Damn, you have blonde sheep? All we get down under are plain old black or white. I'm seriously jealous.

Black Face
 

Not only that, our blondes have black faces. Now that has caused some confusion all round after closing time--darkness and a few whiskies and... No wonder Scottish sheep leg it if you so much as look at them! You'll never catch one in your wellies mate. Linzi.

...where the hell is that blonde wool-coat, damn...i know it's here somewhere (sounds of frantic scrabbling in a closet!)...:funmeteryes:

Closet?
 

Closet? You'd better come out! Linzi.

That depends on how horny I am and how sexy your scottish sheep are... I reckon I could move pretty fast for a blonde ewe.

Visit
 

You should go and have a look. It's one of the few countries that has a lot in common with parts of New Zealand. It is an awesome place to tour on two wheels. The distances in the highlands between towns leaves a feeling of grandeur to the views. Few public conveniences it is true but the roads have clearly marked passing places--nice touch! Come to think of it there are also signs showing sheep. Thought-provoking or what? Linzi.

Nah, the Public Conveniences are very common - they're walking around, often they're called Baaabara or Maaary! And the Authorities have even provided places where you make passes at them... i grew up in Cumbria and we had to run like hell after them for our Fun, bah!!:stormy:

What has happened to this thread?
 

I don't know quite how we got so involved with sheep... I think it's Alex le Brit's fault - he started it!:innocent:

Ahem
 

For a change of subject, there are some lovely Alpakas in Sussex and you can even rent one for a picnic-I jest not! But they spit!!! Linzi.

That's a shame, I prefer my Alpacas to swallow.

Yuk!
 

Ok I give up. That takes some beating. Linzi.

Ahh, don't be like that, I was having such fun.

These Alpacas seem more refined than some women i've known! But the Kiwi's aren't so daft, why do they have the world's highest sheep/bloke ratios - so they don't have to try too hard catching the Wooly delights. And don't forget that most Kiwi blokes are originally Scots, so that explains their outlook, he, he...?c?

Hairy Question
 

Well, on one hand Scots sheep being so obviously scared would imply either a lot of attention from the local lads or perhaps poor technique. Whisky again? The time to worry is when there are a lot of Kiwis seen with long, wavy blonde hair. Scots are still safe on that count. Are there many sheep in Iceland? Linzi.

No more animal talk ...
 

:offtopic: Ok, this thread has seriously lost the plot. I think we're going to have to :ban: sheep, alpaca (or any other beastiality) talk from now on... I don't want any complaints! :stormy: If we must discuss such things, maybe we should start another thread: "Sheep or Alpacas - which is the better lay?"


Anyway, to get back on track: There have been some good points about the so call "bummy" life style, and I have formed the conclusion that I shouldn't be ashamed. As long as my life is fun and rewarding for me, and doesn't do any damage to other people or the environment, then I will keep doing it. I am a person who breaks the mould, and it has never embarrassed me not to be rich, with a family and surrounded by lots of nice things. I don't need that kind of life.

Here's an example of a "Bum": There's a fellow on the South Island of NZ who got sick of the modern way of life (ON THE SOUTH ISLAND! Imagine what he would have been like in New York?), so he packed up his meagre belongings and went bush. He has been living in his tent somwhere down near Fjordland, I think, for the past 10 years. He hunts for food, sells the odd possum hide for money so he can buy toothpaste etc. He does no harm to anybody and he has almost cut himself off for society completely... Respect. He has no job, doesn't pay taxes and probably smells, but so what?
