South Molton today.
Cull ewes averaged £92.33 head ( up £4.88 on the week ) with 204 penned.
Hoggs averaged 205.3pk up 1.9pk on the week with 415 penned ( up 40% on the week entry wise )
Spring lambs struggled a shade but double the entry on the week still averaged 228.3pk
Sell live to thrive in these difficult times!

The buyers didn’t want them....as guthrey says probably with it being good Friday tomorrow
Everything is shut around here. There was a good chippy van that came to the village but he stopped to.Yes they are( currently )
Local pizza place is doing delivery's and another is open like the Chippy.
Mobile Pizza van that goes to the villages is still on the road and the local one that parks in a car park at weekends doing Thai food is still open as usual.
No reason why Maccy ds shut their drive thru as that is classed as a takeaway but the company seems to have taken the easy option and put all the staff on the 80% wage thing.

That is the problem, businesses that should not have shut and which the govermment didn't think would shut down have done!
Most car garages around here are shut down, just plain madness!
Farming isn't immune to what lies ahead either in 6/12 months + time and it wouldn't surprise me if beef cattle aren't sub £2 deadweight and prime lambs at £40 quid head if this farce of a lockdown carry's on any longer than another 3 weeks!

What is farcical about the lockdown? If people would stick to it better it would be all over allot sooner. Instead some not all are a bit meh towards it for some reason they dont just shut a country down for no reason.

Media drove the shut down.
And if the situation is so serious that we need the country locked down why are VOSA still operating like normal and pulling in lorry's and buses for routine checks??..................

I think the economic reality is setting in, the government has extended its overdraft and I think the onus will be on getting the country open for business as soon as it's safely possible
To make lots of [emoji383][emoji383][emoji383][emoji383][emoji383][emoji383][emoji383]trying to catch people out!

Yep whilst millions of people are losing their jobs/ home and businesses that may have took decades to build up.
Disgusting, one rule for them and another rule for everyone else!

How longs a peice of string. I think it will be july/August time, trouble is if we get it wrong we will end up with another lockdown
They didn't want any was going to send some
I think that's a bit ott at this point, no one has lost their business or house around here due to the disease to my knowledge.

I will have some soon but I was going to hold them for a bit. No demand or not wanting to kill with good Friday?
