Sheep Shearing

Shopping again with driver Rosie. Also still trying to get a replacement car hitch for the big trailer – the one I got yesterday had the bolt holes in almost the right place, but not quite.

Marcus and shearer Lachie were in action this morning; all sheep and lambs now shorn of their heavy wool. I did wonder what Bangle was barking about – it went on a long time – but obvious when I got up as the sheep were being pushed into the yards from the holding yard where they’d been overnight.
