I do agree but it reality £4 £4.20 I can't see hoggs any better and that now soon they are gone the better off you will be.

When you keep hoggs every year you find out who your friends are
usually not many
They are either laughing at you because the trade is sh!t or not speaking when the trade is dear
I prefer the second choice

In the short term Tesco might be
getting more people into buying lamb,
if it's discounted as such.
Let's just hope the NZ runs out soon.

Just seen on the news the Italians are on the brink of starving while we close auctions due to no demand.
What a world we live in

Italians are all on house arrest though and a £25 fine is the least the Italian police would do if you were caught out of your house without good reason....
If it's the Daily Mail reporting that, it's a load of b011ocks. Please compare their virus articles with the BBC (which are actually fact based and updated every few minutes) you will soon establish that they are the masters of exaggeration. No wonder Mrs Trump sued them for 3 million, they are full of $#1%.
The Italians were partly responsible for the collapse of a major abattoir around your parts which lost thousands due to non payment for lamb. There is a reason why most will not send lamb there without payment up front at present.

Local butcher can’t keep stock on the shelf , fillet 70 quid a kilo tiny little lamb chops six quid for 4 , we producers are getting shafted big time he’s shut one day a week due to can’t get enough stock.
Another example of why we need to have our own abbatoir. New build even

Smaller more regional abbatoirs ?
People can make as many excuses up for Tesco and co as they like, but if they think they are honest operators then I’m the pope.

I took great pleasure in rearranging the shelves in Tesco tonight. Please note, the two ‘out of stock’ stickers.

More reason not to buy it .
What's R4L at the minute for a dairy bred blue carcass?
Done this with pork (when we were in the pig game)
They try to escort you quietly off the premises without touching you
Key is to make lots of noise & tell everyone why you are doing it ---one person doing it achieves very little but a concerted campaign can make waves
Best done whilst leafleting customers too
