Aches and Pains

I've spent the last 3 days helping to drench sheep. I'm aching in places I didn't know I had.
Todays total: 2500 of the woolly buggers, I'm fair knackered.

 

Surely drenching sheep just involves standing still with a hose?

 

I wish.

 

You need a fireman! Calling @poptop2 we have an emergency! Sheep need drenching with your hose! Don't forget the helmet!

 

Thinking the Kelpie did more work than you Don....I mean just look at the pics.

 

Can't see pics. My exes dad was a sheep farmer, drenching is done orally here (worming) do you mean dipping?

 

That's why I'm aching, fighting the buggers to get the gun in their mouths, they normally dip later in the year.
This was for Barbers Pole Worm (http://www.lbn.org.au/2015/01/16/barbers-pole-warning-for-sheep-producers/)

 

I feel your pain @Terrordales for I've done two days in the woods logging, with no tractor as the idot frenchman got it stuck in the mud a month ago along with a bigger second one trying to get the first one out. Wheelbarrowing Los across wet uneven boggy ground is no fun.

 

Wheelbarrowing logs across muddy ground is nothing compared to shopping at Morrisons using a trolley with a dodgy wheel. The effort needed to stop the donuts falling out is unbelievable.

 

does a bear log in the woods?
how's the knees old man?

 

You've been spying again, haven't you?
Anyway it's only the attractive ones we go for.

 

You win.

 

Not seen any bears but I have.
Knees getting older fast.

 

at least you had a good time getting um

 

I'm sure they sell Barbers Pole Worm in Waitrose.

 

Yes but its the good stuff from New Zealand

 

They all look rootable after a few Tooheys....

 

Steady on lad, he's not a Welshman!
