I could certainly find a use for their £50k a week or whatever it is

Are you sitting down? Top ten premiership players on £250+k a week, topping out at £400k a week. £50k a week wouldn't buy you much these days

I’ll send you these easycare lambs down. Moving then last night and I could have happily shot half of the Welsh bred barstewards

I know ear tags?? What the feck, unless it’s for your own purposes no one gives an actual f**k, it’s the first thing that goes in the bin! Go to a slaughter house an ask to see the man who reads the tags, they’ll f**king shît their self because they haven’t got a man!! What a load of bôllocks

Most of the abattoirs read the tags now and print them on kill sheet. Alternatively with Scoteid we can tie in the read order with the corresponding kill sheet.

They always used to sell the shearlings in the other ring but since it finished “early” last year they decided to sell everything through 1 ring so it was back to proper Hawes finishing time.

I remember once setting off home at 6, they were about half way through the catalogue

Maybe around you they do but they certainly don’t down here, most of our Muslim brethren that run abattoirs down here are only worried about one thing and that’s profit, I killed on the dead for twenty years up until two years ago and I never had a sheet come back with eartags on! Grades for every lamb but no ear tag by the side of it

With scot eid you match the kill no to the eid.
Not always a tag no on the kill sheet just a kill no.

Christ you get to some sales.

Only going to support . I’ve known the family for years !
Sounds like you’re jealous!

I know they're supposed to be wedge shaped, but I don't think the front legs are supposed to be shorter than the back ones - and that head is about 100yds farther away from the camera than the tail

 

[Hill Ground]

Does anyone know if you can view your historic annual sheep inventory online in a hurry?

Failed to print 2 years of them off. I thought they emailed you a copy.....apparently not!!!
