My cat is sad because he’s just a small town cat, living in a lonely world - he took the midnight train going anywhere.

My cat is sad because he can get no sense at all out of one of my other cats, who is stoned out of his mind on strong Jamaican weed.

Calendars 2014

Deepest Winter. The bleakness and desolation is felt most keenly during this harshest and most severe of months. Snow, ice and blizzards mean that the ewes are entirely reliant upon the shepherd providing their sustenance. The difficult terrain may

involve hay bales having to be carried on foot to the furthest outlying flocks. The unborn lambs are beginning to require more nutrition, so it is vital to keep the ewes in peak condition and hay will be supplemented with high protein pellets.

February 2015

Walling & Clearing the Meadows. The meadows are now cleared of sheep and left to grow a crop of hay. The traditional herb-rich wildflower meadows will provide the winter feed for the flock. The snow

and lashing gales of winter are the cause of many gaps in the dry stone walls and it is now that time is spent repairing the boundaries and making them stockproof.

Valentine’s Day

Hay Time. Should glorious sunshine prevail and the promise of a settled spell in the weather, then the task of haymaking becomes the priority. The grass in the meadows is mown and turned daily to be

Graffeg 01554 824000 www.graffeg.com

baked by the sun until it is dry enough to be turned into small compact hay bales.

These are then stored in the outlying stone barns ready for the wintertime when food is scarce.

Show Time. As summer draws to a close, it is a busy time for a shepherd. Flocks are gathered in, lambs weaned and perhaps a select few sheep will be taken to the local show. It is a chance to showcase your

Father’s Day

animals, as with sale time fast approaching, all eyes will be looking out for who has the best sheep in the district.
