The argument so far ...
WELL, it looks like the first couple of days of the Highland Show are going to be absolute mayhem - and it will be nothing whatsoever to do with anti-social behaviour at the event!
No, it will be the the biggest 'in, out, shake it all about' climax of our lifetime, as the country decides on our EU membership.
And you can bet your bottom dollar it will be an even messier affair than the independence referendum of 2014 which divorced many hitherto sane people from reality! Already there have been references to Better Together and Project Fear.
As far as farming is concerned, I am willing to bet the 'Inners' promise us a veritable land of milk and honey, while the 'Outers' will serve up a laden table feast of opportunities. Neither, of course, will be anything like the truth.
A diet of farming 'porky pies' will be the fare we have to dine on until June 23.
