Oxford Sandy and Black, and all for pork!

Hope to start the breeding with the next lot, once I can convince the family that they are compatible with commuting! Getting up 15 minutes earlier to feed them each morning is going to be a challenge!

The ground was looking fine till the two inches of rain that we had yesterday afternoon. Managed the swamp the car less than 2 miles from home after a 350 mile round trip to pick them up yesterday. My wife had to come out in the landrover to tow me and the trailer out of the flood!
