Having taken it up myself in September, I find it addictive. Like the shepherd photos and notice he's not using collies which are de rigueur over here. When I was growing up my parents had a holiday home in West Cork with about 9 hectares, so kept sheep on it to keep the grass down.? The flock certainly were good lawnmowers, but went down with so many diseases - foot rot, liver fluke, fly strike, etc., etc.... - that we all became experts on sheep ailments, and handy at rebuilding dry stone walls and broken sheep fences. I also became fairly useful at tail docking and castration - skills that I don't seem to need in Monkstown these days :-) Douglas On 29/04/2019 18:20, Nathan Wajsman wrote: > My wife had surgery on Friday and was discharged on Saturday, so I have > taken today off also to be with her at home.
