Ouch ouch ouch. Counting multiple bruises to legs and hands tonight. You know how you can bend over backwards to help some people, but they can be so ungrateful no matter what you do. We'll sheep are the bloody same. Miss Ffffffin Prolapse has spent the last fortnight running round the pen acting like she's never seen me before, so frightened. Whilst mother hood mellows some sheep others turn into raging mad b!!!!!tches. Yes there was much fffin and blindin. She was as bad as a ram. Protective of her babies for sure. Frightened of hitting me she was not.
6 lambed, 11 lambs so far. Got caught out today. Everybody went out. One lambed out in the field 2 days early. She would have been coming in tomorrow night.
One that was due last Tuesday still hasn't lambed. She has an udder but nothing to big currently. No other date for her so really is guess when im due. In fact there's 3 now im going to be guessing. I've never been in this predicament. All thanks to the crows eating the raddle crayons.

I remember you mentioned the crows eating the raddle crayons a while ago. Fancy them doing that. And annoying for you.
Took a fall tonight, wish I could say it was from falling off the horse. Unfortunately not, it was courtesy of an over enthusiastic Quin trying to get the sheep in. I tell him to walk up so he walks up, rushes in at the ewe with her lambs. She turns around to try and whack him, he dodges out of the way runs straight into my legs, sending me flying up in the air. He didn't actually run out of the way quick enough and I ended up landing on top of him. Scrabbling to get to my feet he's also trying to scrabble out from underneath me. I now have a nice bruised elbow and I'm telling myself he was only trying to help.
Black elbow this morning. Thought I'd got away with the hip when I stood up last night. This morning though my bad hip is complaining with every step. Rubbed in a load of magnesium gel.
So annoying as my hip had improved recently and I'd gone back to doing my longer walks.

So annoying isn't it. Falling off when you're having a nice ride is one thing, but falling or getting pushed is another! I hope you heal soon and your hip is okay. I quite like Algesal though its prescription only (I think) and I'm still using some that my friend gave me (I know you shouldn't give meds away lol).
Quin clearly seeks forgiveness, I'm putting the beds down tonight, suddenly realized he's disappeared then I hear a bleat in the yard. He's only gone and got all the sheep up on his own without any assistance, without me telling him too. Only trouble is I don't need them in for another hour, just typical.
