Here are the great photos that Al took of our shearing day on Saturday.
The shearing crew:
Here are the photos I took:
I prepared assorted foods from recipes I have collected and wanted to try. It was sort of an afternoon tea that we had after the shearing was completed.
Here are the 1800 chocolate tarts (really yummy).
Here are the baked lemon puddings.
Here are the Yorkshire tea cakes.
There was also Paul Hollywood’s ultimate sausage rolls,
cucumber sandwiches, 1747 Cheshire pork pies,
blueberry lime layer cake, Bakewell pudding,
and Banbury tarts (Grampa’s favorite),
The Earl Grey, lemon and blueberry cake and mini quiches didn’t really turn out well. I had 4 different types of tea as well.
Here are my photos of the sharing:

Eliz brought over some chickens for me. Here are Red Leghorn chickens, 3 roosters and 3 hens.
And 10 assorted chicks.
The sheep now sheared and back on the grass.
Apart from the sheep, a good time was had by all.
