Pardon the off topic, but if there was anywhere extreme sheepherding would be enjoyed, it would be here. And afterall, this was in Wales, so I think it belongs on the Fforum. Enjoy:

not convinced about how much is actually sheep and how much is digital imagery, but it is still great fun!

It seems to have disappeared from the link originally posted by PrincessP, so try here

Just found out today the link died so came here armed with youtube links. Thank you SkidMarks and robert for putting in the patch!
Even if it is digitally enhanced, the whole idea is clever so I give it thumbs up. Hoping it is not enhanced though.

It is wonderful, but in the "big sheep" bit at the start, for example, the legs seem......

Like, Mulder, though, I want to believe.

Skids, I hope you're not suggesting that anyone would put something on the NET that was fake!?

Well, I am not certain about stories that a 2nd Bush was president, but otherwise, I think the interweb is mostly true. Just look at Wikipedia.

Well, according to Wikipedia, Grace Cossington Smith was both a Vampire and ate the Second World War. Maybe the oil paint is to blame.

I saw and I liked it.

Just think, if we could get a decent mob lit up, not the measley hundred or so in Wales, we could create the world's largest video screen so astronauts could watch 'Biggest loser' or some such essential viewing from orbit.
