I saw lots of little tiny baby lambs this morning whilst out and about on the bike. They're so gorgeous and cute and I just want to give them a cuddle.

I just wish they didn't taste so bloody good the little buggers.

    Too true, lamb, chilli and coriander burgers! Perfect for pre-ride/post-ride!

    Seeing this reminds me when we were struggling :oops: to do the Sun crossword many moons ago. One clue was 'Sheep's sond' b_a__ , somebody shouted baaaa :roll:
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Try to find a good hoggit or mutton dealer, tastes just as good without the guilt :D

    Just remember, that if it wasn't for Butchers and Weavers, Farmers would have no reason to keep sheep at all. .

    I had a pet sheep at my Grandads farm years ago, I fed it with a bottle after it's mother rejected it. It's name was Lamby (imaginative I know!) One day it was there the next it wasn't!!! A few years ago I asked my mum about it...turns out we ate it!!! Haunted me ever since!!!

    We spotted this little scene last Spring as we walked into town. We'd taken Avice's new camera with us so we took a few shots. It was right by a moderately busy road.

    This one was fresh out of the womb. You can see its twin near the mother's head. By the time we walked back a couple of hours later they were both suckling. Made our day.
