    I was there aswell. Very good sale. Place packed, couldn't get in the door. Anything nice made crazy money. Picked out one 6 month old Sympa heifer selling with foster black lim cow. Made €6.5k. Another Gigolo heifer, not even in calf made €8k.
    Did you see many overseas buyers there Limestone? Would explain the high prices.

    Are you saying the one I bought was not great!!!!!!!:D
    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I thought some prices were reasonable, very few northern buyers.

    LOT 19 was a outstanding cow, the best cow in the sale. Some exceptional heifers sold also.
