Hi and welcome from the Scottish Borders, we had some of our Zwartble lamb for dinner last night and it was fantastic, so lean and tender!
I have some Zwartble fleeces available if anyone interested!!

Hi and welcome from Invernesshire.

There are a few other Highland crofters here, please make use of the Crofting section of the forum as it doesn't get used enough!
