Layout can’t be described as anything but appalling...Any reports on yesterday?
Layout can’t be described as anything but appalling...
The event, no sign posts to show where anything was, a lot of confused people and speaking to a few trade stands they were shocked at how quiet it was - probably because they couldn’t be found?The farm's or the event's?
is there a difference between just doing the sheep in heels and doing the sheep in just heels,maybe that's what @neilo was getting atI really liked the site, although it was spread far, it just needed sign posting!
Was hard to know where anything was, but plenty to see at least and faces both new and old to chat to, good to see you and crew @Tim W
Nice to see the new rappa and also have now confirmed the scotpen is just way too high and heavy for me even with @neilo suggestion of just doing the sheep in heels....
I drove up in the morning, just over 6 hours with the plan to stay nearby.
My back gave in on me at around 4 and I decided to drive home
13 hours and 601 miles driving in an old Toyota hilux in one day is not very recommended... lots of coffee
Must agree it was badly sign posted !.The event, no sign posts to show where anything was, a lot of confused people and speaking to a few trade stands they were shocked at how quiet it was - probably because they couldn’t be found?
What do you mean by store lambs this time of year .?.I had the worst class of “butchers” lambs ever to judge there in a YFC Wales Stockman of the Year finals. 4 identical very plain ropey and under finished 50kg store lambs in a loose box with a côr where the lambs insisted on huddling whilst 15 of us tried to judge them.
I spoke to the chap at the hcc stand about what they were doing about promoting lamb and counteracting the bad press we are getting. He just told me the lamb job is not going to get any better you just have be more efficient. Its a shame he didn't have a 20% wage cut like some of us selling lambs did last week.

bit late in the season to expect anything other than poor tailenders surely.Store as in unfinished.
