All 41x counted - all seem well. There were 7x with messy back ends. I rang Ellie, who passed the message onto Tom. Tom and I looked them over and he's not currently concerned. I'll keep an eye over the next couple of days and will phone it in if they look any worse.

Sheep very difficult to find today- hiding from the rain means I spend longer out looking for them!

The sheep were at the Worthy rd entrance when I drove past today so counted them up. All there.

All 41 sheep counted. They're looking very big now, not sure if it's wool or chub!

All sheep counted. Normally they come flying over for food but today they went for a more leisurely stroll.

Sat 2nd and Sun 3rd November
All 41x counted, all look well. Inquisitive of me and getting more confident, but I still can't get close enough to easily read ear tags. No sign of lameness on either day.
