They're out till Christmas now whatever the weather.
 
I'd have probably shot the sheep farmer that asked to let sheep anywhere near my dairy farm.....
Your a calmer more diplomatic man than me, I'd have shot them if he told me they were here till march.
Well i do like the sound of threatening the sheep with some mint sauce, but I now seem to be lambing them for him. Told me they weren't due til mid March, today there seems to be few lambs I have seen running about. Phoned him today to tell him and all I got was "I might pop up in a day or 2 to check there alright will you go and have a look at them and give me a call back if there is any problems, but when I last came to see them on Friday they were all alright" :banghead::banghead::rolleyes::oops:

Sell the lambs as pets. 20 quid in the local markets, teach him a lesson. FFD some sheep farmers make the rest of them look bad, and wonder why dairy farmers round here are nervous about allowing them in.
