Hi,
Also from Derbyshire, not too far from Bakewell.
I work on a farm with 200 mules, 500 horned sheep and decided to take on the 12 cade lambs last year. Since then I've bought some Ryelands and a few mules and as small plots of grazing have come up I've taken them on.
Just acquired a shed and some land where I could keep some wearers for fattening, so may just take the plunge in the next few months
Always happy to chat/meet new and like minded people, drop me a message sometime
