Ponies are worth so little,a lot were sold for feeding lions at safari parks. Not all the show's faultCob and welsh pony sales stopped and not because of covid, show pitches are to dear forcing people not to bother.
The south of the country still needs a new pedigree / ram centre like Carlisle with good road networks ,with keen dedicated auctioneers (like banbury used to be ) its a damn trek to Builth or even Hereford from anywhere .
For people that need a few different breeds in one year,the nsa still has a place. Three sales tomorrow,Hereford Brecon and llandovery.

I think there is ,but maybe we need to move away from the circus of poor function sheep it's becomeWell, rumours of the demise of the big tent ram sales are over stated. There is definitely a place for sales with lots of people, lots of tups and lots of breeds all in one place.
