There is a worrying trend in farmers when they decide to pack up. They die very soon after! It’s almost as if they’ve gone hard at it all their lives and when they stop, body stops.

Yes, I was selling. I thought there was a good show of cattle but a lot less than there used to be at that sale

Don’t leave it too late, make sure there is a bit of time to enjoy it. I intend on being cashed up and done by sixty. No living children and on the edge of a village, I’m not chewing on until I drop for the government to have it for free

At the ua they weigh all the stores aswell, but l take mine to the other market and if lv really nice ones l get them to weigh them and just say the weight they are before they sell them, always more deductions with the fat aswell. It's a gamble either way, probably want 40/44kg in a couple of months time when everyone kept them to 50kgs.

Kids won't know what that is. Not many places will serve it any more either, I'm told.
Half of lager, half of cider in the same glass, if @Anymulewilldo wants to try it at home.
