Shearing Time - Again

Yesterday the men spent the entire day from 7.30am until 7pm in the evening shearing, wrapping fleeces and moving sheep around in and out.
The previous day Philip, Len & Colin, had spent 1/2 the day getting the sheep nearer to the shearing shed.

laughingly I had my British Wool Board postcard today to inform me that last years shearing cheque should be in the region of £797. This does not cover half of the cost of shearing yet we have to do it for animal welfare.

So when customers wander how their lamb is so expensive, this is yet another cost that has to be covered.

here's waiting until next year
