Sheep a plenty - in Ireland we have two sheep per person, four million people, eight million sheep - the problem is, it is Christmas season, and the sheep you see all around have all had at least half a dozen pints of Guinness through the night.

Could'nt you guys send Santa and Rudo over here for a slow flyby[&o]

I went to the lake for my morning jog today - the model is still there, and has shifted posture yet again. Each night the south-easterly gales turn it around so that it dutyfully points to the north star. Come morning and the north-westerly gusts turn it around again to point very obscenely at the joggers, fishers, sailers and the picknickers down below.

One reason why I have never told anyone that it is my model[sm=bananahead.gif]
