Yes, got a Kune going for castration to the vets and I've managed to talk my dad into coming to the market with me "just for a look" ;) ::) ;D ;D ;D
If you and Lillian are going get her to give me a ring on my mobile - should be there from 10ish.
Maybe see you tomorrow :wave:
Take care,
Karen

No, managed to restrain myself (despite wanting a quad lol!) no pigs or chickens on sale today  :( ;)
Could have quite happily hung around all day chatting with Lillian & Robert  ;D but had to get home to the 2 legged babies  ;)
3rd Feb for the next pig sale - I'll try to be there, but probably just looking  ::) ;) ;D

I should manage to restrain myself (hopefully) HM  ;) Adelaide is due to farrow sometime between the 30th of Jan and the 3rd of Feb, so I'll have plenty of pigs and not really be needing any more (that's the theory  ::) ;D) But I'm nosey and like going for a look and the craik  ;D :wave:
