On right now, BBC4 'Addicted to Sheep'! :laughs:

(Lumby will probably miss it, due to being at his weekly 'Sheepaholics Anonymous' meeting . . . . . . :clown: ).
It's a great programme. I have (until I loaned it out...) the DVD, and you've seen the mug. :wink:

Not this time. It did get free though.

Probably because of their natural death wish :laughs: sheep don't try very hard to get themselves free, but when you approach one it finds new energy and breaks out. :roll:

The last tangled sheep I tried to free was stuck on a stray length of barbed wire attached to a fence post. I had to give up because it was like trying to catch a sheep on the end of a big spring. A big spring with sharp spikes which it kept trying to wrap round me. I was in danger of my legs being wrapped up in the wire with a daft sheep on the end of it! :dizzy:

It's a tup's' life! A few weeks 'work' in the autumn looking after the ladies then spend the rest of the year hangin' with the lads. :grin:
