Aye you were! And Smallburn was bidding against you for the lot you got! Think he took the rest of the pen?
Anyone going to Lairg on Tuesday?

Met in with aucheyeman again yesterday.
He wasn't one of the many being a general nuisance.
Mind you its prepared me for stirling on Saturday when I can't expect much the same but by different people!

Thanks OT we weren't selling, gonna sell a few in Dingwall. Deadline passed before we minded! Always sell in Dingwall too anyway.
Lairg, I found, had some high prices, but there were also plenty commercially priced tups. I guess a lot go for the same tup and then wonder just why they didn't like the pen mates that go for a lot lot less. Was his mouth really thousands of pounds worse?!!
Some mouths were bad though.
Good to meet Addie and west coast angus. Addiewell was the one shouting "shut the fuc#ing gate you bunch of ..."!!

How are these mouths getting past fields men or judges?

Not sure, I didn't go.
Ranged from £50 to over £200,plenty of good hill fresh ewes at £55 to£60. That is for correct ewes.
Not bad money at that then!
Good value there would have been plenty correct ewes sold at feeding price.

Are Dingwall and Stirling marts difficult to get to? Or more importantly,where the hell are they in relation to the town?
Not sure what you mean,this was Lairg we were talking about.

Sorry,was just a general question.I have drifted off from the store lamb thread.
Dingwall is very easy, right on the side of the main road and Armstrongs are there every week if you need anything trucked home. Never been to Stirling so can't comment but @Willie adie will know

Stirling isnt signposted off the motorway.
Junction 10,
And then the actual mart signpost only appears. When you see the place anyway
