To respond to one of the responses above:
Wild haggis are not sheep, and they never were sheep. Wild haggis are lovable creatures who should be given good homes.

Not expecting an invite, Sam, so don’t think we’ll see you there, though hopefully we’ll catch you at some point when you’re over the pond. I like your Sheep Stories by the way!

Anna, great link! Ta. Poor little sheep have lost their heft and don’t know where to go! Apparantly leaving them alone til they come home wagging their tails behind them won’t help either. I love the idea of all these farmers trying to get into the mind of a sheep to teach them the heft. Penetrating the skull will be the hardest part.

Kim, you mean you fell for that old chestnut? Nononono – they come back as jackalopes, bounding and horny.

Dear Squiffy Fluffag, are you going to Ian M’s wedding in September? (The 8th I think.) I think I’m coming over for that. I’d love to see you all and meet wee Roise!

Pat, no bank holiday here, but Memorial Day soon, to kick off summer. Something awful is happening to the bees. For real. They’re disappearing and nobody knows why. It’s called Catastrophic Colony Collapse or something and we’re all in big trouble if bees aren’t pollinating. We don’t have any substitute for them. They also get disorientated by cell-phone signals and fly the wrong way and stuff.

Apprentice, I didn’t know that. I’m not surprised to learn though that the ewes are the keepers of the knowledge though. The ewes have it, as the ayes often do. But not the Yous or the Is. The ewes. With their eyes. Cheers for the link. Off for a gander at the heft.

Lovely story telling as ever Sam. I love the middle class sheep ref, that made me chuckle.

I was reading about a shepherd the other day, can’t now temember where, but he said the mama hill sheep know all the best pasture and guide the flock around, especially in lean times – pretty much like elephant matriachs do. So foot and mouth was tragic as it wiped out the knowledge at a stroke, a bit like killing of all London cabbies who’ve done the knowledge!

I remember now the skill is called “the heft”. Here’s a wee Cumbrian bit on it:
