The is much angst in the farming community here in the UK about the price of milk, the supermarkets and the global cream market have the farmers backed into the corner.
Here Mr Uphilldowndale debates the issues with a very fine cow.
The destination of this cow’s milk is less complicated than most, it will make very tasty cheese at Sharpham above the river Dart. They make wine too which is also very tasty (but not from milk obviously).

That first cow looks about ready to pop, poor dear!
Cow milk wine…..that might be interesting! 🙂
I’m totally on the side of the farmers in this debate – they’re being treated very badly.
I think a Dane will understand the cow’s language too 😉 – as we have long traditions of milk production too – and similar problems for the farmers I suppose…
