I says to rest of us sheep in field, "Why don't we go out for the day too". So we got together in a huddle in corner of the field and had a little think.
After some de-liber-ra-tion, I broke that word up as it's a rather long word for a sheep...the white sheep, her name is Snowdrop, came up with the idea of going to the seaside. Snowdrop said "I know, why don't we go to Bangor."
So we all took a vote and it was decided that's what we would do.
We meandered over to the charabanc pushing our way through a hole in the hedge to get to it. First we had to evict the hens and clean it up a little...okay, who's kidding so it was a lot as it had only been used as a hen house from as long as I can remember.

Snowdrop was to push the button to start the engine up as she was going to steer, I would work the pedals and Bronwyn took control of the gear stick...simple!

"Are we there yet ?" Came a chorus of bleats and sighs.
Well we hadn't moved a fraction so it was a bit silly to reply to that to say the least.
"Start the engine." I baa-rd. Nothing happened. So we got

"What does that mean, that writing on the road ?" baa-rd Snowdrop.
I got up from the bottom of the charabanc where I was working the pedals to have a look, just for a second like. "It says Araf !" says I " That means slow!"
"oooOOOooo !" exclaimed all the sheep all at once. Quite impressed they was as I could read...well only a bit but I'm not telling see.
Faster and faster we went. The charabanc made an awful
