I hope he had 1 hell of a shepherds pack! So where did his son go from suisgill?
I better go a drive down the Strath before its never the same again!
As far as I can gather he’s working self employed for a couple of fowk and has a bit of ground on his own which I bet has some bloody well bred cheviots on it! I think him and his father got the chance to buy some sheep off Suisgill and Torrish before they left But I could be wrong! I would mate it angers and upsets me to think about what’s happening!

When the sheep go the people go!
it’s a scandal all in the name of a puckle trees usually so some big multinational can buy “carbon credits” and the government can tick the “green” box!
I think I’d have made sure I had a bit of “black loss” the six months before the dispersal!

Yip and alot of uncounted ewe lambs
He is in the process of registering a flock, he had a couple of tups at Lairg that weren’t registered yet, I think the name might be East Lodge if memory serves.As far as I can gather he’s working self employed for a couple of fowk and has a bit of ground on his own which I bet has some bloody well bred cheviots on it!

Hi, where did the tup in the first picture come from?
If they are averaging such high prices for stock why would they start using Aberfield?From what ive seen from that company's various breeds of tups they most certainly arent the future!!

I’m not disputing that!Unfortunately its the truth
I fully agree but there are “modern” farmers about who would lynch you for saying something like that!Seen them advertising some Highlanders....Wouldnt use them to sweep up let alone turn them out straight away.I’m not disputing that!
Plenty choice,a lot of good tups late in the day!!!
