Sheep Investigator Wanted..........
hrh_dave:
Could anybody help us with a spot of detective work........
We currently have a small flock of sheep being grazed at Ampleforth, North Yorks and we are hoping to transport them up to our new home in the wilds of the Highlands (Scotland to the geographically challenged).
We aren't looking for transport, we just need to know if they are still there, as a friend of a friend seems to think they have been sold from under us and the chap who is looking after them is not one for answering his phone. So is there anyone who would be in the Ampleforth area in the next 6 weeks, who could possibly do a drive by?
As you can imagine, an 800 mile round trip for us would cost an arm and a leg. So if anybody happens to be in the vicinity we would be forever in your debt!

You are in luck. I just looked at the meadow on Google earth and its full of sheep :-)
Seriously though if anyone does go look at the meadow how do they tell if the sheep are your sheep?
