"A reduced number of lambs forward were slightly dearer on the week, in particular for export types. A tremendous number of ewes forward for this centre at this time of year saw trade remaining buoyant however the smaller leaner end would be slightly harder to cash than they have been of late. Any power met a firm enquiry and were short of buyer's requirements."
