Post by: BumbleB on Saturday 06 February 21 17:10 GMT (UK)
I'd always heard that it was "Essex girls" who had the reputation.  Wrong again - thank goodness!   :)

OY, ! Don’t you be rubbishing Lancastrians ,just because our sheep are aware of social etiquette and will join us for a drink!
If your sheep won’t join you ,well you will have to think why that might be!
Do you buy them a round or two,?or  talk too much about roast lamb, have woolly thoughts about who can and can not enter your local?
Do you fleece them for drinks ?
There could be many reasons why they do not join you.
You will have to work at it.

They had a rave on the beach last night near to where I live. Middle of winter in freezing temperatures. What idiots, 67 were fined by the police, words fail me.

They might not be Lancashire sheep. They might have strayed over the border from Yorkshire. They might be Swaledales. So far they've kept mum about where they came from and the reason for their presence.

Ooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!  Yorkshire sheep wouldn't stray!!!!!!!

Roobarb  ;D

They may have been attracted by the name of the town, Baa-cup and decided to check out that popular ovine watering place. So far, nearby Ramsbottom has no reports of sheep breaking lockdown rules. Ewes in the vicinity of that town may be better-behaved than their Bacup counterparts.

No Yorkshire sheep would venture over the border into Lancashire. All too busy slurping "Black Sheep" beer. They know the good stuff....
