They look a lovely twin  :-* . Strongly marked yes, but not over marked. Mine have gone a bit too grey, looking forward to using my new Hillside ram lamb when he becomes a big boy in the summer, he comes from a line with stronger markings. My fleeces seem to be a fixed type now so bone and markings are my next mission. 
Not every day is baaaaaad!

These are Ashwood's first lambs and he was out of Holly and by one of your Hazlewood Tups.....No. 13 I think??...but you'll probably remember  ;)

The gimmer is going to be called "Cotton"  (the girls are all named after something to do with textiles - I've got Braid and Batique from last year  :innocent: ).    The tup, if he proves to be a good 'un will be called 'Faithmead Cedarwood' (boys called after Trees  :-J )   I've got Ashwood from 2 years ago but sadly lost Beechwood from last year  :'( .
 
All fine this morning  :thumbsup:
