Three years to day our little superstar was diagnosed with a high grade brain tumour. Today I had this moment. Tomorrow is never a given, and good luck to all those who are fighting their battles.

A Gentlemen who will be missed for his many qualities and advocacy.
“Today British farming has lost one of its greatest ever advocates and the NFU has lost its greatest ever President.” Following the death of Lord Henry Plumb at the age of 97, NFU President Minette Batters has paid tribute to ‘a truly remarkable man’ 👉 ow.ly/Uupj50IKCg9

Redmires Orion is the last British Blue bull to have a full progeny proof. Orion lives in Hungary along with other bulls we exported. The first calves show the dark blue road markings and have been born easily. @Semex @LizHoggarth @GabbyJEmery @BuitelaarGroup @CarrsYoungstock

And last but by no means least - the Big Band, who were central to the evening. Tackling a range of repertoire from the hugely difficult 'Whiplash' to favourites such as 'Sir Duke', they were just magnificent.

Blending profitable food production and agricultural productivity with environmental sustainability and landscape management is not a new challenge for farmers !! Many generations of farming families over hundreds of years have adapted to changing societal needs.

Great to see Norbreck bred bulls doing so well. Olympian was a special bull @ThrimbyFarms #britishbluecattlesociety
The first calf from our young bull Norbreck Olympia. Small birth weight, calved naturally unassisted. Calf up and away. Lucky really because mum is a touch fruity. She’s one of the quietest cows on the farm usually.
