Bit harsh.
I think Whitland have done a sterling job in the absence of Carmarthen. Always full sheds and outside pens used on the dairy days!

Not questioning the present integrity of nd but are sale proceeds held in trust a/c i have seen the demise of two auctioneers in west wales(king thomas &bjp) and the trauma experienced by farmers affected. Do not think lightning does not strike twice or even three times.

biggest problem for bjp was the trust they gave dealers who then rode them
What did the lorry load of straw make?
And a couple of farmers, if you believe all the stories!

Therefore iff true then guilty of financial mismanagement and the obligation to look after clients sale proceeds.

well companies house lists bjp as having 750k debtors
cant see them ever getting that back
I was agreeing with you and adding that there was talk of certain farmers owing serious money to them as well as dealers.

Good first entry of calves!
Things have gone quiet here since the Mart reopened. How does everyone feel it’s going 6 months in?
I think quiet is the correct word!!!!

Sent few hundred there, seem good, few buyers there I’d never heard of which is good as never seen less than 5 buyers on the sheep side.
Shame it’s quiet there, shut for too long is the problem I’d say but numbers seem to be growing.
Whether they’ll be able to take a lot of the Emlyn customers with them there is another thing?
