Tups will clip and the dry hoggs... but not much hope for the ewes!
I started on ewes here today, last year
I've no interest in even thinking about it yetGot a single this morning, first for over a fortnight, think there's 4 left to lamb. Won't be any clipping here til mid July at the earliest

Had an afternoon on this, was only a few stones till the bloody sheep found it at lambing time
Very satisfying
Found this little fella amongst the stone

Must of had better stone dressers when they built these
You put clothes on your stones?!?
Whinstone doesn't really dress like that, you get lots of small stone and nothing is uniform

Did 60 ewes on Thursday. 1 or 2 bad ones but they were decent - clipped a lot worse!
Doing 160 ewes on Tuesday and then 140 dry hoggs on Wednesday... there's another 200 I think will clip, but I'm getting my jag on Thursday morning and I've been told not to plan any work for Thurs or Fri just in case I take a reaction

I'd rather not think about it just yetI'm thinking about it but that's all
