Renault Print Ads

I have never driven a Renault Twingo but I like their whimsical advertisements particularly as they feature sheep!! I really like the print ad shown below and keep asking my shearers to have a go!!

For what it is worth Top Gear said "Far better styled, and available in right-hand drive, the new Renault Twingo is a really decent stab at the city car market. The only catch is the price, which may not seem far enough off the bigger, better Clio." Seems to be about 6/10. I'll stick with my Subaru Outback and the old ute.

The Ram Class of 2011 - Ready for sale November 12th

Here are the flock rams in the yards before shearing in August - they are really filled out now and will be ready for the sale on November 12th at Logancrest, Goulburn Road, Crookwell.
There is also a short video of the rams from late September on the website (http://www.daramalan.com.au/ram_sale.html) - not great quality but good enough to see their structure and condition.

Etna, Vico and Rivelin arrive at DBLS!!!

Etna (#4) and Vico (#7) with Ashley Corkhill of Normanhurst Border Leicester Stud, Boorowa

On 27th September we bought three new rams from the Corkhill family's Normanhurst Stud in Boorowa. The two stud (Etna and Vico) and one flock (Rivelin) rams were sired by Cadell Stud rams and Normanhurst ewes and all had good bloodlines with Cadell and Retallack influence. Rivelin and Vico are also registered $uperBorder$ meaning that any First Cross Ewes they sire can be marketed as such and hopefully for a small premium. All up three very good purchases, genetically and financially. They will all be working very hard next year at joining time.

Not the best day though as my car broke down halfway between Crookwell and Boorowa. If it had not been for the kindness and genorosity of John Rankine (http://www.jrdistributors.com.au/) and Brad Croker of Elders Crookwell the whole day would have been a right off. Now I have to just be patient about the car getting repaired.......
