lol you wish mate. sheep farming is barely breaking even

Sam North2026-07-10T23:19:14.000Z

actually wool prices are pretty solid atm, good to see the industry still kicking

wood panelled room lmao, probably smells like mothballs and old money

Cameron Diaz2026-07-10T23:40:14.000Z

rich farmers selling overpriced wool to each other while the rest of us struggle. classic.

Eva Anderson2026-07-11T00:58:14.000Z

facts. but tbh the old school auctioneers are something to see

Grace Patel2026-07-11T00:35:14.000Z

why do we still spend money on rural feel-good stories when actual news is dying

Sam North2026-07-11T01:20:14.000Z

ffs it's not all about money. some of us just like the tradition
