MrMoran   10 #253 Posted October 17, 2012 It is strange that name a nd praise is allowed but name and shame isn't.  Forum owners rules i guess. I dont agree personally, i think we sould be able to name and shame but think how that would be open to abuse. Its far less likely that name and praise will result in legal action than name and shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
MrMoran   10 #254 Posted October 17, 2012 Did the BBC touch on the subsidies that dairy farmers get for producing that milk or the reason why they don't stop production is because of said subsidies received?   ******************** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
OurCowMolly   12 #255 Posted October 17, 2012 Did the BBC touch on the subsidies that dairy farmers get for producing that milk or the reason why they don't stop production is because of said subsidies received?  The UK has 10,000 dairy farms left now & the BBC have said many times 1 farm closes everyday & that the UK imports over 1million litres of milk daily so they do close for sure.Bradfild Brewary farm was a dairy not long ago. No subsidies would be far better & a pint of milk at volvic water prices less hassle for us, but would you want to pay £1.30 a pint ? You wonder how volvic water sells when water out the tap is almost free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

OurCowMolly   12 #258 Posted October 17, 2012 *HOW* much????  That was a couple of years ago, Marks & Spencer offered £70 for our website so its probably about right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You have to admit that what they have achieved is magnificent, they have created numerous great products as well as created a great day out for the family.  Only been twice but regularly pick up a tub from Loxley on my way back from the garden centre, will make a trip back up to the farm when the weather picks up however.

You have to admit that what they have achieved is magnificent, they have created numerous great products .  I agree completely with what you've said here. They've achieved a huge amount in a short time, made a premium product which people aren't afraid to pay for & plug & support other local producers of Sheffield at every opportunity. And they were behind the setting up of Bradfield Farmers Market - yum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Personally i dont mind at all how many times OCM advertises their business, that's for the site owners to decide if they are doing too much of it. But i do see where the poster was coming from. OCM wont pay the advertising fee but they advertise anyway. Thats not really fair on the ones who do pay SF to advertise on here.

byeo   10 #262 Posted October 18, 2012 I'll have to tell everyone who has a business to go on the SF and post the odd plug.  I agree, OCM does seem to advertise their product all too often on these forums, why don't they start to pay like every other advert on here ?
