.
• 5:13
  That
• 5:13
  was
• 5:13
  our
• 5:13
  kind
• 5:13
  of
• 5:14
  plan
• 5:14
  B.
• 5:14
  We
• 5:14
  always
• 5:14
  kind
• 5:15
  of
• 5:15
  like
• 5:15
  the
• 5:15
  idea
• 5:15
  of
• 5:16
  going
• 5:16
  to
• 5:16
  New
• 5:16
  Zealand
• 5:16
  and
• 5:17
  maybe
• 5:17
  contract
• 5:17
  farming
• 5:18
  or
• 5:18
  starting
• 5:18
  out
• 5:18
  there.
• 5:19
  And
• 5:19
  we
• 5:20
  bought
• 5:20
  the
• 5:20
  farm
• 5:20
  when
• 5:20
  I
• 5:21
  was
• 5:21
  33
• 5:22
  and
• 5:23
  I
• 5:23
  think
• 5:23
  it
• 5:23
  was
• 5:23
  something
• 5:24
  we
• 5:24
  always
• 5:24
  wanted.
• 5:25
  You
• 5:25
  know,
• 5:25
  we'd
• 5:25
  been
• 5:25
  together
• 5:25
  in
• 5:26
  our
• 5:26
  20s
• 5:26
  and
• 5:26
  we'd
• 5:26
  always
• 5:27
  worked
• 5:27
  really
• 5:27
  hard.
• 5:27
  My
• 5:28
  husband,
• 5:28
  Steven,
• 5:28
  he's
• 5:29
  a
• 5:29
  fencer,
• 5:29
  so
• 5:29
  he's
• 5:30
  doing
• 5:31
  agricultural
• 5:31
  forestry
• 5:32
  fencing.
• 5:32
  So
• 5:33
  he's
• 5:33
  off
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  farm
• 5:33
  most
• 5:34
  days,
• 5:34
  which
• 5:34
  is
• 5:34
  probably
• 5:35
  why
• 5:35
  it
• 5:36
  works
• 5:36
  so
• 5:36
  well,
• 5:37
  because
• 5:37
  he
• 5:37
  goes
• 5:37
  and
• 5:37
  does
• 5:38
  his
• 5:38
  thing
• 5:38
  and
• 5:39
  I
• 5:39
  can
• 5:39
  do
• 5:39
  what
• 5:39
  I
• 5:39
  need
• 5:39
  to
• 5:39
  do
• 5:40
  at
• 5:40
  the
• 5:40
  farm.
• 5:41
  I
• 5:42
  think
• 5:42
  when
• 5:42
  you
• 5:42
  want
• 5:42
  something
• 5:42
  for
• 5:43
  so
• 5:43
  long,
• 5:44
  you're
• 5:44
  going
• 5:44
  to
• 5:44
  find
• 5:44
  a
• 5:44
  way
• 5:45
  to
• 5:45
  make
• 5:45
  it
• 5:45
  work.
• 5:45
  You
• 5:46
  know,
• 5:46
  you
• 5:46
  kind
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  just
• 5:46
  have
• 5:46
  coos
• 5:47
  and
• 5:47
  sheep
• 5:47
  on
• 5:47
  45
• 5:48
  acres
• 5:49
  and
• 5:49
  sustain
• 5:49
  your
• 5:49
  family.
• 5:50
  So
• 5:50
  we
• 5:50
  had
• 5:50
  to
• 5:50
  think
• 5:51
  outside
• 5:51
  the
• 5:51
  box.
• 5:52
  And
• 5:52
  that
• 5:53
  was
• 5:53
  more.
• 5:53
  That's
• 5:53
  more
• 5:54
  my
• 5:54
  comfort
• 5:54
  zone.
• 5:54
  Stephen's
• 5:55
  very
• 5:55
  much
• 5:55
  black
• 5:56
  and
• 5:56
  white,
• 5:56
  you
• 5:56
  know,
• 5:56
  cows
• 5:57
  and
• 5:57
  sheep,
• 5:57
  quite
• 5:57
  old
• 5:58
  school.
• 5:58
  Whereas
• 5:59
  I
• 5:59
  had
• 5:59
  to
• 5:59
  challenge
• 6:00
  him
• 6:00
  a
• 6:00
  wee
• 6:00
  bit
• 6:01
  to
• 6:01
  do
• 6:01
  things
• 6:01
  differently
• 6:02
  as
• 6:02
  well.
• 6:03
  I
• 6:03
  think
• 6:03
  that's
• 6:03
  often
• 6:03
  the
• 6:04
  way,
• 6:04
  isn't
• 6:04
  it,
• 6:04
  with
• 6:05
  a
• 6:05
  partnership,
• 6:05
  albeit
• 6:06
  you're.
• 6:06
  Steven
• 6:07
  is
• 6:07
  offfarm.
• 6:08
  You're
• 6:08
  not
• 6:08
  just
• 6:08
  living
• 6:09
  together,
• 6:09
  you're
• 6:09
  not
• 6:09
  just
• 6:10
  married,
• 6:11
  you're
• 6:11
  working
• 6:11
  together.
• 6:12
  And
• 6:12
  it
• 6:13
  can
• 6:13
  be
• 6:13
  all
• 6:13
  consuming
• 6:14
  at
• 6:14
  times?
• 6:15
  Yeah,
• 6:16
  yeah,
• 6:16
  it's.
• 6:17
  It's.
• 6:17
  It's
• 6:17
  our.
• 6:18
  It's
• 6:18
  a
• 6:18
  life
• 6:18
  we've
• 6:18
  created.
• 6:19
  But
• 6:20
  I
• 6:20
  keep
• 6:21
  reminding
• 6:21
  of
• 6:21
  that.
• 6:21
  It's
• 6:21
  like
• 6:22
  we've
• 6:22
  created
• 6:22
  this.
• 6:23
  And
• 6:23
  I
• 6:23
  think
• 6:23
  the
• 6:23
  nice
• 6:23
  thing
• 6:24
  about
• 6:24
  being
• 6:24
  first
• 6:24
  generation
• 6:25
  is
• 6:25
  that
• 6:25
  if
• 6:25
  we
• 6:25
  try
• 6:26
  it
• 6:26
  and
• 6:26
  it
• 6:26
  doesn't
• 6:26
  work
• 6:27
  right,
• 6:27
  we
• 6:28
  learn
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  it
• 6:28
  and
• 6:28
  we
• 6:28
  move
• 6:28
  on.
• 6:29
  And
• 6:30
  we're
• 6:30
  very
• 6:30
  open
• 6:30
  about
• 6:31
  it.
• 6:31
  If
• 6:32
  it's
• 6:32
  too
• 6:32
  stressful,
• 6:33
  if
• 6:33
  we're
• 6:33
  not
• 6:34
  enjoying
• 6:34
  it,
• 6:35
  then
• 6:35
  we
• 6:35
  stop,
• 6:36
  you
• 6:36
  know,
• 6:36
  we
• 6:37
  try
• 6:37
  something
• 6:37
  else.
• 6:37
  So
• 6:38
  we're
• 6:38
  not
• 6:38
  fixed
• 6:38
  in
• 6:39
  our
• 6:39
  ways.
• 6:39
  We're
• 6:40
  quite
• 6:40
  open
• 6:40
  to
• 6:40
  trying
• 6:41
  different
• 6:41
  things
• 6:41
  at
• 6:41
  the
• 6:41
  farm.
• 6:42
  And
• 6:42
  I
• 6:42
  think
• 6:43
  this
• 6:43
  size
• 6:43
  of
• 6:43
  farm
• 6:43
  allows
• 6:44
  you
• 6:44
  to
• 6:44
  do
• 6:44
  that
• 6:44
  without
• 6:44
  too
• 6:45
  much
• 6:45
  risk.
• 6:46
  I'm
• 6:46
  just
• 6:46
  thinking
• 6:47
  back
• 6:47
  to
• 6:47
  those
• 6:47
  early
• 6:48
  days.
• 6:48
  You're
• 6:49
  in
• 6:49
  a
• 6:49
  caravan,
• 6:49
  you've
• 6:50
  got
• 6:50
  the
• 6:50
  girls,
• 6:50
  the
• 6:50
  three
• 6:51
  girls.
• 6:51
  I
• 6:52
  can
• 6:52
  only
• 6:52
  imagine
• 6:53
  there
• 6:53
  were
• 6:53
  some
• 6:53
  tough
• 6:54
  days.
• 6:55
  What
• 6:55
  were
• 6:56
  those
• 6:57
  initial
• 6:58
  days
• 6:58
  like?
• 6:59
  I
• 6:59
  mean,
• 6:59
  practically
• 7:00
  and
• 7:00
  just
• 7:00
  getting
• 7:01
  to
• 7:01
  grips
• 7:01
  with
• 7:01
  everything.
• 7:02
  But
• 7:02
  also,
• 7:03
  you
• 7:03
  know,
• 7:03
  what
• 7:03
  were
• 7:03
  the
• 7:03
  major
• 7:04
  wobbles?
• 7:05
  Were
• 7:05
  there
• 7:05
  any
• 7:05
  major
• 7:05
  wobbles
• 7:06
  and
• 7:06
  what
• 7:07
  were
• 7:07
  they?
• 7:08
  Aye,
• 7:08
  we
• 7:10
  spent
• 7:10
  all
• 7:11
  our
• 7:11
  money
• 7:11
  and
• 7:12
  borrowed
• 7:12
  as
• 7:12
  much
• 7:12
  as
• 7:13
  we
• 7:13
  could
• 7:13
  to
• 7:13
  buy
• 7:13
  the
• 7:14
  farm.
• 7:14
  We
• 7:14
  kind
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  bought
• 7:15
  it
• 7:15
  by
• 7:15
  accident.
• 7:15
  It
• 7:16
  was
• 7:16
  one
• 7:16
  of
• 7:16
  the
• 7:16
  ones
• 7:16
  who
• 7:16
  put
• 7:16
  an
• 7:17
  offer
• 7:17
  in
• 7:17
  because
• 7:18
  we
• 7:18
  really
• 7:18
  wanted
• 7:19
  it
• 7:19
  and
• 7:19
  we
• 7:19
  didn't
• 7:20
  have
• 7:20
  any
• 7:20
  funds
• 7:20
  or
• 7:21
  business
• 7:21
  plan
• 7:21
  to
• 7:22
  buy
• 7:22
  it,
• 7:23
  and
• 7:23
  we
• 7:23
  didn't
• 7:23
  expect
• 7:24
  our
• 7:24
  offer
• 7:24
  to
• 7:24
  get
• 7:24
  accepted
• 7:25
  and
• 7:25
  when
• 7:25
  it
• 7:25
  did
• 7:26
  we
• 7:26
  panicked
• 7:26
  accordingly.
• 7:28
  So
• 7:29
  we
• 7:29
  had
• 7:29
  to
• 7:29
  learn
• 7:29
  really
• 7:30
  quick
• 7:30
  about
• 7:30
  commercial
• 7:31
  mortgages
• 7:32
  and
• 7:33
  create
• 7:33
  this
• 7:33
  business
• 7:34
  plan.
• 7:34
  And
• 7:34
  it
• 7:34
  was
• 7:35
  all
• 7:35
  based
• 7:35
  around
• 7:35
  quality
• 7:36
  beef.
• 7:37
  But
• 7:37
  I
• 7:37
  suppose
• 7:37
  some
• 7:38
  of
• 7:38
  the
• 7:38
  early
• 7:38
  day
• 7:38
  challenges
• 7:39
  was,
• 7:39
  I
• 7:39
  was
• 7:40
  pregnant
• 7:40
  when
• 7:40
  we
• 7:40
  bought
• 7:40
  the
• 7:41
  farm.
• 7:41
  Yes.
• 7:42
  I
• 7:42
  brought
• 7:42
  a
• 7:42
  newborn
• 7:43
  back
• 7:43
  into
• 7:43
  the
• 7:43
  caravan
• 7:44
  and
• 7:45
  it
• 7:45
  was
• 7:45
  the
• 7:45
  funniest
• 7:45
  thing.
• 7:46
  We'd
• 7:46
  put
• 7:46
  this
• 7:46
  caravan
• 7:47
  and
• 7:47
  we'd
• 7:48
  put
• 7:48
  straw
• 7:48
  bales
• 7:49
  up
• 7:49
  the
• 7:49
  back
• 7:49
  of
• 7:49
  it
• 7:50
  just
• 7:50
  to
• 7:50
  insulate
• 7:51
  it
• 7:51
  and
• 7:51
  you
• 7:51
  know,
• 7:52
  keep
• 7:52
  a
• 7:52
  bit
• 7:52
  of
• 7:52
  heat
• 7:52
  in
• 7:52
  because
• 7:52
  the
• 7:53
  floors
• 7:53
  were
• 7:53
  quite
• 7:53
  cold.
• 7:54
  And
• 7:54
  then
• 7:55
  of
• 7:55
  course
• 7:55
  back
• 7:56
  end
• 7:56
  of
• 7:56
  winter,
• 7:56
  you're
• 7:56
  getting
• 7:56
  into
• 7:57
  spring
• 7:57
  and
• 7:57
  we'd
• 7:57
  ran
• 7:58
  out
• 7:58
  of
• 7:58
  straw
• 7:58
  for
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  cattle.
• 7:59
  So
• 7:59
  a
• 8:00
  wee
• 8:00
  bit
• 8:00
  of
• 8:00
  light
• 8:00
  come
• 8:00
  in
• 8:00
  the
• 8:01
  kitchen
• 8:01
  window.
• 8:01
  I'm
• 8:01
  going,
• 8:02
  he's
• 8:02
  took
• 8:02
  one
• 8:02
  of
• 8:02
  they
• 8:03
  bales
• 8:03
  for
• 8:03
  the
• 8:03
  cattle.
• 8:03
  And
• 8:04
  then
• 8:04
  the
• 8:04
  insulation
• 8:05
  started
• 8:05
  disappearing
• 8:06
  over
• 8:07
  the
• 8:07
  spring
• 8:07
  and
• 8:07
  the
• 8:08
  cattle
• 8:08
  were
• 8:08
  getting
• 8:08
  bedded
• 8:09
  with
• 8:09
  our
• 8:09
  caravan
• 8:10
  insulation.
• 8:10
  But
• 8:11
  you
• 8:11
  just
• 8:11
  made
• 8:12
  it
• 8:12
  work.
• 8:12
  And
• 8:12
  what
• 8:12
  an
• 8:13
  adventure.
• 8:13
  Like,
• 8:13
  honestly,
• 8:14
  you
• 8:14
  look
• 8:14
  at
• 8:14
  it
• 8:15
  and
• 8:15
  you're
• 8:15
  like,
• 8:15
  we
• 8:15
  had,
• 8:16
  we
• 8:16
  had
• 8:16
  nothing
• 8:16
  to
• 8:16
  our
• 8:17
  names
• 8:17
  but
• 8:18
  we
• 8:18
  had
• 8:18
  our
• 8:18
  own
• 8:18
  wee
• 8:19
  place.
• 8:20
  We
• 8:20
  could
• 8:20
  go
• 8:20
  outside,
• 8:21
  feed
• 8:21
  our
• 8:21
  cows
• 8:22
  and
• 8:22
  our
• 8:22
  sheep.
• 8:22
  I
• 8:23
  was
• 8:23
  on
• 8:23
  maternity
• 8:23
  at
• 8:23
  the
• 8:24
  time
• 8:24
  from
• 8:24
  the
• 8:24
  quarry,
• 8:25
  so
• 8:25
  I
• 8:25
  could
• 8:25
  spend
• 8:26
  time
• 8:26
  with
• 8:26
  my
• 8:26
  family
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  I'd
• 8:27
  never
• 8:28
  had
• 8:28
  before.
• 8:28
  It
• 8:29
  was
• 8:29
  my
• 8:29
  third
• 8:29
  maternity
• 8:30
  and
• 8:30
  I
• 8:30
  was
• 8:31
  able
• 8:31
  to
• 8:31
  be
• 8:31
  at
• 8:31
  home
• 8:31
  a
• 8:32
  wee
• 8:32
  bit
• 8:32
  longer.
• 8:33
  So
• 8:33
  I
• 8:33
  really
• 8:33
  enjoyed
• 8:34
  just,
• 8:35
  you
• 8:35
  know,
• 8:35
  starting
• 8:36
  to
• 8:37
  spend
• 8:37
  time
• 8:37
  differently.
• 8:38
  Being
• 8:38
  at
• 8:38
  home.
• 8:39
  You
• 8:39
  would
• 8:40
  repair
• 8:40
  a
• 8:40
  bit
• 8:40
  of
• 8:40
  wall,
• 8:41
  you
• 8:41
  know,
• 8:41
  do
• 8:41
  a
• 8:41
  bit
• 8:41
  of
• 8:41
  needle
• 8:41
  gunning,
• 8:42
  a
• 8:42
  bit
• 8:42
  of,
• 8:42
  you
• 8:42
  know,
• 8:42
  you'd
• 8:43
  repair
• 8:43
  something
• 8:43
  and
• 8:44
  you'd
• 8:44
  go
• 8:44
  like
• 8:44
  that's
• 8:44
  another
• 8:44
  wee
• 8:45
  bit
• 8:45
  done.
• 8:45
  And
• 8:45
  just
• 8:46
  started
• 8:46
  chipping
• 8:47
  away
• 8:47
  at
• 8:47
  it.
• 8:47
  You
• 8:48
  know,
• 8:48
  there
• 8:48
  was.
• 8:48
  You
• 8:48
  were
• 8:48
  never
• 8:48
  idle.
• 8:49
  Well,
• 8:49
  most
• 8:50
  new
• 8:50
  mums
• 8:50
  are
• 8:50
  just
• 8:50
  trying
• 8:50
  to
• 8:51
  get
• 8:51
  through
• 8:51
  the
• 8:51
  day,
• 8:51
  you
• 8:51
  know,
• 8:52
  from
• 8:52
  the
• 8:52
  morning
• 8:52
  through
• 8:53
  to
• 8:53
  the
• 8:53
  night.
• 8:53
  But
• 8:54
  you
• 8:54
  know,
• 8:54
  you
• 8:54
  had
• 8:55
  so
• 8:55
  much
• 8:55
  on
• 8:55
  your
• 8:55
  plate
• 8:56
  and
• 8:56
  you
• 8:56
  referred
• 8:57
  in
• 8:57
  the,
• 8:58
  in
• 8:58
  one
• 8:58
  of
• 8:58
  their
• 8:58
  first
• 8:59
  answers
• 8:59
  that
• 8:59
  you
• 8:59
  used
• 9:00
  to
• 9:00
  work
• 9:00
  in
• 9:00
  the
• 9:01
  meat
• 9:01
  industry.
• 9:02
  Aye,
• 9:02
  so
• 9:03
  was
• 9:03
  13
• 9:03
  years
• 9:03
  where
• 9:04
  a
• 9:04
  well
• 9:04
  known
• 9:04
  beef
• 9:05
  processor
• 9:05
  in
• 9:06
  Scotland
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  I
• 9:07
  was
• 9:07
  very
• 9:07
  fortunate.
• 9:07
  I
• 9:08
  started
• 9:08
  there
• 9:08
  as
• 9:08
  a
• 9:08
  graduate
• 9:09
  and
• 9:09
  had
• 9:09
  a
• 9:09
  fantastic
• 9:10
  mentor
• 9:11
  throughout
• 9:12
  my
• 9:12
  career.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:13
  I
• 9:13
  started
• 9:13
  off
• 9:14
  as
• 9:14
  a
• 9:14
  graduate
• 9:15
  into
• 9:15
  continuous
• 9:15
  improvement
• 9:16
  into
• 9:17
  operations
• 9:17
  management
• 9:18
  across
• 9:18
  the
• 9:18
  abattoir
• 9:19
  cutting
• 9:20
  plant
• 9:20
  and
• 9:21
  for
• 9:21
  the
• 9:21
  processing
• 9:22
  factories.
• 9:22
  It
• 9:23
  was
• 9:23
  dealing
• 9:23
  with
• 9:23
  people,
• 9:24
  processes,
• 9:25
  product.
• 9:25
  And
• 9:26
  there
• 9:26
  was
• 9:26
  a
• 9:26
  real
• 9:26
  great
• 9:27
  pride
• 9:27
  there
• 9:27
  how
• 9:27
  you
• 9:28
  handled
• 9:28
  Scotch
• 9:29
  beef
• 9:29
  as
• 9:29
  well.
• 9:30
  So
• 9:30
  that
• 9:31
  was
• 9:31
  my,
• 9:31
  my
• 9:31
  background
• 9:32
  career
• 9:33
  and
• 9:33
  I
• 9:33
  absolutely
• 9:34
  loved
• 9:34
  my
• 9:34
  time
• 9:34
  in
• 9:34
  the
• 9:35
  meat
• 9:35
  industry.
• 9:35
  It
• 9:35
  was
• 9:36
  similar
• 9:37
  to
• 9:37
  farming.
• 9:37
  It's
• 9:38
  a
• 9:38
  tight
• 9:38
  network
• 9:38
  and
• 9:39
  there's
• 9:39
  a
• 9:39
  lot
• 9:39
  of
• 9:39
  pride
• 9:39
  in
• 9:40
  that
• 9:40
  industry
• 9:40
  as
• 9:40
  well.
• 9:41
  So
• 9:41
  I
• 9:41
  had
• 9:42
  a
• 9:42
  really
• 9:42
  good
• 9:42
  start
• 9:42
  to
• 9:42
  my
• 9:43
  career
• 9:43
  and
• 9:43
  it
• 9:44
  gave
• 9:44
  me
• 9:44
  a
• 9:44
  lot,
• 9:44
  almost
• 9:45
  like
• 9:45
  a
• 9:45
  toolkit,
• 9:46
  like
• 9:46
  when
• 9:46
  it
• 9:47
  came
• 9:47
  to
• 9:47
  continuous
• 9:47
  improvement
• 9:48
  about
• 9:48
  business
• 9:48
  efficiency.
• 9:49
  And
• 9:50
  it
• 9:50
  gave
• 9:50
  me
• 9:50
  a
• 9:50
  real
• 9:50
  drive
• 9:51
  when
• 9:51
  it
• 9:51
  came
• 9:52
  to
• 9:52
  business
• 9:52
  operations.
• 9:53
  So
• 9:53
  when
• 9:53
  you
• 9:54
  take
• 9:54
  on
• 9:54
  a
• 9:54
  really
• 9:55
  rundown
• 9:55
  derelict
• 9:56
  farm,
• 9:57
  it
• 9:57
  was
• 9:57
  quite
• 9:57
  interesting
• 9:58
  because
• 9:58
  a
• 9:58
  lot
• 9:58
  of
• 9:58
  frustrations
• 9:59
  with
• 9:59
  how
• 9:59
  inefficient
• 10:00
  the
• 10:00
  place
• 10:00
  was.
• 10:01
  But
• 10:02
  then
• 10:02
  you
• 10:03
  started
• 10:03
  to
• 10:03
  kind
• 10:03
  of
• 10:03
  piece
• 10:04
  the
• 10:04
  bits
• 10:04
  together
• 10:04
  and
• 10:04
  say,
• 10:05
  well,
• 10:05
  I
• 10:05
  know
• 10:05
  how
• 10:05
  I
• 10:05
  want
• 10:05
  it
• 10:06
  to
• 10:06
  be.
• 10:06
  And
• 10:06
  I
• 10:06
  suppose
• 10:06
  that's
• 10:07
  where
• 10:07
  we
• 10:08
  started
• 10:08
  working
• 10:08
  towards.
• 10:09
  And
• 10:09
  you
• 10:09
  had
• 10:10
  to
• 10:10
  apply
• 10:11
  that
• 10:11
  business
• 10:11
  experience,
• 10:12
  that
• 10:12
  business
• 10:13
  head
• 10:13
  to
• 10:13
  it.
• 10:14
  Yeah,
• 10:14
  oh,
• 10:14
  definitely.
• 10:15
  I
• 10:15
  was
• 10:16
  very
• 10:16
  figures
• 10:16
  focused
• 10:17
  and
• 10:17
  after
• 10:17
  our
• 10:18
  first
• 10:18
  year
• 10:18
  we
• 10:18
  sat
• 10:18
  down
• 10:18
  and
• 10:19
  looked
• 10:19
  at
• 10:19
  the
• 10:19
  figures
• 10:19
  of
• 10:20
  setting
• 10:20
  up
• 10:20
  a
• 10:21
  beef
• 10:21
  and
• 10:21
  sheep
• 10:21
  enterprise
• 10:23
  and
• 10:23
  we
• 10:23
  had
• 10:23
  spent
• 10:23
  all
• 10:23
  our
• 10:24
  savings
• 10:24
  that
• 10:24
  was
• 10:24
  left,
• 10:25
  you
• 10:25
  know,
• 10:26
  trying
• 10:26
  to
• 10:26
  get
• 10:26
  this
• 10:26
  hair
• 10:26
  going
• 10:27
  and
• 10:28
  if
• 10:28
  you
• 10:28
  looked
• 10:28
  at
• 10:29
  it
• 10:29
  on
• 10:29
  paper
• 10:29
  you
• 10:29
  wouldn't
• 10:30
  do
• 10:30
  it.
• 10:30
  But
• 10:31
  I
• 10:31
  was
• 10:31
  actually
• 10:31
  the
• 10:31
  happiest
• 10:32
  I've
• 10:32
  probably
• 10:32
  been
• 10:33
  because
• 10:33
  I
• 10:33
  was
• 10:33
  outside
• 10:34
  every
• 10:34
  day
• 10:35
  with
• 10:35
  livestock,
• 10:36
  I
• 10:36
  was
• 10:36
  working
• 10:36
  with
• 10:37
  my
• 10:37
  husband,
• 10:37
  we
• 10:37
  were
• 10:37
  getting
• 10:38
  more
• 10:38
  time
• 10:38
  together,
• 10:39
  I
• 10:39
  wasn't
• 10:39
  in
• 10:39
  factories
• 10:40
  and
• 10:40
  had
• 10:41
  my
• 10:41
  family
• 10:41
  round
• 10:41
  about
• 10:41
  me
• 10:42
  and
• 10:42
  I
• 10:42
  thought,
• 10:42
  right,
• 10:42
  this
• 10:42
  isn't
• 10:43
  financially
• 10:43
  viable
• 10:44
  but
• 10:44
  I'm
• 10:45
  pretty
• 10:45
  happy.
• 10:45
  We
• 10:45
  just
• 10:46
  need
• 10:46
  to
• 10:46
  find
• 10:46
  a
• 10:46
  way
• 10:47
  to
• 10:47
  make
• 10:47
  it
• 10:47
  work
• 10:48
  a
• 10:48
  bit
• 10:48
  better.
• 10:49
  And
• 10:49
  how
• 10:49
  did
• 10:49
  that
• 10:49
  plan
• 10:50
  come
• 10:50
  together
• 10:50
  to
• 10:50
  make
• 10:51
  it
• 10:51
  financially
• 10:51
  viable?
• 10:52
  And
• 10:52
  just
• 10:52
  tell
• 10:52
  us
• 10:53
  at
• 10:53
  least
• 10:53
  if
• 10:53
  you
• 10:53
  can,
• 10:54
  what
• 10:54
  you
• 10:54
  do
• 10:54
  now.
• 10:55
  Aye,
• 10:55
  so
• 10:56
  we
• 10:56
  knew
• 10:56
  we
• 10:56
  had
• 10:57
  to
• 10:57
  diversify
• 10:57
  but
• 10:58
  we
• 10:58
  had
• 10:58
  no
• 10:58
  money
• 10:58
  to
• 10:58
  get
• 10:59
  started.
• 11:00
  Basically
• 11:00
  I
• 11:00
  came
• 11:01
  up
• 11:01
  with
• 11:01
  this
• 11:01
  big
• 11:01
  list
• 11:01
  of,
• 11:01
  right,
• 11:02
  we
• 11:02
  could
• 11:02
  do
• 11:02
  this.
• 11:03
  And
• 11:04
  aye,
• 11:05
  Stephen
• 11:05
  was
• 11:05
  quite
• 11:05
  shocked
• 11:06
  with
• 11:06
  the
• 11:06
  list
• 11:06
  that
• 11:06
  I
• 11:06
  come
• 11:06
  up
• 11:07
  with,
• 11:07
  but
• 11:07
  the
• 11:07
  one
• 11:07
  that
• 11:07
  was
• 11:08
  least
• 11:08
  offensive
• 11:08
  to
• 11:09
  him
• 11:09
  was
• 11:09
  a
• 11:09
  distillery.
• 11:10
  We'd
• 11:11
  just
• 11:11
  get
• 11:11
  into
• 11:11
  our
• 11:11
  gin
• 11:11
  at
• 11:11
  the
• 11:12
  time,
• 11:12
  it'd
• 11:12
  be
• 11:13
  nine
• 11:13
  years.
• 11:14
  Aye,
• 11:14
  about
• 11:14
  nine
• 11:14
  years
• 11:14
  ago,
• 11:16
  we
• 11:16
  were
• 11:16
  just
• 11:16
  getting
• 11:16
  into
• 11:16
  our
• 11:16
  gym
• 11:17
  and
• 11:17
  I
• 11:17
  said,
• 11:18
  you
• 11:18
  know,
• 11:18
  I
• 11:18
  really
• 11:18
  fancy
• 11:18
  making
• 11:19
  that,
• 11:19
  I
• 11:19
  think
• 11:19
  I
• 11:19
  could
• 11:20
  do
• 11:20
  it.
• 11:20
  And
• 11:20
  I
• 11:21
  looked
• 11:21
  into
• 11:21
  the
• 11:21
  process
• 11:22
  and
• 11:22
  what
• 11:22
  was
• 11:23
  involved
• 11:24
  and
• 11:24
  I
• 11:24
  was
• 11:24
  quite
• 11:25
  shocked
• 11:25
  because
• 11:25
  he
• 11:25
  was
• 11:26
  obviously
• 11:26
  he's
• 11:26
  a
• 11:27
  self
• 11:27
  employed
• 11:27
  fencer
• 11:28
  and
• 11:28
  I
• 11:28
  thought
• 11:29
  he
• 11:29
  wouldn't
• 11:29
  want
• 11:29
  me
• 11:30
  going
• 11:30
  self
• 11:30
  employed
• 11:30
  as
• 11:31
  well,
• 11:31
  it
• 11:31
  was
• 11:31
  too
• 11:31
  risky.
• 11:31
  Both
• 11:32
  ae
• 11:32
  us
• 11:32
  being
• 11:32
  self
• 11:32
  Employed.
• 11:33
  And
• 11:34
  when
• 11:34
  I
• 11:34
  spoke
• 11:34
  to
• 11:34
  him
• 11:34
  about
• 11:35
  the
• 11:35
  gin,
• 11:35
  he
• 11:35
  says,
• 11:35
  "your
• 11:36
  eyes
• 11:36
  are
• 11:36
  lighting
• 11:37
  up,
• 11:37
  you're
• 11:37
  so
• 11:37
  enthusiastic
• 11:38
  about
• 11:38
  it,
• 11:38
  get
• 11:39
  on
• 11:39
  and
• 11:39
  do
• 11:39
  it".
• 11:40
  I
• 11:40
  said,
• 11:40
  oh,
• 11:41
  I
• 11:41
  didn't
• 11:41
  expect
• 11:41
  that
• 11:42
  to
• 11:42
  come
• 11:42
  to
• 11:42
  him.
• 11:42
  And
• 11:43
  I
• 11:44
  was
• 11:44
  quite
• 11:44
  shocked,
• 11:44
  actually.
• 11:45
  So
• 11:46
  I
• 11:46
  had
• 11:46
  his
• 11:47
  backing.
• 11:47
  And
• 11:47
  the
• 11:47
  more
• 11:48
  I
• 11:48
  spoke
• 11:48
  about
• 11:48
  it
• 11:48
  to
• 11:49
  friends
• 11:49
  and
• 11:50
  family,
• 11:50
  they
• 11:51
  could
• 11:51
  see
• 11:51
  I
• 11:51
  was
• 11:51
  really
• 11:51
  enthusiastic.
• 11:53
  So
• 11:53
  why
• 11:53
  not,
• 11:53
  you
• 11:54
  know,
• 11:54
  if,
• 11:55
  you
• 11:55
  know,
• 11:55
  it's
• 11:55
  just
• 11:55
  like
• 11:56
  cooking,
• 11:56
  we
• 11:56
  could
• 11:56
  give
• 11:56
  it
• 11:56
  a
• 11:57
  go
• 11:57
  and
• 11:57
  make
• 11:57
  our
• 11:57
  own.
• 11:57
  So...
• 11:58
  And
• 11:58
  where
• 11:58
  are
• 11:58
  you?
• 11:59
  Where
• 12:00
  are
• 12:00
  you
• 12:00
  on
• 12:00
  that,
• 12:01
  that
• 12:01
  sort
• 12:02
  of
• 12:02
  business
• 12:02
  road?
• 12:03
  How
• 12:03
  do
• 12:03
  you
• 12:04
  feel
• 12:04
  that's
• 12:04
  gone?
• 12:04
  And,
• 12:05
  you
• 12:05
  know,
• 12:05
  is
• 12:06
  everything
• 12:06
  working
• 12:06
  as
• 12:06
  you
• 12:07
  want
• 12:07
  it
• 12:07
  to
• 12:07
  be
• 12:07
  working?
• 12:08
  Again,
• 12:08
  we
• 12:08
  started
• 12:09
  making
• 12:09
  gin
• 12:09
  because
• 12:10
  we
• 12:10
  really
• 12:10
  liked
• 12:10
  it.
• 12:11
  We
• 12:11
  thought,
• 12:11
  right,
• 12:11
  we'll
• 12:11
  make
• 12:12
  a
• 12:12
  gin
• 12:12
  that
• 12:12
  goes
• 12:12
  with
• 12:12
  steak
• 12:13
  and
• 12:13
  then
• 12:13
  when
• 12:13
  our
• 12:13
  beef's
• 12:14
  ready,
• 12:14
  you
• 12:14
  know,
• 12:14
  we'll
• 12:14
  do
• 12:15
  a
• 12:15
  really
• 12:15
  nice
• 12:15
  food
• 12:15
  pairing.
• 12:16
  That's
• 12:16
  great.
• 12:17
  And
• 12:17
  what
• 12:17
  I
• 12:17
  didn't
• 12:17
  realise
• 12:18
  was
• 12:18
  that
• 12:18
  we
• 12:19
  made
• 12:19
  100
• 12:19
  bottles.
• 12:20
  And
• 12:20
  I
• 12:20
  just
• 12:20
  set
• 12:20
  up
• 12:21
  a
• 12:21
  Facebook
• 12:21
  page
• 12:21
  and
• 12:22
  said,
• 12:22
  this
• 12:22
  is
• 12:22
  what
• 12:22
  we're
• 12:22
  doing
• 12:23
  now.
• 12:23
  We
• 12:23
  still
• 12:24
  had
• 12:24
  a
• 12:24
  tin
• 12:24
  roof.
• 12:24
  It's
• 12:25
  a,
• 12:25
  it's
• 12:25
  a
• 12:25
  four
• 12:25
  metre
• 12:26
  by
• 12:26
  four
• 12:26
  metre.
• 12:26
  We're
• 12:26
  in
• 12:27
  it
• 12:27
  just
• 12:27
  now.
• 12:27
  It's
• 12:27
  a
• 12:27
  four
• 12:27
  metre
• 12:28
  building.
• 12:28
  It's
• 12:29
  one
• 12:29
  of
• 12:29
  Scotland's
• 12:29
  smallest
• 12:30
  commercial
• 12:30
  distilleries.
• 12:31
  We
• 12:32
  had
• 12:32
  leaks
• 12:32
  in
• 12:32
  the
• 12:32
  roof
• 12:32
  and
• 12:32
  everything.
• 12:33
  The
• 12:33
  building
• 12:33
  was
• 12:33
  patched
• 12:34
  together
• 12:34
  to
• 12:34
  get
• 12:34
  us
• 12:35
  going
• 12:35
  and
• 12:36
  advertised
• 12:36
  these
• 12:37
  100
• 12:37
  bottles
• 12:37
  on
• 12:37
  Facebook
• 12:38
  that
• 12:38
  sold
• 12:38
  in
• 12:38
  two
• 12:39
  days.
• 12:40
  And
• 12:40
  people
• 12:40
  were
• 12:40
  coming
• 12:41
  up
• 12:41
  to
• 12:41
  the
• 12:41
  farm,
• 12:41
  you
• 12:42
  know,
• 12:42
  the
• 12:42
  sheds
• 12:42
  are
• 12:42
  falling
• 12:43
  down,
• 12:43
  roundabout
• 12:43
  us.
• 12:43
  We
• 12:43
  didn't
• 12:44
  have
• 12:44
  roofs
• 12:44
  in
• 12:44
  half
• 12:44
  of
• 12:44
  the
• 12:45
  buildings
• 12:45
  and
• 12:46
  people
• 12:46
  were
• 12:46
  traipsing
• 12:46
  through
• 12:47
  a
• 12:47
  mucky
• 12:47
  yard
• 12:48
  to
• 12:48
  come
• 12:48
  down
• 12:49
  into
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  end
• 12:49
  byre
• 12:50
  where
• 12:50
  we'd
• 12:50
  set
• 12:51
  this
• 12:51
  distillery
• 12:51
  up
• 12:52
  and
• 12:52
  buy
• 12:53
  our
• 12:53
  gin.
• 12:53
  And
• 12:54
  I
• 12:54
  was
• 12:54
  like,
• 12:54
  wow,
• 12:55
  that's
• 12:55
  amazing.
• 12:56
  I
• 12:56
  didn't
• 12:56
  see
• 12:57
  that
• 12:57
  coming.
• 12:57
  But
• 12:58
  when
• 12:58
  I
• 12:58
  seen
• 12:58
  the
• 12:58
  demand
• 12:59
  for
• 12:59
  it,
• 12:59
  I
• 12:59
  thought,
• 12:59
  geez,
• 12:59
  we're
• 13:00
  setting
• 13:00
  a
• 13:00
  massive
• 13:00
  opportunity
• 13:01
  here.
• 13:01
  And
• 13:02
  I'm
• 13:02
  thinking
• 13:02
  about
• 13:02
  the
• 13:03
  market,
• 13:03
  the
• 13:03
  gin
• 13:04
  market.
• 13:04
  I
• 13:04
  mean,
• 13:04
  there's
• 13:05
  something
• 13:06
  like
• 13:07
  more
• 13:07
  than
• 13:07
  200
• 13:08
  gins
• 13:08
  are
• 13:08
  now
• 13:09
  distilled
• 13:09
  or,
• 13:10
  you
• 13:10
  know,
• 13:10
  now
• 13:10
  come
• 13:11
  out
• 13:11
  of
• 13:11
  Scotland.
• 13:11
  And
• 13:11
  I'm
• 13:12
  just
• 13:12
  wondering
• 13:12
  about
• 13:13
  the
• 13:13
  saturation
• 13:14
  of
• 13:14
  that
• 13:14
  market
• 13:14
  and,
• 13:15
  you
• 13:15
  know,
• 13:15
  where
• 13:15
  you
• 13:15
  fit
• 13:16
  in
• 13:16
  and
• 13:16
  I
• 13:16
  suppose
• 13:17
  how
• 13:17
  you
• 13:17
  have
• 13:17
  to
• 13:17
  keep
• 13:18
  your,
• 13:18
  your
• 13:18
  elbow
• 13:19
  sharpened
• 13:19
  and
• 13:19
  your,
• 13:20
  your
• 13:20
  pencil
• 13:20
  sharpened
• 13:21
  to
• 13:21
  make
• 13:21
  sure
• 13:21
  that
• 13:21
  you,
• 13:22
  you
• 13:22
  remain
• 13:23
  in
• 13:23
  front
• 13:24
  and
• 13:24
  centre.
• 13:25
  Aye,
• 13:25
  it's
• 13:26
  one
• 13:26
  of
• 13:26
  they
• 13:26
  ones
• 13:27
  like
• 13:27
  we
• 13:27
  were
• 13:27
  approached
• 13:27
  by
• 13:28
  retailers
• 13:28
  to
• 13:29
  go
• 13:29
  and
• 13:29
  do
• 13:29
  SALSA
• 13:30
  accreditation
• 13:30
  and,
• 13:31
  you
• 13:31
  know,
• 13:32
  supply
• 13:32
  into
• 13:32
  retail.
• 13:33
  And
• 13:33
  I
• 13:33
  started
• 13:33
  taking
• 13:34
  down
• 13:34
  that
• 13:34
  road
• 13:34
  and
• 13:34
  I
• 13:34
  was
• 13:34
  really
• 13:35
  ambitious
• 13:35
  with
• 13:35
  it
• 13:36
  and
• 13:36
  something
• 13:36
  stopped
• 13:37
  Me
• 13:37
  and
• 13:37
  I
• 13:37
  just
• 13:38
  thought,
• 13:38
  you
• 13:38
  know,
• 13:38
  I
• 13:38
  don't
• 13:39
  like
• 13:39
  paperwork,
• 13:40
  it's
• 13:40
  turn
• 13:41
  my
• 13:41
  dream
• 13:42
  job
• 13:42
  into
• 13:43
  something
• 13:43
  I
• 13:43
  don't
• 13:43
  like.
• 13:44
  And
• 13:44
  I
• 13:44
  was
• 13:45
  also
• 13:45
  devaluing
• 13:45
  my
• 13:46
  product
• 13:46
  and
• 13:46
  not
• 13:46
  making
• 13:46
  as
• 13:47
  much
• 13:47
  margin.
• 13:47
  I
• 13:47
  was
• 13:47
  basically
• 13:48
  giving
• 13:48
  it
• 13:48
  away
• 13:48
  to
• 13:49
  retail
• 13:49
  potentially.
• 13:50
  So
• 13:50
  I
• 13:50
  declined
• 13:50
  their
• 13:51
  offer.
• 13:51
  And
• 13:52
  it
• 13:52
  was
• 13:52
  at
• 13:52
  that
• 13:52
  point,
• 13:52
  probably
• 13:53
  seven
• 13:54
  years
• 13:54
  ago,
• 13:54
  I
• 13:54
  decided
• 13:55
  our
• 13:55
  business
• 13:55
  model
• 13:56
  is
• 13:56
  going
• 13:56
  to
• 13:56
  be
• 13:56
  direct
• 13:57
  to
• 13:57
  consumer
• 13:58
  because
• 13:58
  on
• 13:58
  the
• 13:59
  farm
• 13:59
  we
• 13:59
  need
• 13:59
  to
• 13:59
  engage
• 14:00
  with
• 14:00
  consumers,
• 14:01
  hear
• 14:01
  what
• 14:01
  they
• 14:01
  like,
• 14:01
  we
• 14:02
  need
• 14:02
  the
• 14:02
  feedback
• 14:02
  on
• 14:03
  our
• 14:03
  product.
• 14:04
  So
• 14:04
  for
• 14:04
  a
• 14:04
  business
• 14:04
  our
• 14:05
  size,
• 14:05
  it
• 14:05
  made
• 14:05
  sense
• 14:06
  for
• 14:06
  us
• 14:06
  to
• 14:06
  sell
• 14:06
  direct.
• 14:07
  So
• 14:08
  we
• 14:08
  set
• 14:08
  up
• 14:08
  a
• 14:08
  online
• 14:09
  gin
• 14:09
  shop
• 14:10
  so
• 14:10
  we
• 14:10
  could
• 14:10
  post
• 14:10
  around
• 14:11
  the
• 14:11
  uk.
• 14:11
  We
• 14:12
  do
• 14:12
  gin
• 14:12
  tastings
• 14:13
  on
• 14:13
  site
• 14:14
  and
• 14:14
  you
• 14:14
  know,
• 14:14
  the
• 14:15
  gin
• 14:15
  market,
• 14:16
  the
• 14:16
  whole
• 14:16
  distilling
• 14:17
  side
• 14:17
  of
• 14:17
  things
• 14:17
  isn't
• 14:18
  great
• 14:18
  just
• 14:18
  now
• 14:19
  in
• 14:19
  Scotland
• 14:19
  and
• 14:19
  there's
• 14:20
  been
• 14:20
  people
• 14:20
  getting
• 14:20
  out
• 14:20
  of
• 14:21
  it,
• 14:21
  but
• 14:22
  because
• 14:22
  it's
• 14:22
  just
• 14:22
  one
• 14:22
  side
• 14:23
  of
• 14:23
  our
• 14:23
  business,
• 14:24
  it
• 14:24
  complements
• 14:25
  everything
• 14:25
  else
• 14:25
  that
• 14:25
  we
• 14:25
  do,
• 14:26
  so
• 14:26
  we're
• 14:26
  not
• 14:27
  solely
• 14:27
  reliant
• 14:27
  on
• 14:28
  it.
• 14:28
  So,
• 14:28
  first
• 14:29
  generation
• 14:29
  farmer,
• 14:30
  a
• 14:31
  husband
• 14:31
  who
• 14:31
  works
• 14:31
  off
• 14:32
  farm,
• 14:32
  three
• 14:33
  daughters
• 14:34
  at
• 14:34
  that
• 14:34
  age
• 14:35
  where
• 14:35
  they're
• 14:35
  probably
• 14:35
  deciding
• 14:36
  what
• 14:36
  they're
• 14:36
  about
• 14:36
  to,
• 14:37
  you
• 14:37
  know,
• 14:37
  go
• 14:38
  to
• 14:38
  next,
• 14:39
  I
• 14:39
  don't
• 14:39
  think
• 14:39
  they
• 14:39
  could
• 14:39
  have
• 14:40
  a
• 14:40
  better
• 14:40
  role
• 14:40
  model.
• 14:40
  You've,
• 14:41
  you've,
• 14:41
  obviously,
• 14:41
  you're
• 14:42
  obviously
• 14:42
  leading
• 14:42
  the
• 14:42
  way
• 14:42
  and
• 14:42
  I
• 14:43
  just
• 14:43
  wonder
• 14:43
  how
• 14:43
  that,
• 14:44
  that
• 14:44
  you
• 14:45
  being
• 14:45
  first
• 14:45
  generation
• 14:46
  and,
• 14:46
  and
• 14:46
  what
• 14:47
  happens
• 14:47
  next
• 14:48
  and
• 14:48
  how
• 14:48
  you
• 14:48
  see
• 14:48
  it
• 14:49
  going
• 14:49
  forward.
• 14:51
  Aye,
• 14:51
  I
• 14:52
  keep
• 14:52
  saying
• 14:52
  my
• 14:52
  husband,
• 14:52
  I
• 14:53
  keep
• 14:53
  saying
• 14:53
  Stephen,
• 14:53
  I
• 14:54
  go,
• 14:54
  this
• 14:54
  is
• 14:54
  our
• 14:55
  dream,
• 14:55
  it's
• 14:55
  what
• 14:56
  we
• 14:56
  want
• 14:56
  to
• 14:56
  do.
• 14:56
  And
• 14:57
  I'm
• 14:57
  very
• 14:57
  mindful
• 14:57
  about
• 14:58
  that
• 14:58
  because
• 14:59
  I
• 14:59
  don't
• 14:59
  want
• 14:59
  to
• 14:59
  set
• 14:59
  any
• 15:00
  expectation
• 15:00
  that,
• 15:00
  you
• 15:01
  know,
• 15:01
  this
• 15:01
  is
• 15:01
  what
• 15:01
  the
• 15:01
  kids
• 15:01
  must
• 15:02
  do
• 15:02
  because
• 15:02
  we've
• 15:02
  had
• 15:03
  the
• 15:03
  freedom
• 15:04
  to
• 15:04
  come
• 15:04
  into
• 15:04
  the
• 15:04
  place
• 15:05
  and
• 15:06
  make
• 15:06
  it
• 15:06
  our
• 15:06
  own
• 15:07
  so
• 15:07
  they,
• 15:08
  they
• 15:08
  can
• 15:08
  set
• 15:08
  out
• 15:08
  their
• 15:09
  own
• 15:09
  path
• 15:09
  as
• 15:10
  well.
• 15:10
  I,
• 15:11
  you
• 15:11
  know,
• 15:11
  I
• 15:11
  remember
• 15:12
  I
• 15:12
  was
• 15:12
  at
• 15:12
  Auchencruive
• 15:13
  (SRUC
• 15:13
  campus)
• 15:13
  an
• 15:14
  there
• 15:14
  was
• 15:14
  maybe
• 15:14
  20s
• 15:15
  in
• 15:15
  the
• 15:15
  class,
• 15:16
  me
• 15:16
  and
• 15:16
  another
• 15:16
  girl
• 15:17
  who's
• 15:18
  unfortunately
• 15:18
  landed
• 15:19
  with
• 15:19
  me
• 15:19
  for
• 15:19
  the
• 15:19
  rest
• 15:19
  of
• 15:20
  her
• 15:20
  life.
• 15:20
  I
• 15:20
  think
• 15:20
  we're
• 15:20
  still
• 15:21
  best
• 15:21
  friends
• 15:21
  now.
• 15:21
  So
• 15:22
  we've
• 15:22
  been
• 15:22
  all
• 15:22
  through
• 15:22
  college
• 15:23
  and
• 15:23
  doing
• 15:23
  life
• 15:24
  together
• 15:24
  and
• 15:24
  she's
• 15:25
  some
• 15:25
  girl,
• 15:25
  but
• 15:26
  anyway
• 15:26
  there's
• 15:27
  only
• 15:27
  me
• 15:27
  and
• 15:27
  her
• 15:27
  and
• 15:28
  the
• 15:28
  rest
• 15:28
  were
• 15:28
  guys
• 15:29
  and
• 15:29
  everybody
• 15:29
  in
• 15:29
  that
• 15:30
  class
• 15:30
  had
• 15:30
  a
• 15:30
  farm.
• 15:31
  And
• 15:31
  I
• 15:32
  thought,
• 15:32
  geez,
• 15:32
  they
• 15:32
  are
• 15:32
  so
• 15:33
  lucky,
• 15:33
  you
• 15:33
  know,
• 15:33
  studying
• 15:34
  agriculture
• 15:34
  together.
• 15:34
  I
• 15:35
  thought
• 15:35
  these
• 15:35
  guys
• 15:35
  are
• 15:35
  so
• 15:35
  lucky,
• 15:36
  everybody's
• 15:37
  going
• 15:37
  to
• 15:37
  go
• 15:37
  home
• 15:37
  and
• 15:37
  work.
• 15:38
  But
• 15:38
  looking
• 15:39
  back,
• 15:39
  it
• 15:40
  was
• 15:40
  actually
• 15:40
  a
• 15:40
  blessing
• 15:40
  that
• 15:40
  I
• 15:41
  didn't
• 15:41
  have
• 15:41
  a
• 15:41
  farm
• 15:42
  because
• 15:42
  I
• 15:43
  didn't
• 15:43
  have
• 15:43
  that
• 15:43
  expectation
• 15:44
  to
• 15:44
  go
• 15:44
  back
• 15:45
  and
• 15:45
  do
• 15:46
  what
• 15:46
  the
• 15:47
  generations
• 15:47
  before
• 15:47
  me
• 15:48
  did.
• 15:48
  That's
• 15:49
  how
• 15:49
  we'll
• 15:49
  probably
• 15:49
  approach
• 15:50
  things
• 15:50
  completely
• 15:50
  different.
• 15:51
  We
• 15:52
  can't
• 15:52
  just
• 15:52
  farm.
• 15:52
  We
• 15:53
  need
• 15:53
  to
• 15:53
  be
• 15:54
  slightly
• 15:54
  different
• 15:55
  and
• 15:55
  more
• 15:55
  engaged
• 15:55
  with
• 15:56
  our
• 15:56
  consumers.
• 15:57
  There's
• 15:57
  a
• 15:57
  really
• 15:57
  strong
• 15:58
  theme
• 15:58
  when
• 15:58
  we
• 15:58
  have
• 15:58
  conversations
• 15:59
  on
• 15:59
  Farm
• 15:59
  Strong
• 16:00
  just
• 16:00
  about
• 16:00
  that,
• 16:01
  that
• 16:02
  generational
• 16:03
  issue,
• 16:04
  and
• 16:04
  succession
• 16:05
  issue
• 16:05
  and
• 16:05
  what
• 16:06
  has
• 16:06
  gone
• 16:06
  before
• 16:06
  and
• 16:07
  what's
• 16:07
  going
• 16:07
  to
• 16:07
  come
• 16:07
  down
• 16:07
  the
• 16:08
  road
• 16:08
  as
• 16:08
  well
• 16:08
  for
• 16:08
  many
• 16:09
  people.
• 16:11
  Aye,
• 16:11
  so
• 16:11
  for
• 16:11
  our
• 16:11
  girls,
• 16:12
  they
• 16:13
  can
• 16:13
  go
• 16:13
  and
• 16:13
  make
• 16:13
  their
• 16:13
  own
• 16:14
  paths
• 16:14
  and
• 16:14
  me
• 16:15
  and
• 16:15
  Stephen
• 16:15
  will
• 16:15
  work
• 16:16
  away
• 16:16
  quietly
• 16:16
  at
• 16:17
  the
• 16:17
  farm
• 16:17
  and
• 16:17
  just
• 16:17
  keep
• 16:18
  doing
• 16:18
  what
• 16:18
  we're
• 16:18
  doing
• 16:18
  and
• 16:19
  doing
• 16:19
  what
• 16:19
  we
• 16:19
  enjoy.
• 16:20
  And
• 16:20
  if
• 16:20
  at
• 16:20
  some
• 16:21
  point
• 16:21
  they
• 16:21
  want
• 16:21
  to
• 16:21
  be
• 16:21
  part
• 16:21
  of
• 16:22
  it,
• 16:22
  that's
• 16:22
  great.
• 16:22
  And
• 16:23
  if
• 16:23
  they
• 16:23
  don't,
• 16:24
  that's
• 16:24
  fine
• 16:24
  as
• 16:24
  well.
• 17:26
  And
• 17:26
  just
• 17:26
  thinking
• 17:27
  about
• 17:27
  the
• 17:28
  sort
• 17:28
  of,
• 17:28
  you

• 17:33
  much
• 17:33
  that's,
• 17:34
  you
• 17:34
  know,
• 17:35
  that's

  a
• 17:35
  focus
• 17:35
  of

  yours

  How

  do
• 17:37
  you

• 17:40
  "You're
• 17:40
  nae
• 17:41
  guid
• 17:41
  deid",
• 17:41
  is
• 17:41
  what
• 17:42
  I
• 17:42
  think.
• 17:42
  So
• 17:43
  I
• 17:43
  can
• 17:43
  say
• 17:43
  that
• 17:43
  to
• 17:44
  Steve.
• 17:44
  I
• 17:44
  says,
• 17:44
  you're
• 17:44
  going
• 17:44
  to
• 17:45
  work
• 17:45
  yourself
• 17:45
  into
• 17:45
  the
• 17:45
  ground.
• 17:46
  He's
• 17:46
  a
• 17:46
  workaholic.
• 17:47
  It's
• 17:47
  me
• 17:48
  that
• 17:48
  will
• 17:48
  take
• 17:48
  the
• 17:48
  step
• 17:48
  back
• 17:49
  and
• 17:49
  say,
• 17:49
  right,
• 17:49
  we're
• 17:49
  needing
• 17:49
  some
• 17:50
  time
• 17:50
  off.
• 17:50
  You
• 17:51
  know,
• 17:51
  if
• 17:51
  we're
• 17:51
  getting
• 17:51
  crabbit
• 17:51
  with
• 17:52
  each
• 17:52
  other,
• 17:52
  it's
• 17:52
  like,
• 17:52
  right,
• 17:53
  come
• 17:53
  on,
• 17:53
  let's.
• 17:54
  Time
• 17:54
  away
• 17:55
  for
• 17:55
  the
• 17:55
  farm
• 17:55
  is
• 17:55
  just
• 17:56
  as
• 17:56
  important
• 17:56
  as
• 17:56
  time
• 17:56
  on
• 17:57
  it.
• 17:58
  And
• 17:58
  always
• 17:58
  find
• 17:58
  if
• 17:58
  you
• 17:59
  take
• 17:59
  a
• 17:59
  wee
• 17:59
  break
• 17:59
  away,
• 18:00
  you
• 18:00
  come
• 18:00
  back
• 18:00
  fresh
• 18:01
  and
• 18:01
  ready
• 18:02
  for
• 18:02
  it
• 18:02
  again.
• 18:02
  So
• 18:03
  I
• 18:03
  do
• 18:03
  believe
• 18:03
  that
• 18:04
  for
• 18:05
  us,
• 18:05
  well
• 18:05
  being
• 18:05
  is
• 18:06
  about,
• 18:06
  you
• 18:06
  know,
• 18:07
  that
• 18:07
  family
• 18:07
  time
• 18:07
  away
• 18:08
  from
• 18:08
  the
• 18:08
  farm.
• 18:09
  Because
• 18:09
  I
• 18:09
  don't
• 18:09
  want
• 18:09
  the
• 18:09
  kids
• 18:10
  growing
• 18:10
  up
• 18:10
  thinking,
• 18:10
  oh,
• 18:11
  mum
• 18:11
  and
• 18:11
  dad
• 18:11
  just
• 18:11
  worked
• 18:11
  all
• 18:12
  the
• 18:12
  time.
• 18:12
  Yeah,
• 18:12
  I
• 18:12
  think,
• 18:13
  I
• 18:13
  think
• 18:13
  it's
• 18:13
  one
• 18:13
  of
• 18:13
  those
• 18:14
  things,
• 18:14
  isn't
• 18:14
  it,
• 18:14
  the
• 18:14
  guilt
• 18:15
  that
• 18:15
  we
• 18:15
  carry
• 18:15
  when
• 18:15
  you,
• 18:16
  when
• 18:16
  you
• 18:16
  work
• 18:17
  together
• 18:17
  and
• 18:18
  you
• 18:18
  just,
• 18:18
  it's
• 18:19
  all
• 18:19
  consuming.
• 18:19
  You
• 18:19
  spoke
• 18:20
  about
• 18:20
  that,
• 18:20
  all
• 18:20
  that
• 18:20
  consumption
• 18:21
  earlier
• 18:21
  on,
• 18:22
  just
• 18:22
  that
• 18:22
  you,
• 18:23
  you
• 18:23
  feel
• 18:23
  guilty
• 18:23
  when
• 18:24
  you're
• 18:24
  not
• 18:24
  working.
• 18:25
  Yeah,
• 18:26
  Aye,
• 18:26
  it's
• 18:27
  quite
• 18:27
  an
• 18:27
  odd
• 18:28
  mindset
• 18:28
  that
• 18:29
  I'm
• 18:29
  aware
• 18:30
  of
• 18:30
  it,
• 18:31
  but
• 18:31
  I
• 18:31
  think
• 18:31
  there's
• 18:32
  nothing
• 18:32
  better
• 18:32
  than
• 18:32
  coming
• 18:33
  back
• 18:33
  with
• 18:33
  a
• 18:33
  clear
• 18:33
  head
• 18:34
  and
• 18:35
  you're
• 18:35
  fresh
• 18:35
  again,
• 18:36
  you've
• 18:36
  your
• 18:36
  energy
• 18:37
  back,
• 18:38
  because
• 18:38
  you
• 18:38
  do
• 18:38
  need
• 18:38
  energy
• 18:39
  to
• 18:39
  keep
• 18:39
  all
• 18:39
  the
• 18:39
  plates
• 18:40
  spinning
• 18:40
  and
• 18:41
  to
• 18:41
  entertain
• 18:41
  guests
• 18:42
  and
• 18:43
  keep
• 18:43
  everybody
• 18:44
  happy,
• 18:44
  make
• 18:44
  sure
• 18:44
  they're
• 18:44
  having
• 18:45
  positive
• 18:45
  experiences
• 18:46
  at
• 18:46
  the
• 18:46
  farm.
• 18:46
  You
• 18:46
  cannae
• 18:47
  do
• 18:47
  that
• 18:47
  if
• 18:47
  you're
• 18:47
  empty.
• 18:48
  I've
• 18:49
  got
• 18:49
  a
• 18:49
  lot
• 18:49
  of
• 18:49
  support
• 18:49
  about
• 18:49
  me.
• 18:50
  I
• 18:50
  think
• 18:50
  that's
• 18:50
  what's
• 18:51
  quite
• 18:51
  nice
• 18:51
  is
• 18:52
  I've
• 18:52
  got
• 18:52
  a
• 18:52
  good
• 18:53
  circle
• 18:53
  of
• 18:53
  people
• 18:54
  that
• 18:54
  are
• 18:54
  very
• 18:54
  supportive
• 18:55
  and
• 18:55
  I
• 18:55
  don't
• 18:55
  think
• 18:57
  I'd
• 18:57
  be
• 18:57
  able
• 18:57
  to
• 18:57
  do
• 18:57
  what
• 18:57
  I
• 18:57
  do
• 18:58
  without
• 18:58
  them.
• 18:59
  So
• 18:59
  I
• 18:59
  think
• 18:59
  just
• 18:59
  being
• 19:00
  able
• 19:00
  to
• 19:00
  be
• 19:00
  open
• 19:00
  and
• 19:01
  honest
• 19:01
  and
• 19:01
  having
• 19:02
  people
• 19:02
  that
• 19:02
  will
• 19:02
  tell
• 19:02
  you
• 19:02
  if
• 19:03
  you've
• 19:03
  got
• 19:03
  an
• 19:03
  ugly
• 19:03
  baby
• 19:04
  is
• 19:04
  what
• 19:04
  you
• 19:04
  need.
• 19:05
  Especially
• 19:06
  when
• 19:06
  you're
• 19:06
  trying
• 19:06
  a
• 19:07
  lot
• 19:07
  of
• 19:07
  different
• 19:07
  things
• 19:07
  and
• 19:09
  it's
• 19:09
  good
• 19:09
  to
• 19:09
  have
• 19:10
  that
• 19:10
  honesty
• 19:10
  with
• 19:10
  a
• 19:11
  group
• 19:11
  of
• 19:11
  people
• 19:11
  as
• 19:11
  well.
• 19:11
  Do
• 19:12
  you
• 19:12
  keep
• 19:12
  good
• 19:12
  habits
• 19:13
  in
• 19:13
  terms
• 19:13
  of
• 19:14
  this
• 19:14
  is
• 19:14
  when
• 19:14
  I
• 19:14
  start
• 19:15
  work,
• 19:15
  this
• 19:15
  is
• 19:15
  when
• 19:15
  I
• 19:16
  finish
• 19:16
  and
• 19:16
  these
• 19:16
  are
• 19:16
  the
• 19:16
  things
• 19:17
  that
• 19:17
  I'll
• 19:17
  do
• 19:17
  every
• 19:17
  day
• 19:17
  to
• 19:18
  sort
• 19:18
  of
• 19:18
  clear
• 19:18
  my
• 19:18
  head
• 19:19
  and
• 19:19
  make
• 19:19
  myself
• 19:19
  feel
• 19:20
  better?
• 19:21
  No,
• 19:21
  I'm
• 19:21
  chaotic,
• 19:22
  absolutely
• 19:23
  chaotic
• 19:23
  and
• 19:24
  no
• 19:24
  day
• 19:24
  is
• 19:24
  the
• 19:25
  same.
• 19:25
  I
• 19:25
  do
• 19:26
  have
• 19:26
  a
• 19:26
  diary,
• 19:26
  I
• 19:26
  love
• 19:27
  my
• 19:27
  paper
• 19:27
  diary
• 19:28
  so
• 19:28
  I
• 19:28
  do
• 19:28
  have
• 19:28
  things
• 19:28
  like
• 19:29
  a
• 19:29
  big
• 19:29
  to
• 19:29
  do
• 19:29
  list
• 19:30
  but
• 19:30
  it
• 19:31
  is
• 19:31
  pretty
• 19:31
  chaotic
• 19:32
  and
• 19:32
  I'm
• 19:32
  okay
• 19:32
  with
• 19:32
  that
• 19:33
  because
• 19:33
  it's,
• 19:34
  I
• 19:35
  think
• 19:35
  I
• 19:35
  would
• 19:35
  get
• 19:35
  bored
• 19:35
  if
• 19:35
  it
• 19:36
  wasn't.
• 19:36
  As
• 19:37
  long
• 19:37
  as
• 19:37
  I've
• 19:37
  got
• 19:37
  the
• 19:37
  key
• 19:37
  things
• 19:38
  in
• 19:38
  the
• 19:38
  diary.
• 19:39
  I
• 19:39
  know
• 19:39
  where
• 19:39
  the
• 19:39
  kids
• 19:39
  need
• 19:40
  to
• 19:40
  be.
• 19:41
  I'll
• 19:41
  make
• 19:41
  things
• 19:41
  work
• 19:42
  round
• 19:42
  about
• 19:42
  it.
• 19:42
  From
• 19:43
  a
• 19:43
  well
• 19:43
  being
• 19:43
  point
• 19:44
  of
• 19:44
  view,
• 19:44
  aye
• 19:44
  it's
• 19:44
  maybe
• 19:44
  no
• 19:44
  great because
• 19:47
  you
• 19:47
  could
• 19:47
  be
• 19:47
  out
• 19:47
  bottling
• 19:47
  gin
• 19:48
  once
• 19:49
  the
• 19:49
  kids
• 19:49
  are
• 19:49
  in
• 19:49
  their
• 19:49
  bed
• 19:50
  but
• 19:51
  I'll
• 19:51
  settle
• 19:52
  better
• 19:52
  knowing
• 19:52
  that
• 19:52
  that
• 19:52
  job's
• 19:53
  done
• 19:54
  but
• 19:54
  I
• 19:54
  suppose
• 19:54
  that
• 19:55
  self
• 19:55
  employment
• 19:55
  isn't
• 19:56
  it.
• 19:56
  We
• 19:56
  kind
• 19:56
  of
• 19:56
  make
• 19:56
  it
• 19:57
  work
• 19:57
  round
• 19:57
  about
• 19:58
  everything
• 19:58
  else
• 19:59
  and
• 19:59
  it's
• 19:59
  good
• 19:59
  I've
• 19:59
  got
• 20:00
  the
• 20:00
  flexibility
• 20:00
  to
• 20:00
  do
• 20:01
  that.
• 20:01
  So
• 20:02
  aye
• 20:03
  chaos
• 20:03
  but
• 20:04
  fun
• 20:04
  chaos.
• 20:06
  Organised
• 20:06
  chaos
• 20:07
  it
• 20:07
  sounds
• 20:07
  like.
• 20:08
  And
• 20:08
  you
• 20:08
  spoke
• 20:08
  and
• 20:08
  you
• 20:09
  spoke
• 20:09
  about
• 20:09
  the
• 20:09
  girls
• 20:09
  having
• 20:10
  the
• 20:10
  freedom
• 20:10
  to
• 20:11
  go
• 20:11
  off
• 20:11
  and
• 20:11
  do
• 20:11
  their
• 20:11
  own
• 20:12
  thing
• 20:12
  and
• 20:12
  explore
• 20:13
  their
• 20:13
  own
• 20:13
  path.
• 20:14
  I'm
• 20:14
  just
• 20:14
  wondering
• 20:15
  if
• 20:15
  there's
• 20:15
  something
• 20:15
  that
• 20:15
  you
• 20:16
  would
• 20:16
  like
• 20:16
  to
• 20:16
  have
• 20:16
  passed
• 20:17
  on
• 20:17
  to
• 20:17
  them
• 20:17
  what
• 20:18
  that
• 20:18
  one
• 20:18
  thing
• 20:18
  would
• 20:19
  be.
• 20:19
  Just
• 20:20
  don't
• 20:20
  worry
• 20:20
  what
• 20:20
  other
• 20:21
  people
• 20:21
  think,
• 20:22
  just
• 20:23
  get
• 20:23
  on
• 20:23
  and
• 20:24
  do
• 20:24
  your
• 20:24
  thing.
• 20:25
  Someone's
• 20:25
  going
• 20:25
  to
• 20:25
  have
• 20:26
  a
• 20:26
  comment
• 20:26
  or
• 20:26
  an
• 20:26
  opinion
• 20:27
  about
• 20:27
  everything
• 20:27
  you
• 20:27
  do.
• 20:28
  It
• 20:28
  doesnae
• 20:29
  matter.
• 20:30
  If
• 20:30
  you
• 20:30
  wouldnae
• 20:30
  take
• 20:30
  advice
• 20:31
  from
• 20:31
  them,
• 20:31
  dinnae
• 20:32
  listen
• 20:32
  to
• 20:32
  it.
• 20:33
  You
• 20:33
  come
• 20:33
  up
• 20:33
  against
• 20:34
  that.
• 20:34
  I
• 20:34
  think
• 20:34
  particularly
• 20:35
  now
• 20:35
  with
• 20:35
  social
• 20:35
  media.
• 20:36
  There's
• 20:37
  so
• 20:37
  much
• 20:38
  comments
• 20:39
  and
• 20:39
  words
• 20:40
  thrown
• 20:40
  about
• 20:40
  these
• 20:40
  days
• 20:41
  especially
• 20:42
  for
• 20:42
  young
• 20:42
  teenage
• 20:43
  girls.
• 20:43
  It's
• 20:44
  quite
• 20:44
  a
• 20:44
  tricky
• 20:45
  place
• 20:45
  to
• 20:45
  grow
• 20:45
  up
• 20:46
  now.
• 20:46
  So
• 20:47
  yeah
• 20:47
  I
• 20:47
  would
• 20:47
  just
• 20:48
  say
• 20:48
  to
• 20:48
  them
• 20:48
  do
• 20:49
  your
• 20:49
  thing
• 20:49
  and
• 20:50
  be
• 20:50
  oblivious
• 20:51
  to
• 20:51
  the
• 20:51
  comments.
• 20:52
  And
• 20:52
  how's.
• 20:52
  How
• 20:52
  is
• 20:53
  mum's
• 20:53
  ambition?
• 20:54
  Is
• 20:54
  you
• 20:54
  still
• 20:55
  burning
• 20:55
  with
• 20:55
  ambition?
• 20:56
  What's
• 20:56
  next?
• 20:57
  Aye,
• 20:57
  I
• 20:57
  think
• 20:58
  we're
• 20:58
  just
• 20:58
  getting
• 20:58
  started.
• 20:59
  We're
• 20:59
  just
• 20:59
  10
• 20:59
  years
• 21:00
  in
• 21:00
  so
• 21:01
  we're
• 21:01
  definitely
• 21:01
  just
• 21:01
  getting
• 21:02
  started.
• 21:03
  I've
• 21:03
  got
• 21:03
  a
• 21:03
  real
• 21:03
  ambition
• 21:04
  to
• 21:04
  do
• 21:05
  really
• 21:05
  high
• 21:06
  quality
• 21:07
  food
• 21:07
  and
• 21:07
  drink
• 21:07
  on
• 21:07
  the
• 21:07
  farm.
• 21:08
  So
• 21:08
  we've
• 21:08
  covered
• 21:08
  the
• 21:08
  drink
• 21:09
  side
• 21:09
  of
• 21:09
  it.
• 21:10
  We're
• 21:10
  producing
• 21:10
  the
• 21:10
  food,
• 21:11
  but
• 21:11
  we're
• 21:11
  not
• 21:11
  cooking
• 21:12
  it
• 21:12
  here.
• 21:13
  So
• 21:13
  we've
• 21:13
  got
• 21:13
  an
• 21:14
  event
• 21:14
  space
• 21:14
  there
• 21:14
  that
• 21:15
  I'd
• 21:15
  like
• 21:15
  to
• 21:15
  put
• 21:15
  a
• 21:15
  kitchen
• 21:16
  into
• 21:16
  so
• 21:16
  that
• 21:16
  we
• 21:16
  can
• 21:17
  do
• 21:17
  like
• 21:17
  steak
• 21:17
  and
• 21:17
  gin
• 21:18
  nights
• 21:18
  and
• 21:19
  just
• 21:19
  pair
• 21:20
  all
• 21:20
  the
• 21:20
  enterprises
• 21:21
  up
• 21:21
  by
• 21:21
  offering
• 21:22
  that
• 21:22
  on
• 21:22
  the
• 21:22
  farm.
• 21:23
  But
• 21:23
  I
• 21:23
  think
• 21:24
  everything
• 21:24
  we
• 21:24
  do,
• 21:25
  Sarah,
• 21:25
  it's
• 21:25
  always
• 21:26
  very
• 21:26
  dip
• 21:27
  your
• 21:27
  toe
• 21:27
  and
• 21:27
  keep
• 21:28
  it
• 21:28
  low
• 21:28
  risk.
• 21:29
  Don't
• 21:30
  go
• 21:30
  and
• 21:30
  spend
• 21:30
  loads
• 21:31
  on
• 21:31
  it,
• 21:31
  you
• 21:31
  know,
• 21:31
  keep
• 21:32
  it
• 21:32
  quite
• 21:32
  rustic
• 21:32
  and
• 21:33
  authentic.
• 21:34
  But
• 21:34
  people
• 21:34
  like
• 21:34
  that,
• 21:35
  you
• 21:35
  know,
• 21:35
  it's
• 21:35
  not
• 21:35
  polished,
• 21:36
  but
• 21:36
  what
• 21:37
  we
• 21:37
  do
• 21:37
  offer
• 21:37
  is
• 21:37
  the
• 21:38
  quality
• 21:38
  food
• 21:38
  and
• 21:38
  drink
• 21:39
  and
• 21:39
  a
• 21:39
  bit
• 21:39
  of
• 21:40
  chat
• 21:40
  and
• 21:40
  a
• 21:40
  blether
• 21:41
  to
• 21:41
  go
• 21:41
  with
• 21:42
  it.
• 21:42
  And
• 21:42
  I
• 21:42
  think
• 21:42
  people
• 21:43
  quite
• 21:43
  like
• 21:44
  how
• 21:44
  it's
• 21:45
  authentic
• 21:45
  at
• 21:45
  that.
• 21:46
  And
• 21:46
  you
• 21:46
  obviously
• 21:46
  spoke
• 21:46
  about
• 21:47
  that
• 21:47
  partnership
• 21:47
  with
• 21:47
  Stephen
• 21:48
  and
• 21:48
  the
• 21:48
  fantastic,
• 21:49
  you
• 21:49
  know,
• 21:49
  girl
• 21:50
  gang
• 21:50
  that
• 21:50
  you
• 21:50
  have
• 21:51
  and
• 21:51
  you
• 21:51
  rely
• 21:52
  on.
• 21:52
  But
• 21:52
  I'm
• 21:52
  just
• 21:52
  wondering,
• 21:53
  you
• 21:53
  know,
• 21:54
  when
• 21:54
  you
• 21:54
  do
• 21:54
  need
• 21:54
  support,
• 21:55
  when
• 21:55
  you
• 21:56
  do
• 21:56
  need
• 21:56
  to
• 21:56
  chat
• 21:56
  things
• 21:57
  through,
• 21:57
  you
• 21:58
  know,
• 21:58
  where
• 21:58
  do
• 21:59
  you
• 21:59
  go
• 21:59
  to?
• 22:01
  Aye,
• 22:01
  I've
• 22:02
  got
• 22:02
  a
• 22:02
  really
• 22:02
  good
• 22:02
  friend
• 22:03
  and
• 22:03
  we
• 22:03
  speak
• 22:03
  every
• 22:04
  day
• 22:04
  and
• 22:05
  she's
• 22:05
  farming
• 22:05
  as
• 22:06
  well.
• 22:06
  And
• 22:07
  yeah,
• 22:08
  you
• 22:08
  know,
• 22:09
  you
• 22:09
  could
• 22:09
  be
• 22:09
  having
• 22:09
  a
• 22:09
  terrible
• 22:10
  day
• 22:10
  and
• 22:10
  you
• 22:11
  just,
• 22:11
  it
• 22:11
  just
• 22:11
  helps
• 22:12
  to
• 22:12
  share
• 22:12
  it.
• 22:13
  And
• 22:13
  we're
• 22:13
  at
• 22:14
  similar
• 22:14
  stages
• 22:14
  in
• 22:14
  our
• 22:14
  life,
• 22:15
  so
• 22:15
  it's,
• 22:15
  we
• 22:16
  learn
• 22:16
  from
• 22:16
  each
• 22:16
  other
• 22:17
  and
• 22:17
  we
• 22:17
  keep
• 22:17
  each
• 22:17
  other
• 22:18
  sane
• 22:18
  as
• 22:18
  well.
• 22:18
  And
• 22:19
  every
• 22:19
  so
• 22:19
  often
• 22:19
  we
• 22:20
  go
• 22:20
  and
• 22:20
  book
• 22:20
  something
• 22:20
  that
• 22:20
  we
• 22:21
  want
• 22:21
  to
• 22:21
  do
• 22:21
  to
• 22:21
  get
• 22:21
  off
• 22:22
  the
• 22:22
  farm.
• 22:22
  And
• 22:22
  they're
• 22:23
  the
• 22:23
  best
• 22:23
  days
• 22:23
  out
• 22:23
  ever.
• 22:24
  They
• 22:24
  always
• 22:24
  end
• 22:24
  up
• 22:25
  in
• 22:25
  a
• 22:25
  story.
• 22:25
  There's
• 22:25
  never
• 22:26
  a
• 22:26
  sober
• 22:26
  story
• 22:26
  that's
• 22:27
  been
• 22:27
  fun,
• 22:27
  is
• 22:27
  there?
• 22:28
  But
• 22:28
  we
• 22:28
  go
• 22:29
  out
• 22:29
  and
• 22:29
  have
• 22:30
  a
• 22:30
  good
• 22:30
  drink
• 22:30
  together,
• 22:31
  enjoy
• 22:31
  some
• 22:31
  good
• 22:31
  food
• 22:32
  and
• 22:32
  we
• 22:32
  put
• 22:32
  the
• 22:32
  world
• 22:33
  to
• 22:33
  rights
• 22:33
  and,
• 22:33
  you
• 22:33
  know,
• 22:34
  it
• 22:34
  just
• 22:34
  keeps
• 22:34
  you
• 22:34
  right
• 22:35
  as
• 22:35
  well.
• 22:36
  So.
• 22:36
  No,
• 22:36
  I'm
• 22:36
  very
• 22:36
  fortunate
• 22:37
  to
• 22:37
  have
• 22:37
  that.
• 22:38
  And
• 22:38
  you
• 22:39
  are
• 22:39
  an
• 22:39
  award
• 22:40
  winner
• 22:40
  as
• 22:40
  well.
• 22:41
  I
• 22:41
  know.
• 22:41
  Geez,
• 22:42
  that
• 22:42
  was
• 22:42
  a
• 22:42
  shock
• 22:43
  this
• 22:43
  year.
• 22:43
  Spill
• 22:44
  the
• 22:44
  beans.
• 22:46
  So
• 22:46
  we
• 22:46
  got
• 22:46
  word
• 22:47
  this
• 22:47
  year
• 22:48
  that
• 22:48
  we
• 22:48
  won
• 22:49
  the
• 22:49
  King's
• 22:49
  Award
• 22:50
  for
• 22:50
  Enterprise,
• 22:50
  for
• 22:51
  Sustainability.
• 22:52
  I'd
• 22:53
  heard
• 22:53
  about
• 22:53
  it
• 22:53
  a
• 22:53
  few
• 22:54
  years
• 22:54
  ago
• 22:54
  and
• 22:55
  I've
• 22:55
  applied
• 22:55
  for
• 22:55
  it
• 22:55
  before
• 22:56
  and
• 22:56
  never
• 22:56
  got
• 22:57
  anywhere.
• 22:57
  And
• 22:57
  I
• 22:57
  thought,
• 22:58
  I'll
• 22:58
  try
• 22:58
  again,
• 22:59
  I'll
• 22:59
  just
• 22:59
  apply
• 22:59
  again.
• 23:00
  Because
• 23:00
  you
• 23:00
  take
• 23:01
  the
• 23:01
  feedback
• 23:02
  and
• 23:02
  you
• 23:03
  just
• 23:03
  keep
• 23:03
  trying
• 23:03
  to
• 23:03
  progress.
• 23:04
  And
• 23:05
  I
• 23:05
  was
• 23:06
  quite.
• 23:06
  I
• 23:06
  was
• 23:06
  really
• 23:06
  shocked
• 23:07
  because
• 23:08
  we're
• 23:08
  not.
• 23:09
  We're
• 23:10
  a
• 23:10
  sustainable
• 23:10
  farm
• 23:10
  in
• 23:11
  terms
• 23:11
  of.
• 23:11
  Yes,
• 23:12
  we
• 23:12
  farm
• 23:12
  regeneratively,
• 23:13
  you
• 23:13
  know,
• 23:13
  you
• 23:13
  rotate
• 23:13
  our
• 23:14
  grazing.
• 23:15
  And
• 23:15
  we're.
• 23:16
  We're
• 23:16
  farming
• 23:16
  with
• 23:16
  nature,
• 23:17
  as
• 23:17
  most
• 23:18
  Scottish
• 23:18
  farmers
• 23:18
  are.
• 23:19
  It's
• 23:20
  the
• 23:20
  way
• 23:20
  farming
• 23:20
  is
• 23:20
  in
• 23:20
  Scotland.
• 23:21
  So
• 23:21
  I
• 23:22
  don't
• 23:22
  feel
• 23:22
  we're
• 23:22
  doing
• 23:22
  anything
• 23:22
  different
• 23:23
  in
• 23:23
  terms
• 23:23
  of
• 23:24
  how
• 23:24
  we
• 23:24
  farm
• 23:24
  our
• 23:25
  cattle
• 23:25
  and
• 23:25
  sheep.
• 23:26
  But
• 23:26
  the
• 23:26
  sustainable
• 23:27
  aspect
• 23:27
  of
• 23:28
  it,
• 23:28
  I
• 23:28
  think
• 23:28
  it's
• 23:29
  really
• 23:29
  nice
• 23:29
  to
• 23:29
  be
• 23:30
  recognized
• 23:30
  that
• 23:30
  we're
• 23:30
  a
• 23:30
  small
• 23:31
  farm
• 23:31
  and
• 23:32
  because
• 23:32
  we've
• 23:32
  got
• 23:32
  all
• 23:32
  these
• 23:32
  different
• 23:33
  enterprises
• 23:33
  on,
• 23:34
  we've
• 23:34
  spread
• 23:34
  our
• 23:34
  risk
• 23:35
  between
• 23:35
  all
• 23:35
  our
• 23:35
  different
• 23:36
  enterprises,
• 23:37
  which
• 23:37
  means
• 23:37
  that
• 23:37
  we
• 23:38
  can
• 23:38
  generate
• 23:38
  a
• 23:38
  profit
• 23:39
  from
• 23:39
  things
• 23:39
  like
• 23:40
  our
• 23:40
  distillery
• 23:40
  or
• 23:41
  a
• 23:41
  farm
• 23:41
  shop
• 23:41
  or
• 23:42
  accommodation
• 23:43
  and
• 23:43
  we
• 23:44
  reinvest
• 23:44
  that
• 23:45
  into
• 23:45
  the
• 23:45
  land.
• 23:46
  So
• 23:46
  we've
• 23:46
  created
• 23:47
  this
• 23:47
  business
• 23:47
  model
• 23:47
  that
• 23:48
  complements
• 23:48
  each
• 23:49
  other
• 23:49
  and
• 23:49
  we're
• 23:50
  improving
• 23:50
  the
• 23:50
  land
• 23:50
  all
• 23:51
  the
• 23:51
  time.
• 23:51
  So
• 23:51
  it's,
• 23:53
  it's
• 23:53
  maybe
• 23:53
  not
• 23:54
  sustainability
• 23:55
  as
• 23:55
  you
• 23:56
  would
• 23:56
  have
• 23:56
  expected,
• 23:57
  but
• 23:57
  for
• 23:57
  a
• 23:57
  small
• 23:57
  business,
• 23:58
  that
• 23:58
  model
• 23:58
  works
• 23:59
  for
• 23:59
  us.
• 23:59
  So
• 24:00
  it
• 24:00
  was
• 24:00
  a
• 24:00
  shock
• 24:01
  to
• 24:01
  win
• 24:01
  it,
• 24:02
  but
• 24:02
  a
• 24:02
  real
• 24:03
  huge
• 24:03
  honour
• 24:03
  as
• 24:04
  well.
• 24:04
  Of
• 24:04
  course,
• 24:05
  no
• 24:05
  matter
• 24:05
  how
• 24:06
  humble
• 24:07
  you
• 24:07
  are
• 24:07
  and
• 24:07
  you
• 24:08
  come
• 24:08
  across
• 24:08
  as
• 24:08
  extremely
• 24:09
  humble,
• 24:09
  it's
• 24:10
  always
• 24:10
  nice
• 24:10
  to
• 24:10
  get
• 24:10
  that
• 24:11
  recognition.
• 24:11
  "Okay,
• 24:12
  we're
• 24:12
  doing
• 24:12
  something
• 24:12
  right."
• 24:14
  Aye.
• 24:14
  No,
• 24:14
  we're
• 24:14
  doing
• 24:14
  fine.
• 24:16
  Aye.
• 24:16
  No,
• 24:16
  I'm
• 24:17
  really
• 24:17
  proud
• 24:17
  of
• 24:17
  it.
• 24:17
  I'm
• 24:17
  proud
• 24:18
  it's
• 24:19
  a
• 24:19
  family
• 24:19
  business
• 24:20
  and
• 24:20
  we've
• 24:20
  got
• 24:20
  a
• 24:20
  lot
• 24:20
  of
• 24:20
  people
• 24:21
  help
• 24:21
  us.
• 24:21
  So
• 24:21
  I'm
• 24:22
  fair
• 24:22
  chuffed
• 24:22
  about
• 24:22
  it.
• 24:23
  Well,
• 24:23
  you're
• 24:23
  gonna
• 24:23
  have
• 24:23
  to
• 24:23
  find
• 24:23
  somewhere
• 24:24
  on
• 24:24
  that
• 24:24
  old
• 24:24
  stone
• 24:25
  wall
• 24:25
  for
• 24:25
  a
• 24:26
  plaque.
• 24:28
  I
• 24:28
  need
• 24:28
  to
• 24:28
  wash
• 24:28
  my
• 24:29
  bunnet
• 24:29
  first.
• 24:29
  I
• 24:29
  keep
• 24:29
  saying
• 24:30
  I
• 24:30
  need
• 24:30
  to
• 24:30
  wash
• 24:30
  that
• 24:30
  bunnet
• 24:31
  if
• 24:31
  I'm
• 24:31
  going
• 24:31
  to
• 24:31
  be
• 24:31
  down
• 24:32
  to
• 24:32
  London
• 24:32
  for
• 24:32
  this
• 24:33
  award.
• 24:33
  Carry
• 24:34
  on.
• 24:35
  So
• 24:35
  Jenny,
• 24:36
  let's
• 24:36
  go
• 24:36
  back
• 24:36
  to
• 24:37
  those
• 24:37
  rapid
• 24:38
  questions.
• 24:38
  I
• 24:38
  don't
• 24:39
  know
• 24:39
  if
• 24:39
  you've
• 24:39
  had
• 24:39
  to
• 24:39
  think
• 24:39
  about
• 24:40
  it.
• 24:40
  Your
• 24:40
  pet
• 24:40
  peeve.
• 24:41
  You
• 24:41
  had
• 24:41
  any
• 24:42
  thoughts
• 24:42
  about
• 24:42
  it?
• 24:43
  I
• 24:43
  think
• 24:43
  the,
• 24:43
  the
• 24:44
  noise
• 24:44
  on
• 24:44
  social
• 24:44
  media,
• 24:45
  these
• 24:45
  noisy
• 24:45
  people,
• 24:46
  probably
• 24:47
  that
• 24:47
  would
• 24:47
  be
• 24:47
  one
• 24:47
  of
• 24:47
  my
• 24:47
  pet
• 24:47
  peeves.
• 24:48
  Whether
• 24:48
  it's
• 24:48
  a
• 24:49
  vegan
• 24:49
  brigade
• 24:50
  or
• 24:51
  whatever,
• 24:51
  all
• 24:52
  these
• 24:52
  crazy
• 24:52
  things
• 24:52
  that's
• 24:53
  going
• 24:53
  on
• 24:53
  in
• 24:53
  politics.
• 24:54
  Just
• 24:54
  how
• 24:54
  we,
• 24:55
  Aye,
• 24:56
  I
• 24:56
  like
• 24:56
  that
• 24:56
  -
• 24:57
  coming
• 24:57
  from
• 24:57
  a
• 24:57
  former
• 24:57
  vegetarian
• 24:58
  which
• 24:59
  we
• 24:59
  haven't
• 24:59
  even
• 24:59
  unpacked.
• 25:00
  Oh,
• 25:00
  I
• 25:00
  know,
• 25:01
  Geez.
• 25:01
  That
• 25:02
  was,
• 25:02
  it
• 25:02
  was
• 25:02
  a
• 25:02
  while
• 25:02
  ago.
• 25:02
  It's
• 25:03
  like
• 25:03
  a
• 25:03
  different
• 25:03
  life.
• 25:03
  But
• 25:04
  I,
• 25:04
  that's,
• 25:04
  that's,
• 25:04
  that's
• 25:05
  true.
• 25:05
  Was
• 25:05
  that
• 25:05
  during
• 25:06
  the
• 25:06
  time
• 25:06
  at
• 25:06
  the
• 25:06
  abattoir?
• 25:07
  Oh
• 25:08
  no.
• 25:09
  Funny
• 25:09
  how
• 25:09
  it
• 25:09
  all
• 25:09
  works
• 25:10
  out.
• 25:10
  It
• 25:10
  was
• 25:11
  a.
• 25:11
  I
• 25:11
  was
• 25:11
  11
• 25:12
  year
• 25:12
  old
• 25:12
  till
• 25:12
  I
• 25:12
  was
• 25:13
  about
• 25:13
  18,
• 25:13
  19.
• 25:14
  So
• 25:14
  I
• 25:14
  started
• 25:14
  Auchencruive
• 25:15
  as
• 25:16
  a
• 25:16
  vegetarian
• 25:17
  and
• 25:17
  I
• 25:17
  went
• 25:18
  there
• 25:18
  to
• 25:18
  study.
• 25:19
  I
• 25:19
  was
• 25:19
  obviously
• 25:20
  studying
• 25:20
  agriculture,
• 25:21
  but
• 25:21
  I
• 25:21
  was
• 25:21
  with
• 25:22
  a
• 25:22
  view
• 25:22
  to
• 25:22
  get
• 25:22
  animal
• 25:23
  welfare.
• 25:23
  And
• 25:24
  when
• 25:24
  I
• 25:24
  realised
• 25:25
  how
• 25:25
  animal
• 25:26
  welfare
• 25:26
  friendly
• 25:27
  farming
• 25:27
  is,
• 25:27
  I
• 25:28
  was
• 25:28
  like,
• 25:28
  I'm
• 25:28
  just
• 25:28
  vegetarian
• 25:29
  because
• 25:29
  I've
• 25:29
  done
• 25:29
  it
• 25:29
  for
• 25:30
  so
• 25:30
  long.
• 25:31
  So
• 25:31
  that
• 25:31
  was
• 25:31
  that,
• 25:31
  that
• 25:32
  was
• 25:32
  the
• 25:32
  end
• 25:32
  of
• 25:32
  that.
• 25:33
  I
• 25:33
  think
• 25:33
  there's
• 25:34
  nothing
• 25:34
  stronger
• 25:35
  than
• 25:35
  a
• 25:35
  former
• 25:36
  vegetarian
• 25:36
  managing
• 25:37
  an
• 25:37
  abattoir
• 25:38
  because
• 25:38
  it's
• 25:38
  such
• 25:39
  a
• 25:39
  respectful
• 25:39
  process,
• 25:40
  you
• 25:41
  know,
• 25:42
  like
• 25:43
  the
• 25:43
  welfare
• 25:43
  point
• 25:43
  of
• 25:44
  view.
• 25:44
  I
• 25:44
  was
• 25:44
  so
• 25:45
  comfort
• 25:46
  with
• 25:46
  how
• 25:47
  everything
• 25:47
  was
• 25:47
  handled
• 25:48
  and
• 25:49
  how
• 25:49
  the
• 25:49
  product's
• 25:50
  handled
• 25:50
  and
• 25:51
  I
• 25:51
  think
• 25:51
  it's
• 25:51
  a
• 25:51
  real
• 25:51
  good
• 25:51
  mindset
• 25:52
  to
• 25:52
  have,
• 25:53
  just
• 25:53
  treating
• 25:53
  everything
• 25:54
  with
• 25:54
  respect.
• 25:54
  So,
• 25:55
  aye,
• 25:56
  vegetarian.
• 25:56
  I
• 25:56
  couldn't
• 25:57
  be
• 25:57
  veggie
• 25:57
  now,
• 25:57
  I
• 25:57
  tell
• 25:57
  you.
• 25:58
  We
• 25:58
  produce
• 25:58
  too
• 25:59
  many
• 25:59
  good
• 25:59
  steaks.
• 26:00
  It's
• 26:00
  a
• 26:00
  lovely
• 26:01
  way
• 26:01
  to
• 26:01
  put
• 26:01
  it
• 26:01
  Jenny,
• 26:02
  the
• 26:02
  way
• 26:02
  you
• 26:02
  spoke
• 26:02
  about
• 26:03
  it
• 26:03
  there.
• 26:03
  I
• 26:03
  just
• 26:04
  want,
• 26:04
  I'm
• 26:04
  just
• 26:04
  interested
• 26:04
  to
• 26:04
  know
• 26:05
  what
• 26:05
  was
• 26:05
  the
• 26:05
  first
• 26:05
  thing
• 26:05
  you
• 26:06
  ate,
• 26:06
  what
• 26:06
  broke
• 26:07
  the
• 26:07
  vegetarianism?
• 26:10
  We
• 26:10
  used
• 26:10
  to
• 26:11
  get
• 26:11
  half
• 26:11
  day
• 26:12
  and
• 26:12
  a
• 26:12
  Wednesday
• 26:12
  when
• 26:12
  we
• 26:13
  were
• 26:13
  at
• 26:13
  Auchencruive.
• 26:13
  We'd
• 26:14
  go
• 26:14
  to
• 26:14
  Wetherspoons
• 26:15
  of
• 26:15
  all
• 26:15
  places
• 26:16
  and
• 26:16
  we
• 26:17
  sit
• 26:17
  there
• 26:17
  with
• 26:17
  pictures
• 26:18
  of
• 26:18
  whatever
• 26:19
  Cheeky
• 26:19
  Vimtos
• 26:20
  at
• 26:20
  the
• 26:20
  time
• 26:20
  and
• 26:20
  I
• 26:21
  says
• 26:21
  to
• 26:21
  them,
• 26:21
  I
• 26:21
  says
• 26:22
  go
• 26:22
  and
• 26:22
  order
• 26:22
  me
• 26:22
  a
• 26:22
  mixed
• 26:23
  grill,
• 26:23
  I
• 26:23
  want
• 26:23
  to
• 26:23
  try
• 26:24
  a
• 26:24
  wee
• 26:24
  bit
• 26:24
  of
• 26:24
  everything.
• 26:24
  So
• 26:25
  I
• 26:25
  had
• 26:25
  a
• 26:25
  mixed
• 26:26
  grill
• 26:26
  and
• 26:26
  Witherspoons.
• 26:27
  I
• 26:27
  was
• 26:27
  like,
• 26:27
  oh,
• 26:27
  I've
• 26:27
  been
• 26:28
  missing
• 26:28
  this.
• 26:28
  I
• 26:28
  remember
• 26:29
  eating
• 26:29
  the
• 26:29
  lamb
• 26:29
  chops
• 26:30
  going
• 26:30
  these
• 26:30
  are
• 26:30
  pretty
• 26:30
  good.
• 26:31
  What
• 26:31
  have
• 26:31
  I
• 26:31
  been
• 26:32
  missing?
• 26:33
  And
• 26:33
  you've
• 26:33
  never
• 26:33
  looked
• 26:34
  back?
• 26:34
  No,
• 26:34
  definitely
• 26:35
  not.
• 26:35
  Okay.
• 26:35
  And
• 26:36
  then
• 26:36
  well
• 26:37
  let's
• 26:37
  look
• 26:37
  forward
• 26:38
  and
• 26:38
  obviously
• 26:38
  it's
• 26:39
  sort
• 26:39
  of
• 26:39
  reflective
• 26:39
  as
• 26:39
  well.
• 26:40
  And
• 26:40
  you
• 26:40
  spoke
• 26:40
  about
• 26:41
  the
• 26:41
  family
• 26:41
  time
• 26:42
  and
• 26:42
  you
• 26:43
  remain
• 26:43
  ambitious
• 26:44
  which
• 26:44
  is
• 26:44
  fantastic.
• 26:45
  But
• 26:46
  is
• 26:47
  there
• 26:47
  something
• 26:47
  that
• 26:47
  you
• 26:47
  don't
• 26:48
  want
• 26:48
  to
• 26:48
  be
• 26:48
  doing
• 26:48
  in
• 26:48
  10
• 26:49
  years
• 26:49
  time?
• 26:50
  We've
• 26:50
  got
• 26:50
  two
• 26:51
  holiday
• 26:51
  lets
• 26:51
  just
• 26:51
  now
• 26:52
  and
• 26:52
  I
• 26:52
  suppose
• 26:53
  the
• 26:53
  farm
• 26:53
  accommodation
• 26:54
  is
• 26:54
  something
• 26:54
  that
• 26:55
  pays
• 26:55
  our
• 26:55
  debt
• 26:56
  but
• 26:56
  it's
• 26:57
  maybe
• 26:57
  not
• 26:57
  something
• 26:57
  I
• 26:57
  want
• 26:57
  to
• 26:58
  be
• 26:58
  doing
• 26:58
  forever
• 26:58
  because
• 26:59
  we
• 26:59
  got
• 26:59
  the
• 26:59
  farm
• 27:00
  for
• 27:00
  a
• 27:00
  quieter
• 27:01
  life
• 27:01
  and,
• 27:02
  and
• 27:02
  I've
• 27:02
  made
• 27:02
  it
• 27:02
  quite
• 27:02
  a
• 27:03
  busy
• 27:03
  place
• 27:03
  so
• 27:04
  it's
• 27:04
  not
• 27:04
  what
• 27:04
  we
• 27:04
  originally
• 27:05
  expected
• 27:05
  to
• 27:06
  do
• 27:06
  with
• 27:06
  the
• 27:06
  farm
• 27:07
  but
• 27:07
  right
• 27:07
  now
• 27:08
  it
• 27:08
  works
• 27:08
  because
• 27:09
  it's
• 27:09
  paying
• 27:09
  our
• 27:09
  debt
• 27:10
  and
• 27:10
  it's
• 27:10
  letting
• 27:11
  us
• 27:11
  live
• 27:11
  and
• 27:12
  plan
• 27:12
  for
• 27:12
  the
• 27:12
  future.
• 27:13
  So
• 27:13
  you
• 27:13
  know,
• 27:13
  while
• 27:14
  you've
• 27:14
  got
• 27:14
  that
• 27:14
  graft
• 27:15
  and
• 27:15
  you
• 27:15
  like
• 27:15
  for
• 27:16
  us,
• 27:16
  you
• 27:16
  know,
• 27:16
  we're
• 27:16
  young
• 27:16
  enough
• 27:17
  the
• 27:17
  now.
• 27:17
  know
• 27:18
  I
• 27:18
  still
• 27:18
  only
• 27:19
  feel
• 27:19
  20
• 27:19
  but
• 27:20
  still
• 27:20
  feel
• 27:21
  young
• 27:21
  enough
• 27:21
  to
• 27:21
  put
• 27:22
  a
• 27:22
  good
• 27:22
  shift
• 27:22
  in
• 27:23
  to
• 27:23
  get
• 27:23
  on
• 27:23
  our
• 27:24
  feet,
• 27:24
  but
• 27:24
  I
• 27:24
  think
• 27:24
  longer
• 27:25
  term
• 27:26
  I
• 27:26
  might
• 27:26
  not
• 27:26
  want
• 27:26
  to
• 27:27
  be
• 27:27
  cleaning
• 27:27
  hot
• 27:27
  tubs
• 27:28
  and
• 27:28
  you
• 27:28
  know,
• 27:29
  doing
• 27:29
  stuff
• 27:30
  like
• 27:30
  that.
• 27:30
  So
• 27:30
  that's
• 27:31
  maybe
• 27:31
  one
• 27:31
  that
• 27:31
  will
• 27:32
  disappear
• 27:33
  in
• 27:33
  the
• 27:33
  future.
• 27:33
  Maybe
• 27:34
  one
• 27:34
  of
• 27:34
  the
• 27:34
  girls
• 27:34
  will
• 27:35
  take
• 27:35
  on
• 27:35
  that
• 27:35
  responsibility.
• 27:38
  Oh
• 27:38
  well
• 27:38
  Jenny,
• 27:39
  it's
• 27:39
  been
• 27:39
  such
• 27:39
  a
• 27:40
  pleasure.
• 27:40
  You
• 27:40
  are
• 27:41
  just,
• 27:41
  you
• 27:42
  just
• 27:42
  lit
• 27:42
  up
• 27:42
  the,
• 27:43
  the
• 27:43
  conversation
• 27:44
  and
• 27:44
  just
• 27:44
  watching
• 27:45
  you
• 27:45
  on
• 27:45
  screen
• 27:46
  you
• 27:46
  just
• 27:46
  come
• 27:46
  across
• 27:47
  as
• 27:47
  so
• 27:48
  cheery
• 27:49
  and
• 27:49
  just
• 27:50
  positive.
• 27:50
  It
• 27:50
  just
• 27:51
  shines
• 27:51
  through.
• 27:51
  So
• 27:51
  it
• 27:52
  definitely
• 27:52
  all
• 27:52
  adds
• 27:53
  up
• 27:53
  to
• 27:53
  somebody
• 27:53
  who's
• 27:54
  doing
• 27:55
  farming
• 27:55
  on
• 27:55
  their
• 27:56
  own
• 27:56
  terms.
• 27:58
  That's
• 27:58
  grand.
• 27:58
  I
• 27:58
  don't
• 27:59
  think
• 27:59
  we
• 27:59
  could
• 27:59
  do
• 27:59
  it
• 27:59
  any
• 27:59
  other
• 28:00
  way,
• 28:00
  so
• 28:02
  that's
• 28:02
  grand.
• 28:02
  It's
• 28:03
  been
• 28:03
  a
• 28:03
  pleasure.
• 28:04
  It's

• 28:08
  just
