I will be on £10.50 a ewe on cake and hopefully this last load will do.

It was cheaper than twin lamb when it was too wet to cake them

We will be £10. At least it's not as bad as last year.

Not gonna break any records here, ewes have spent so long in mud their legs are rotting halfway up the shin, be glad when it's all over.
Glad I've spent £16 and not £10 on them though
I've done what I can and that's all anyone can do.
