I've been advised by the farmer that he and his vet (imaginary I suspect) have had a rethink and have decided it wasn't lead poisoning that killed his cattle, and have now diagnosed it as either a lightening strike or stress.As there hasn't been any lightening of late and I doubt the cattle suffered apparently fatal physiological levels of stress witnessing my crash the farmer has conceded I am not liable for his alleged fatalities. He has however said he has had to move the cattle from the field into another that will now prevent him from harvesting silage from it so he wants compensated for 22 acres of silage.
Some peoples kids huh !!
Edit to add: when I told the insurance adjuster the new diagnoses he pissed himself laughing.
