I can’t believe when you are getting £150 for hoggs you only give another £6 a head for stores!!

The problem was we were getting more than their other customers.

We were all talking about a fella that buys lots of cattle rather 'aggressively' a few weeks ago, I think someone said he was from the York area.

I reckon he might get paid more than the rest of us.........

Only for a couple of years though for some reason
