OT: the Buster Horn Situation

I'll reserve this post for anything to do with the Buster horn situation, for any that are interested.

Current state: coming along nicely!



Hopefully shearing time soon! I'll post more when that happens. The boys look quite different after the wool comes off.

Still no shearing yet. To

Still no shearing yet. To shear you really need at least two dry days together for the wool to get dry enough, and with the advent of summer Wales has reverted to type and the rain is keeping everyone damp. Meanwhile here's another pic of Buster and his horns so far!



I was working on the visual synthesiser today and definitely thinking of the forest. Need to get back in one of these nights, I'm missing it.

Back in the forest today

Back in the forest today after a few days' absence (had a lovely time, I've missed it so! Usual writeup to follow tomorrow).

Today was the hottest day in the UK so far this year, and also SHEARING DAY at last! So glad to get my boys out of their winter coats! And as promised here are a couple of pics of our boy Buster with his new haircut.



Coming for his first post-shearing skritchies. With all that itchy wool gone you can skritch the entire surface of the sheep freely. This causes the sheep to melt into a puddle of bliss <3. (That's his pal Lucky sitting in the grass to the left).



Here you can see his new streamlined appearance and the beauty of his wonderfully asymmetric horns <3
