Miles fondly recalled his childhood on the farm, saying: “I really enjoyed growing up on the farm. One of my jobs was doing the chickens, collecting the eggs, looking after them, feeding them. I’m doing more work with the cows and the sheep at the moment,”.

So, I’ve got to help dad when it’s needed and I can’t leave him to manage. Then, when Reuben needs it and he gets stuck, I need to go and help him.”
