A European Union proposal for an electronic identity system for sheep has been rejected by Welsh MP Mark Williams. 'We already have a robust system of identifying a species. If it's woolly and goes "baa", it's a sheep,' he said in a parliamentary question.

Speaking of the welsh and sheep. I was walking along the Malverns today and noticed the Welsh had sent out a scouting party to provide recon along the border. Check out the photo forum later tonight or tomorrow for a full update ;) ;D
