Well done that man, you can make a difference in this difficult time. I have spent the week watching my landlord drive by every day with a grab-full of dead animals, he must have lost more than fifty ewes in the snow so far. Hard times for everyone on the hills.

Hello from a slowly thawing hill in Mid Wales. :wave: I'm not too far from you. A friend of mine lives at Lake Vyrnwy and she says the snow there is still horrendous, trees down all around the lake. When the sun eventually shines, you'll see what people mean when they couldn't give this life up.
