Well had a good day at Thainestone kept my hands down, Was interested in a couple of pens of Scots Grey bantams but missed them to busy watching other things. Had a roast beef lunch with skirly and a rowie, smashing takes me back to my grans house many years ago she was an Aberdonian. On the way home picked up two lovely ewe Shetland lambs from lachlanandmarcus, A long day but very enjoyable.
