Was there but only saw the last few rows of lambs sold.

But there was a buzz about the trade. Saw some good strong stores make £90 but were fit to kill and prob 45kg plus.

over all think it was a a decent trade with positive outlook.

That’s the gamble. Could be oversupply in a month. Bet higher prices have opened the cake bag.

 

[Top Tip.]

Not sure on numbers as did not walk back to start of draw.

Prob less than last couple weeks but don’t hold me to that.

I’m thinking about taking a few nice char cross 44kg on Monday. Be first time in weeks I’ve sold anything in market, direct sales going nicely and these are second draw tail end lambs.

Spoke to someone last night that buy’s lambs for Dunbia and he said they are really short of lambs, he reckoned they’d be hitting 4.50 by Christmas.

No idea why farmers are surprised about prices rising? We have been shafted all year due to the Brexit dates being changed and the bad press created by the anti meat lobby.

Christmas and a confirmed delay with Brexit have increased confidence in the job so prices are bound to rise, if I am honest the prices are still too low when you take into account the effort and investment involved.

No idea but Newark-by-the Sea (feck, there's a lot of standing water about ) was up again..............

Rumour had it that one of the 'new faces' in Newark was buying for them - no idea if it's true or not.
