Hello and welcome from Carnoustie   :wave:

We've got weaner pigs to fatten this year - first time for a couple of years due to relocation. We've got Hampshires for the first time (always had Tamworths before) - we got them from Lillian and Robert Waddell, who get on here. They're wee sweeties (the pigs, not Lill and Robert  ;D)
