Congratulations on the successful sale--lambs all looked good! I'm curious what commission etc. does the auctioneer take, no doubt there's a cost. I haven't heard any mention of how well the campground fared this summer. No doubt the high cost of fuel may have curbed people's travel but hopefully you may have had more local campers to offset. Keep up the most interesting videos of all your various activities, most enjoyable. Sorry to hear of the ORF outbreak but it sounded like a small number of animals affected & besides you've sold the bulk of your production. It's a nasty affliction for infected animals.

Hiya Joanna & Nick, Great video, thank you both. Vindicated, you got £11 per lamb for that first load higher than you thought would be a good price. I've not put that well, but I guess you know what I mean. Well done, it could not have happened to a nicer couple than you pair. All your very hard work has paid off with the lambs sold and heading towards the start of the new season. How are the cows doing? We've not seen them for a while, but knowing you, as we are starting to do, I'm sure they are grand or is that champion? I was going to say about having a break but you beat me to it with the slight delay in broadcasting. If ever anyone earned their break it was you two. Congratulations to you both for a cracking year, so far. Stay safe, Steve xx
