The defiance of the lambs!

Here's a nice little story from Ireland that cheered me up this morning.

A farmer in county Kerry had 17 of his sheep stolen from a field and knowing that the rustler would more than likely try to sell them of quickly he attended his local market the same day and got quite a surprise

Having handfed one lamb called 'Boyeen' when it was very young a strong bond must have formed as the lamb made a beeline for him when he entered the market and led him to the other 16 missing sheep.

Nice to see that the rustler who stole them was caught and dealt with by the courts. Apparently this is not the first time he's done it, but I suspect he will be staying well clear of young 'Boyeen' in future!

Thats a great story. Glad the hustler got caught. Now lets celebrate with something nice
..mmmmm rack of lamb with potatoes yummy!

Hope the poor wee sod doesn't end up on a plate though!

....I know, It would be a real shame if it did end up on a plate after all that. Long live the lamb!!!!
