Cool Up North

Save Our Sheep

Next time you townies are out and about enjoying the countryside, no doubt through the window of a car, look out for upside down sheep. Apparently, your sheep is top heavy, especially when its coat is particularly wet.

This leads to a propensity to falling over and rolling into a position with its feet in the air, a state from which it is unable to recover. Unlike a beetle or insect, it has no wing shell or wings to open to assist recovery, nor can it arch its body.

So, it just lies there looking and, no doubt, feeling hopeless and forlorn. This is where you come in. Simply get out of your car, roll sheep onto side and it will scramble upright and, with a baa of thanks, amble on its way. You’ll feel great (when you’ve washed your hands), and a place in heaven will be assured.

Lonely Hearts

At a time when loads of friends and family are celebrating ruby weddings and stuff, spare a thought for those without a squeeze. This week’s parish magazine has just the one request.
