[QUOTE="Nithsdale, post: 7139763, member: 17508"] Apologies, I don't recall what you're saying. How can runners have been so cheap the last 2 years, but only this year a profit and last year a loss? If there's a loss, they were too expensive. If you're lambing them as hoggs, they are not runners... Bounce back loans, SFP paid early, highest fat lamb prices ever (?) in August /September... its no surprise many have went daft this year with money burning a hole. This trade is not the norm. IIRC 2017 was very good trade, 2018 was down quite a bit. Last year was up a very small way... this year is record breaking. There will be a big influx of ewe lambs next year due to this. I'm only saying what has happened time and again when prices rise. Im just hoping Brexit is putting off a lot of the casuals from jumping on the sheep trade with lamb prices so good As for the moaning, it's all you hear at the gimmer sale when prices drop and the dealers /runners loss their investment. Heard it too many times [/QUOTE]
