sheep were due to be shorn yesterday evening and the shearer so wife asked if we could take them up to their place in our trailer. Usually the shearer comes to us but everything was set up at their place, only 1/4 mile up the road. Problem - OH's car, the only one with a tow bar, had just died.
Don't worry, he will come to you.
Later than expected shearer a mum and dad turn up with their landy and said they could take our trailer up for us.
Problem no 2 - our usually well behaved girls, Ryelands, broke out of their pen and legged it up the field.
4 of us were chasing them round. They were hot and bothered but wouldn't give up and we were the same. Finally funnelled them into a corner and got them into the trailer after about 45 mins. We would have been good candidates for You've been framed.
Anyway, the girls got their haircuts and look very nice. Farmer said what nice sheep they are and would be prepared to buy any lambs from us next year if we want him to.
