Title: Anyone going to Chelford on Saturday?
Post by: Haylo-peapod on September 19, 2012, 09:39:45 am
I'll be taking a couple of my GFD ram lambs for inspection in the hope that one (or both???) of them might be up to the grade for studding  :fc: .
 
Would love to meet up with any fellow TASers  :sheep:   :wave:

We might be going.  I'd been thinking of getting a small flock of GFD's and had been recommended this as the sale to go to, but since then we've had a rethink and for a variety of reasons and are going to get Oxford Downs instead.  Don't think we'll be buying on Saturday but may come for a look and a chat with whoever's around  :)

The show and sale was good fun - also a tad interesting as there was a GFD flock clearance and the sheep hadn't had their tails docked. Unfortunately my ram lamb has gone down with something (lousy timing) so not good news on that front.
