We can thoroughly recommend Smallholder Shearing, they have just sheared our Shetlands for the second time and once more an excellent job.
AliClare sounds like you have grown your flock some, good to hear from you.

Do wish you were nearer - well, you would need to be a lot nearer.  We only have 6 Gotlands, and an elderly Shetland, plus 6 lambs which will need shearing in the Autumn before they go.  We are struggling to find someone to come out,not just because its a small flock, but most of the shearers we have tried are getting on in years, and just want to do their regular work.

Thanks for coming from Fife to Wishaw to do the sheep on Friday evening Gary and Audrey - great job! I have a couple of photos if I can ever get round to getting them onto the computer.
Cheers, see you next year,
