Did a round of the farm then set up on a hill, spotted my bould ewe heading off up the land, with ONE lamb in tow. No you fupping don't. Great craic trying to coax a ewe down the land by torch light. Got my foot caught in a fence crossing it, ewe knocked me and landed on the rifle. Much inventive cussin' , effing and two fences later later I get them set up in shed for the night. Pencil, paper, drawing pins, 100 yards, big bang, discover rifle sights are out cos of the fall, retire home........ But I'm still at 200% lambing, all ewe lambs I figure I'm ahead!

Will have to check if anything is loose, or in the immortal words of Morgan Freeman in Unforgiven, "bent". Been out a few nights and mornings now and not seen one fox ever. I haven't made up my mind whether that's a good or bad thing yet. No deer in my area, no forestry for them here, nearest probably about 20-25 minutes away.

Conmaicne Mara wrote: » Yeah that's my thinking too to be honest, it's a matter of time. I fondly remember a period of a few years where I had 0 lamb losses, have always strived to attain that run of events again, not easy!

Conmaicne Mara wrote: » Oops, no, the deer won't come this way as there's not enough cover for them. As far as I remember there's a bit of forestry/small woods your way.

Arrived at pool to be told lessons have been cancelled as coach didnt show up:mad::mad: Young lad had been excited all week as it was his first lesson. I let him have a go in pool before we came home.
