Skipton sheep report shows sqq -4.3p but overall average +5.3p.
464 out of 982 were heavies and they were up about 13p on average

I wouldn’t say that was a disaster at all.

I’ve only got 1 left that I know of, the neighbour saw her fleetingly last week before she disappeared over the horizon. 
Just looked and this time last year I was selling culls straight off lambs for £70-80 so when you put that too the lambs it makes things the same as last year for my bank balance anyways

Just
throw a match in the tank and walk awayI can't stand Landrovers. But a Landrover that smells of pig sh5te too?
Rapidly isn’t the word
I can’t keep up they’re going up that fast 
just smile and keep going, aslong as the arse doesn’t fall out in august I’ll do alright this year still…. If I can sell all my lambs and cull ewes for £120 I’ll be happy enough
Where, in the ringTheir is a sign
How did you get on with the pigs, was it worth the tripTheir is a sign

Ewe's were a flying trade especially medium sized 1/2-2/3 meat ewes. They made the best big ewes look cheap. They had najibs and Shan's in who aren't always there made it interesting.
Scrap it. My old Isuzu did it when it had not long passed an mot as well. Got the back welded back on solid like they told you stronger than new. Not long after I'd paid to have the back fixed I loaded some cattle into the trailer and the chassis snapped in two between the cab and the back tray Nissan style. Got one side fixed and then the other side did it. It was rusting from the inside out it was f**ked even though it looked fine... till you put a bit of strain on it towing....

No prices for Sedge yet..
But Exeter spring lamb SQQ was 3.16 ppk and down 6.1ppk on the week, ( numbers down 25% on last week as well )
Hoggs down about 17ppk on the week.
Told today that deadweight buyers are hoping/aiming to drop the price again from the already 10ppk drop on last week from Thurs onwards!

Suckler cow trade at Sedge on Sat was as flat as a pancake.
Most outfits selling well below the cow's cull value and on top of that the calve would be thrown in for free in real terms.
Bull trade also very sticky, Char bulls sold well but apparently ( did not see them sold ) every other breed was very sticky and many bulls not making much more if any more than their on the hook value.
