Britain's Loneliest Sheep

[Scrumpy]

In my youth we didn't read the newspapers.. We just wiped our bums on them..
and ate our fish n' chips in them .
Make of that what you will.. 

You clearly didn't spend so much of your youth as I did, reading tabloid newspapers.  😬😬

How can a sheep be a spectacle? What nonsense. When you've seen one you've seen them all.

Not necessarlity. I saw one trying to climb up into a bush once. All I could see was a sheep's head through some leaves.

Dex is a later generation from most here. We were posh and had bog paper. Mind you it was that bloody awful Izal stuff.

Ah.  Izal.  So good for wrapping over a comb and making a tune.

[klondike]

It's about all it's good for. Surpised you remember it. The separate sheets in school maybe?

I hope not in that order!
I suspect that it might affect the taste.

Brown sauce?

Sorry🫣

Well, I may be wrong but I think she should be with her own kind. Maybe introduce her to another sheep and see how it goes. If all's well then she could join a small flock.

Yes.  Just let her live out her life with other sheep.  That sounds the best idea.
I don't think that sheep are territorial animals and would reject a new member of the flock.

Poor girl's probably spent the last three years thinking "The others'll be along in a minute".

I know the feeling

She must have been part of a flock at one time. I can't help wondering how she got down there and was ok, the cliffs at Bora are pretty steep and you would not get there without injury of some sorts, even a small one. I wonder if she was stolen from her field and dumped.

[Alex]

I'm just glad she's been rescued and seems to be taking it all in her stride.
She looks great after her hair cut 

[dextrous63]

Bet she's absolutely freezing now!!

[Raven]

Got this clip of her rescue, she looks so different now with her coat off. She has such a sweet face, she's lovely.
