I have just persuaded my other half that I can go to the Lanark sale on Wednesday...
anyone else planning to go?

I am after some Shetland ewes (maybe), but the catalogue doesn't say what colour they are.... so taking the trailer but no idea if it will be a waste of diesel or not...

It's on Thursday, I think.

I was planning to go but trailer otherwise engaged and only a few Coloured Ryeland ewe lambs, so if demand is high, I might have a wasted journey and I just don't have time for that just now.

Just had a look at the catalogue & there's nothing there that takes my fancy.

In saying that, come thursday morning i'll be champing at the bit raring to get over there

I'm hoping to go, nothing in the catalouge jumped out at me -apart from the llama and the mini shetlands - but it's supposed to be a pig buying day As long as things aren't too hectic here I'll be the one with the blue buggy and red haired toddler !

Llama, I'm off to see th catalogue....

[egglady]

oh oh i want to go but i've hurt my back and not sure i would be able to drive/walk aorund.....does anyone want to buy the 3 berkshire weaners for me please?  (assuming they are ok and dont cost much of course...)

[scotelf]

I daren't go as I'd come home with all the ponies with no where to put them!

I have enough equines at the moment, need to leave space for other animals next year. I must NOT buy anything this year, must not, must not.........

After starting the thread I will now not be able to go, as I have a lamb in "intensive care" due to flystrike on her (Treated with Vetrazin!) back. It is quite bad as I only saw it when she stopped moving around, her fleece was looking normal. A couple of big holes on her back, but she is still quicker at the feed trough than her healthy sister.... So now "cleaning her out" twice a day, not a job I love! Just hope she pulls through, she is my biggest ewe lamb, meant to stay for breeding!

The idea of going is great. However I have no where left at the moment and would love to bring everything home...

What you done to your back??

bent over yesterday to take laundry out the basket and it just went 'ping'.  cant sit, walk or stand! most annoying, esp since i was all fired up for the garden after seeing you the other day!

[HappyHippy]

I'm afraid I too will have to make my apologies 
I'm still waiting for my pig to farrow and haven't quite got round to finishing my fences so no more piggies for me at the moment 

[jameslindsay]

I really, really fancy going but a bit far to go just for a nosey.

[egglady]

dont go just for a nsey james - buy the llama for you and the berkshire weaners for me....they'll fit in a dog crate!!!!  not so sure about the llama though!

[dizzy1pig]

thats goos idea... you go and bring us all home something nice that way we cant be tempted

[jameslindsay]

Nicki - I think you are the devils child, you are soooooooooo bad.
