And I thought sheep were dumb animals that follow each other around all day! Very clever indeed.

What clever animals! How to keep the sheep out of gardens?

HUMAN SOLUTION: Put up higher fences
SHEEP SOLUTION: learn to pole vault.

HUMAN SOLUTION: Dig moat around garden
SHEEP SOLUTION: built raft

HUMAN SOLUTION: Threaten them with sheep shears
SHEEP SOLUTION: give each other crazy haircuts

HUMAN SOLUTION: Leave jar of mint sauce at garden gate
SHEEP SOLUTION: RUN LIKE HELL!

Been catching up on my magazine reading today and read an article where a woman says her sheep learned to roll over the electric fencing, their wool acting like an insulator so that they don't get a shock. Perhaps sheep are clever after all! DP I'm getting visions of "Chicken Run" but with sheep!

 8) sheep with attitude, I like it, barn dances forget it, it'll be mass sheep  gatherings where the pigs keep order ,chicken bands making crop circles, beetles sing, stones roll,  frogs hoppit,  cuckoo's spit, ladybirds strut their stuff, come on folks lets gather at Bugbury.
