Tom's Farm - Anyone know anything about it?

I am sorry, I dont care how old, poor, out of touch etc, anyone can see when an animal is in pain or mistreated. If they dont do anything about it then they deserve all they get.
Cate:
Having been there twice I do not consider that this farmer is in anyway financially poor, apart from in the common-sense department, the off-roading is great terrain, but there are no health and safety measures in place, nor is there any regard for the present or future care of the land. If some management plan were in place, parts of the land able to repair and regenerate after the damage of vehicles happened this place could be incredible and an absolute gold-mine.

One issue here... there are restrictions on how often you can use land for non-agricultural purposes if it is classified as agricultural. For the farmer to concentrate on the off-road "business", there is a good possibility he would have to apply for planning permission for a change of use.
The above is meant for information... I'm not condoning poor treatment of animals... for that there is no excuse, especially if there is a history of it and court orders are in place.

tom may be in prison yes thats true, but mrs breeze is endevouring to clean up the site, no more sheepy things to get in the way also.
no more moo cows also yippee they just make bigger dents on yer wings when they lean on them.
she is in the proccess of actually registering the site officialy but council boffins want tree on the land instead,
the court case for rergistering has been put back untill tom comes out of nick after crimbo.
as for the things he has done he is paying his time inside now and lets not forget that.......
the site is still open for off roading as per usual by mrs breeze.
myself and some others will be going back in may or june time for a long weekend of mud !!!!!

This site could be the best in the world but I would never knowingly line the pockets of someone that can be cruel to animals.
Rant over!
