I find it so frustrating that the rare breeds sales at Stirling and Carlisle are on the same day, seems like very bad planning to me.

But at least the Stirling sale is no longer on the same day as the Smallholders show at Lanark  :thumbsup:

But, as Big Light says, the Hebridean Show is on the Friday, in the evening usually.  Sheep start arriving after 2pm, or have done in previous years, but first delivery time is worth checking with the mart.  This means that the sale can start promptly the next morning.
