Is it not raining with you??

We've only got 60 ewes left to do but they're 8 miles from home with no shed we can get them in (even if we could get them dry) - doesn't look like we'll get 'em done this week

About 40 left over from yesterday. They've bin in all night so nice and dry, rained all night here, just eased off around 6 ish so got moved um to the clipping shed ready to start after breaky. Wool bags to tie up frist.
Give it wet here all week so dont think there'll be any more done, but the sea breeze helps

 

[Gator]

Early start, got the hoggs inside before it rains.....Again....

All marked, scanned and wormed, read for taxi ride back to the moor
