I'm having a hay crisis.....help !!!!!

[ThomasTank]

I have been having my hay from farmer F for a few years, he is usually a little more expensive but very nice hay, and he is a nice guy.
My children go to the same school as farmer H's children and they have said why dont I buy hay from them.
Now as I am moving the horses and it will be slightly more expensive where I am going, I thought I would buy from farmer H this year ( but I do like farmer Fs hay).

Farmer F has just phoned to say his hay will be £3.25 a bale but will sell it to me for £3.00 as I am a regular and I buy his meat and got him a lot of new customers.

I have sort of told farmer H that I will have his this year( also £3.00 a bale).
Oh flaming heck.....what shall I do !!!!??????

have some off farmer F and some of farmer H

lol

 

[Tangaroo]

Cant you have some from both, to keep them both happy. It always pays to keep your finger in more than one pie!!

Go with Farmer F, as he clearly is a very nice guy, and his help and friendship could come in useful.

Make up some random excuse for farmer H.

Crikey your hay is expensive.

I would buy 95% of your hay from farmer F (as you obviously value him) but a small handfull from farmer H as you said you would do plus if you buy a little bit from him he may come in handy if in future you have to buy all of you hay from him he will also value you as a respectable customer that farm F does!

tell farmer f that farmer h has very nice hay at £2 a bale, but if farmer f want to better the price then you will have it off him, just jokeing

This is quite a crisis for me !! ( I thrive on them )
I have had a good chat with farmer F, and he said he doesnt mind what I do and suggested that I didnt buy from farmer H and then stop as he will wonder why. He also said he doesnt mind if I but from farmer H, as his hay may even be better !

My descision..............



Buy hay from farmer F as usual and buy straw from farmer H

What do you think ??

 

[ThomasTank]

Joking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think thats a flipping good idea !!!!!!

Its a shame they sort of know eachother !!

 

[SpruceRI]

Or you could give peeps like me Farmer H and Farmer F's details in case our own Farmer - in my case Farmer J doesn't have any spare hay!!!

 

[ThomasTank]

Are you in Kent ???

 

[Thistle]

At £3 a bale for good hay, buy it all and store it if you have room. It will be worth double that come the spring after the awful summer.

I agree! £3 a bale will seem a bargain by February...buy buy buy!
