    Unfortunately Marie, I don't!!!! It gets taken away by the friend of DH thats shears for us - there isn't much neither and I don't think we'd get a lot for it. Its the lambs we go for......have 3 chubby ones waiting to be ....erm...as I say to my kids "taken to Mr Jones' farm as he likes boy lambs"....can't tell them where they really go as they'd be upset. They know how we get the meat but seeing they're "our" lambs its different for them! They'll be off a few weeks before Christmas!!
