Welshpool visit in my '172....

Postby Fozzer » Wed Aug 20, 2008 11:37 am

Popped over to England today from my usual haunts in Sunny California, and took a short flight fron my local Airfield, Shobdon (EGBS) to Welshpool (EGCW) across the border into Wales.

My little Red and Black Cessna 172 being admired by the locals at Welshpool... :-*....>>>

Wales is the Sheep Country of the World...as Texas is the Cow State of the World.....
(Note: our white-faced Hereford Steers are to be found in Texas...Cowboy films!)...;)...!


...its where you get your Welsh Lamb for Sunday Dinner...

...and Sheep make nice company. They don't get headaches, and they don't nag you.!..;)..!

Paul....Baaaaa...... ;D....!

Interesting shot . Tells a story. Someone called the cops on that loose ram. Notice the policeman and his dog coming to the rescue before he can do any harm.

Wales, as said, is the country of the Sheep. Taking one with you makes it easier to get past the border from England to Wales as it is their country animal.
