So Emris and Gerry and Bernard and Rob were just standing around one day, and Emris looked at the bunch of LED lights Rob was holding, and Gerry looked at the sheep, and Bernard says, “Are you guys thinking what I’m thinking?”

I love Wales. So much.
Thanks, Zabet!
Lots of debate over whether this was a real display of ordinary shepherding, or a mix of live action and computer wizardry. Here, the shepherds speak for themselves.
Brother Amos - Knit with the saints or fry with the sinners, your feet will look great either way. Inspired by the fiery preacher in the British modern classic novel, Cold Comfort Farm, by Stella Gibbons, Brother Amos' socks feature a lace stitch pattern reminiscent of the flickering flames of hell where, according to Brother Amos, we're all doomed to "fritter and fry" for eternity.
Mrs Beeton - A free pattern, first published in Knitty.com, Mrs Beeton wrist warmers are the essence of romance, with soft ruffles that look wonderful peeking out from under a jacket sleeve, and beads that catch the light and sparkle at your wrists.
Driving Miss Daisy - Wrist-length fingerless driving gloves feature a daisy lace stitch pattern on the back of the hand, a thumb gusset for comfort, and a garter stitch wristband with single button closure for a snug and sassy fit.
Oh. That’s wonderful!
Eee! That’s just about the best thing ever. Thanks for sharing.
That was a wonderful end to my workday….I do love herding dogs…
I am still chuckling! I watched it at least 4 times. Thanks for sharing the funnies 😉
Someone else just sent me this link, and my first thought was to send it to you, but when I got to your site to send you the link, here it was!!! Great minds think alike..
Like Cindy, I rushed to your site the moment I saw this – only to see someone had beaten me to it.
Can I ask – some sites are inevitably posting comments saying this is a fake, and that sheep dogs can’t possibly have this level of control. Surely someone out there has seen more sheepdog trials than I (not hard) and can confirm that this is genuine shepherding?
We all have laughed so much. What a great effort, I just love the dogs and sheep with their lights!!!!
Talk about turning work into play! This is so much fun to watch.
Oh- still wiping the tears from my eyes- Just the right way to start my day. Thanks for posting.
That is TOTALLY awesome!! Love it!
It IS awesome… though not real. See what Catherine Friend has to say on the topic here: http://www.hitbyafarm.com/2009/04/dont-believe-it-so-i-must-take-minute.html
Oh my god, this is the greatest, cutest thing ever. I could not be more delighted!
