Good luck with it mate. Our group that start any day now scanned crap again, 156%. Scan second batch next month, fingers crossed be better.
Reckon you’ll be alright, we scanned not so good last year put that down to being dry, we are very light land though, this year much better, only 12 empty out of 800 so was pleased with that! Fingers crossed goes well for you! Bloody wet here too, lashed down at six last night then blew a gale all night, another ewe lambed out in it so must get them in by friday? he says wishing hopefully!Dont about you but it bloody sent some down last night here??

lambing was bloody marvellous, used teasers for the first time last year, was over half way through in the first week
.Makes a change 10 or a dozen at the start
I've enjoyed catching up on this thread! If I can make a suggestion for leggings, these from Guy Cotten must be the best £40 I've spent. Twice the price of Flexothanes and about 20 times as good, you will not regret it!
