Rock Star in Paddocks

Two Paddocks

A Lesson in Charisma – you got it or you ain’t.

Our new South Suffolk ram arrived today, George GleeGun. In the tradition of The Ram Name, he is called  after a bona fide star – in this case  ex-Wallabies Captain George Gregan, now playing in Japan where he is known as ‘”George Gleegun, Lugby Regend.”

At H.Q., we are not at all recovered from the shock of YouGo Weaving popping his clogs on the job only 24 hours ago. The ewes, however, have seemingly taken it all in their sheepy stride, and YouGo’s  passing has gone quite unremarked.

George GleeGun arrived in style in his personalised trailer, and was immediately mobbed by adoring fans, they having forgotten the previous incumbent overnight. On alighting, he set to work immediately, getting on with the job.

We wish him all the luck in the world. The vet has issued George a caution not to overdo things...

George has all the charisma of a Beatle on tour, and the girls go nuts just at the sight of him.

A true professional, George wastes no time  in getting straight down to  business.
