    Always reminds me of a nasty greek island holiday i went on. We all got bussed to a remote beach for a BBQ, you know, one of those expensive rep. excursions.

    There was a hut on the beach where they did all the cooking and there was a cute little lamb tethered outside. We all sat around drinking and watching the sun set, but feeling slight concern for the animal’s fate.

    Then one of the chefs came with a cleaver in hand and took this creature inside. This raised a few eyebrows and one or two said they no longer felt hungry.

    He emerged a few minutes later with blood on his hands and no “lamby”!!. This shocked everyone and a lot of the women were in tears.

    Then a few minutes later, the joker brought lamby back out again, much to the relief of the punters.

    Well I guess they had to entertain themselves some how.

    I did wonder how long it would be until lamby bought it though!

    I love lambing live – got to see my very first RL lamb be born this year, was a twin. Missed the first one come out but arrived just as number two came into the world. Was very pleased to see it for real!

    And coming in just a few months time, new to BBC2:

    ‘Lambing Death’ – all the lambs you knew and loved, killed for your viewing pleasure. Stock up on mint sauce and twiddle yer sheep-shaped keyrings in front of highlights of their shitty little lives.

    I was lambing live yesterday afternoon.

    Meet Bill and Ben 😀

    I’ve told them to get a move on with that grass but it’s a big field and they’re only small!

    I love it.
    Was disappointed they didn’t have ‘herdwick’ they’re my favourite.

    Stayed on a farm once when they were lambing near Dalby forest, yes the farmer’s wife cooked us last years lamb for tea.

    Alphabet – Bill and Ben are gorgeous, what breed are they?

    I do tend to think (perhaps from my veggi point of view) that it gives a rather rosy view of farming, sort of propaganda for the farming industry. Things would come across a rather differently if they followed the lambs through the slaughterhouse. Just because it’s out of sight doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Depends on your point of view I suppose but it feels rather disconnected.

    Bunnyhop – They’re Shetland.

    Ours are for lawn mowing only. Not for eating.

    PJay they did the slaughter house thing last year, I suspect they will do the same again this year.

    LOL.

    Saw lots of lambies in N Wales over weekend, shame I didn’t have my 2yo daughter with me.

    Well, well done to them if they did, I didn’t realise that. I think that it’s good to give the whole picture, it’s more balanced that way and I do think that the little baa lambs gamboling in the field view is rather different to the mechanised slaughter house reality. ‘Tis just a point of view though.

    I do like lambs but I have to say, young calves are pretty sweet too. Locally there’s a field with a number of Scottish hairy coos in (a bit out of place for Somerset) and we’ve seen a couple of new borns there – amazingly cute.

    Happy animals are tasty animals. Showing animals which are well farmed and well slaughtered should, I hope, cement the idea that people should buy quality meat at all times.

    Some of the lambs over Brechfa way looked superbly happy/tasty!

    Who said working with animals and young children is hard?
    I think Kate handled the situation very well.
