7th June 2011

I sheared the last sheep on the weekend, with the help from Denise.  It made a massive difference having someone holding the sheep. First, I tried to shear them on their back, then I tried them standing up, which was so much easier and kinder on your back. Below is a photo of the last ewe I sheared, and I have to say I am quite proud of it.



Now I can not wait till next year, to try again....




We are sending all the wool up to Hull to Pat who will work her magic. I know what my family will be getting for xmas..





The Elderflower cordial has be resting for over 24 hours, we know need to filter off all the solids and bottle. It smells delicious!
