Ben gives David a hand on the yard, appreciating the screen break. David jokes that Ben’s NHS work is to give him a break from the family farm. Ben observes his Dad can’t resist another dig over his views on inheritance tax.

He’s happy to help. He and Joy agree to meet tomorrow. David and Ben agree something needs to be done about dog walkers not picking up after their pets, risking neospora affecting livestock. David tells Ben he’s having some signs made to put up around Brookfield. Ben remarks on the hard hitting nature of the image but David maintains it needs to be impactful to get the message across.
