could be a lot of uneaten festival lamb in the North West this weekend. Wonder what that will do to trade next week.
What were they like Werzle? I've got a few booked into Whitland tomorrow.

It won’t stop the job this weekend
Does that make cows £3.10?
Well it must because I got £3.00 this week!!
Not that long since clean we’re £3.15
Videos still available to view on mccartneys agriculture facebook and you do not need to be on fb to watch it. Odd few poor quality animals were average but anything half decent flew, seeing a few usual autumn vendors that would sell 24mths animals cashing in 20mth animals now because of the good trade . This will only compound the trade because they will not be there for the autumn sales, 400kg+cattle are going to get short on the ground come oct/nov

They are a tricky weight for the short stay finishers as time of year goes on. Sedge (yo-yo) mkt says a good trade but not as strong ppk as the short stayers. We are overstocked and shut down, have grass but are probably feeding for no £ gain.
Is that up on last week?

In laws have a 10 year old limo cow to go. Long good fit cow. They normally go deadweight. Is there any weight limits on cull cows as she is a rather big girl 950-1050kg I would say?
