On being a sheep.

Have you ever wondered

What it's like to be a sheep

Standing in a field all day

With lots of grass to eat?

You don't get any proper meals

Like fish,chips, mushy peas

You might get a few sheep nuts

If you look sad and say please.

There's also ramifications

In what happens ever year

That's when you lose virginity

And get a label in your ear.

When you've grown a lovely coat

Which is a perfect fit

They come along and cut it off

For some darn fool to knit.

Worst of all at each year end

Is the thing I hate the most

They take away our children

To make Don's Sunday roast!

What do you think sparked me off this morning? 😁xx

[SquirrelsHolt in reply to Hidden]

Morning Mr.D and i have to say I'm very impressed with Hacienda and yourself keeping up to date with the news etc.😁📰💻📻📺!

Loved your rhyme today- another good way, with my cuppa ☕, to get me started on todays doctors appointment!! Hope you and Midge are doing well.😘

[Hidden in reply to SquirrelsHolt]

Yep we are fine thanks. Good luck at the docs. 😊😘

[SquirrelsHolt in reply to Hidden]

Thats so kind of you. The worst bit will be sitting in the waiting room full of people who are coughing and sneezing left, right and centre 🤧🤒😤😷 !!!

Not so clever is it being a sheep

The stuff folks do would make you weep

You grow a nice coat in the middle of summer

Then they shear it off nows thats a bummer

Then you are dipped in something not very nice

Supposedly to cure you of some ticks and lice

Beware the ear tag coloured yellow

Life will be short for that dear fellow

Ti's a sign alas that for him it's too late

Because farmer giles has decided his fate

But with careful planning and if we act together

We can live a life of luxury with HH forever

A tribute to HungryHufflepuff xx

Thanks Skis 😊 I’m very honoured. I’ve just bought some turnips and Brussels sprouts for my sheep, they’ll be having a big feast later 🍽 I feel embarrassed saying that, because they’re eating more than you are. Well I guess that’s not difficult, Scruffy Cat must be eating more than you 😞

[skischool in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Although turnip,hidden in a heartening soup is nice they are more than welcome to my share of the Brexit sprouts.

[Izb1 in reply to skischool]

Aaaw I like this one and Im sure HH sheep are all loving life with her and being fed so well. Hope your not disappearing Mr Nobbly Knees. Any news yet??

[skischool in reply to Izb1]

Nope,seeing my lung consultant tomorrow but until i have my other investigations i don't anticipate hearing from anybody Irene,i am just another number in the system. x

[Izb1 in reply to skischool]

Oh! Skis, thought you had friends in high places cutting corners for you, blast you need urgent attention, lets hope your number is 2 and things move quickly. Get plenty of cuddles from our lovely Scruffs x

[skischool in reply to Izb1]

Only in radiology my love,i am an absolute nobody in the gastro world xx

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

I've a feeling that could change tomorrow.😁x

[skischool in reply to Hidden]

Wishful thinking Don i am off to see my respiratory consultant in wythenshawe tomorrow unless of course he can be persuaded to put his bronchoscope to better use. x

[Hacienda in reply to skischool]

Hope all goes ok today Carino. Will be waiting for your Update and Good News I Hope. Besitos. XXX C.

[skischool in reply to Hacienda]

Don't think there will be anything to update Carino,we can't proceed with anything until this gastro issued is settled it would be too dangerous,just hoping to get a look at his last CT and get his recipe for sedation as it will all be useful info for the gastro people as we proceed.

Besitos xxxxx

[Hacienda in reply to skischool]

Still, Keeping my Fingers Crossed. I am waiting for Resp. Nurse to come to see me at Home. poorly. xxxx

[skischool in reply to Hacienda]

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Hacienda]

[Hidden]

skischool is a right 'go getter',

[skischool in reply to Hidden]

Every grasshopper has a Master in tow

To show him things he needs to know x

[Hidden in reply to Gladwyn]

I take full responsibility and have amended the last line of my post accordingly. 😉🐑🐑
