Parked in entrance to the wood by the cross roads. The field was now full of stubble turnips which were being grazed by very muddy sheep. one of the sheep had a terrible cough - I knew how it felt. Farmer turned up to move the electric fence so a quick exit was required. | Herbert Anchovy | 04/03/2015 |
