  • she romanticises it. i remember punding and building dykes with my mum in the earliest of my memories. its a tough life. i do miss it though. the sheep that jump the highest are called loopers. these sheep will dig under the gates and i have even seen the use flotsam like rope and crates that have washed too close to the dyke as a step up over. once i saw them jumping over using the backs of other sheep.
