Wow, what a fascinating man Andy is. I could listen to his stories all day. Great podcast Cammy and Iona 👏👍

[@marmalademomzyboop8975]

Well accomplished guest! Far more adventurous in life experiences than I ever been. Very knowledgeable, I am hooked on your podcast.

[@judyphillips7892]

I really appreciate the amazing variety of guests on your podcasts, and how you have them share their personal background. It's fascinating to learn how life steers us along our different paths. Always a joy to spend time with you both.💕

[@barbalbers8920]

Took a few seconds to keep up with how fast Andy talks but once I did it was great. That man's got more stories in him. I'm going to try to find his children's books, love that kind of thing. Never would have known anything about him without this podcast. Great job as usual Cammie and Iona!

[@katesterling8915]

😂😂Cammy, "my granny was pals with a Spanish guy, so I have to support the family". 😅😂🤣 TBF they did win 👏🐄🐑🤩⚽

[@amandagoodman2980]

Another great podcast Iona and Cammy. Fascinating to hear about the history of the Aberdeen Angus, just might have to buy the book 🤣! More stories about the histories of different breeds, sheep, cattle and goats pleeeeeese 👌👏🥳

[@pitbladdodavid]

What a wealth of knowledge. Brilliantly fascinating

[@casperbenj]

Andy is a wealth of knowledge and stories. He's a fast talker but luckily for my ear he doesn't have a strong accent. Enjoyed the podcast.

[@naomicoward4687]

An amazing gentleman.

[@emmett1739]

Absolute gentleman ,who knows his livestock and breeders and how to party no matter the result. Love his Top Lines Tales podcast and let's face it if you have no story you haven't lived .

[@katesterling8915]

I must sound like a broken record but it's another great interesting podcast. Your questions are great and your guest was fun & full of great stories. 👏🐄🐑🤩

[@elainegatenby80]

Another great podcast. Andy has done so much in his career. Took me a wee while to keep up with him as he speaks very quickly.

[@noldynights]

What a lad!!

[@ChristineJones-yu2pq]

[@vickimarkjones]

Enjoyed the podcast, as usual.

[@pjk1714]

Well done ✔️

[@willyfindlay4398]

Great interview. Suprised you managed under an hour for the Pod Cast. Do you have alink to his pod cast ?😊

[@FedByFarmersPodcast]

It should be in the description 😊👍

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Interesting

[@Andy-ix2ox]

I don’t eat lamb from the middle of February to the end of may jn because I can’t abide the smell of it cooking, but I make up for it the next few months because barbecued lamb chops are irresistible.

[@jamesmccall8182]

You canny be cooking lidl meat right as good as any beef in scotland

[@andrewjardine3820]

Ar you getting tom pemton on the pod cast

[@pjk1714]

It would be great but often the interview comes to him. He doesn't leave his herd.

[@Heather0804]

⁠@@pjk1714 Tom was actually with Cammy at Dairyflow in Ayrshire, Scotland this last Friday 19th July for their 20th anniversary celebration. We can only hope there was time for a podcast 🤞🏻

[@FedByFarmersPodcast]

Plan is to have a Live event near Christmas with Tom as the guest 😃

[@Heather0804]

⁠@@FedByFarmersPodcast Can’t wait to hear the 3 of you having a good old chin wag 😊

[@juliemoses1909]

How does this guy keep showing cattle and sheep when he’s gallivanting all over Europe? We needed a timeline. Who was raising his animals?

[@FedByFarmersPodcast]

😂 He must be in 3 places at one time!

[@lesleysewhappy1740]

1066 (14th October) William the conqueror invaded England and shot Harold in the eye at the Battle of Hastings - the story depicted in the Bayuex Tapestry.

[@lesleysewhappy1740]

The battle of Largs was the last Viking raid on Scotland - 1263

[@willyfindlay4398]

The line under King Harold on the Tapestry says " Careful you will have someone's eye out with that ! " . Lol😊😅😊

[@margobrown6140]

Jings, I need a lie down after that one... great guest but a hunner miles an hour 😀

[@brigidconroy2111]

Not to be a smartass but seems that the local witch or a woman who was deemed a witch was blamed 500 years ago for too much rain or not enough That to be said farmers typically have not had the power to defend themselves against environmental damage Bad farming techniques cause problems but industry holds a bigger responsibility than farmers Now factory farming because it is on a large scale with a profit focus not a lifestyle or legacy purpose

[@juliemoses1909]

Don’t like the smell of cooking lamb? Blasphemy!

[@WendyKing-x7e]

In this day of political correctness I was taken back with the term birds!! The girls from Amsterdam "tall birds on bicycles" 😂 🙄

[@johnpollock2692]

It's burds in Scotland. To coin a phrase; "whaurs the burds". 😂

[@WendyKing-x7e]

Is there a description of Scottish 'burds'? It'll be interesting if Cammy or Iona mention this in future podcasts as I always thought girls/ladies were referred to as lasses in Scotland? 🙂

[@johnpollock2692]

The term originates from a comedy sketch called "only an excuse "

[@FedByFarmersPodcast]

Aye, we use 'Lassies' and 'Burds'. And we'd say 'Hen' or 'doll' as a pet name.
