119 - Will Mallet - A Farewell To Will

Ep. 119
•

This week's podcast has a running theme of positivity, from a fantastic week for markets, to new beginnings for long term employee Will, to finishing the episode with a father, son beer tasting session as Andrew and Henry sample some delicious beers kindly gifted this week.


In Farmchat this week, a bittersweet episode as Will Mallet joins Andrew on the podcast for the first and last time as he prepares to leave Dewing Grain after 12 years. The two talk Will’s health and safety role, future endeavours including property management and HGV driving before reminiscing on funny stories from their twelve years together at the company.


And to finish off the episode, Andrew and Henry get the opportunity to taste some great beers from Woldtop Brewery, kindly gifted by Simon Minns of James Mortimer in Yorkshire, thank you Simon!


Beers tasted: Woldtop Brewery - Hello Velo 4.2% and Anglers Reward 4.0%


On the topic of positivity, an Audio Book recommendation mentioned in the podcast by Henry: Zero Negativity - The Power of Positive Thinking by Ant Middleton.
