Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. The structure of the wall was incorrect, so he won ten grand with Claims Direct.
It’s raining, it’s pouring. Of course, it’s global warming.
Jack and Jill went into town to fetch some chips and sweeties. Now he can’t keep his heart rate down and she’s got diabetes.

Today the market was mostly steady. Alfalfa was a little stronger and grass sold slightly lower. The bedding sold mainly steady with more interest in the better quality than the average and lower quality. There remains about 1-2 weeks left of cutting silage before most will be complete. Auctions every Thursday at 12:30.
