Can anyone advise me about a sticky situation? i live in very rural west of ireland, very happily, except that our neighbours are sheep farmers, and their lambs have very recently worked out how to get around the mostly-substantial fence surrounding my (newly seeded, newly planted!)garden, across our lawn and potentially onto the road. Is the onus on me or them to reinforce the fence gap?
Any advice welcome (besides moving away)

Either fix your fence or fix yourself some Easter lamb, I'd say. (Joke! Not serious!)

If your fence isn't adequate, then its up to you to fix it I'm afraid. We used to have the same problem with cattle back when I was a child in the Weshhht! We had to build a wall and put in a cattle grid.

Talk to your neighbour and tell him what's happening.

Those lambs are his capital, he'll make sure that they can't disappear on him.
