Una, Tara and Leia looking none the worst for their adventure After months of waiting for the Blue Tongue vaccine and mortalities getting ever closer (the next village a few days ago) it finally arrived today. As it has to be administered by the vet for certification I had to take the sheep to St Girons.
In the morning I enlarged my Heath Robinson sheep transporter to take 3 sheep, then with some help from John, I loaded the them. I made two journeys to St G with three sheep each time to get them vaccinated. It's a hell of a job as each sheep has to be caught then carried into the back of the trailer (they are heavy now - perhaps 40 kg each). Each received two injections but unfortunately there's a third injection in three weeks time so I'll have to do the whole thing again.
In fact now I think of it - don't think I announced the new sheeps' names: Mini, Leia and India

i cant believe that you called a bastard pykie sheep after my missus!
India (the sheep) has horns that after curling around, stick straight out like the handlebars on a Harley-Davidson or Indian motocycle. As Harley and David are blokes names, I called her India. Pure coincidence that it's the same name as your India - though there is a passing resemblence!
