I always thought farmers had a tough time making ends meet… but, not necessarily so.
Our commune 23500 Gioux gets a fair sum (€200k+) every year from ERDF for land rental to allow them to run the HT lines across.
Lucky you… I presume your taxes are kept to a minimum… with such a revenue…
Turns out that the Farmer is a cousin of the Maire…
Mmm… not so sure any non-family member would have been allowed to get away with breaking the law for 10 years… like this chap has…
