Taking advantage of some sunshine Anne and I pulled out the remaining bags of raw wool (and some that we had skirted and picked over once already), and did a final sort, then divided that remaining wool into storage bags.
This time it was certainly easier - the wool was less 'greasy'* - I suspect it is because the lanolin etc has hardened up somewhat - that in itself may mean I may have have to wash a couple more times to melt/dissolve the grease and loosen the dirt. We were also VERY fussy - saving only the best of the locks.
It still resulted in 7 bags of wool (about a fleece each).
