small gang tonight
Doesn't look like so many buyers in the ring tonight compared to other times I have watched it. Also I got no sound?

So been selling for 7 hours nearly....... That's a lot sheep really..... Is it a market you use often?
75/80% of our sheep go back through Bentham finished, the remainder go through Longtown. Used too buy most of our mule ewe lambs there too. Only stopped as had a change of breeding, more SBF less swale. Damn good auctioneers, very keen and obliging. They actually pay attention if you have a problem rather than just laughing and walking away.
