Glad to hear your wife is ok, and back playing bridge, Nathan. 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 :-)

She is doing fine, and has already returned to her usual routine of lunchtime beer, followed by a siesta, and tonight she is out playing bridge. So all is well on that front. This morning I took a brisk 50 km bike ride to Jijona and Busot, and about 10 km from home on my way back, I came across one of those sights that I love about living here. Three images.
