The topic of sheep seems to stray into our lives frequently. Friends of Carol have bought her sheep (not live ones!) in all sorts of forms for some years. And it is the case that sheep seem to behave in a bizarre way around her. Take for example the previous photo of a “traffic jam”, which just happened as we were exloring the local hills. This one was taken on a weekend in the Llyn Peninsula. I have never seen anything like it before – and they simply ignored us while I was taking the shots. By the way, it is true, Welsh Lamb IS the best in the world!  Are sheep the most stupid animals on the planet? What purpose do they serve – other than making delicious eating? Are there any farmers out there that can answer this?
