Great pics and good to see someone enlightening the ones who are not country minded and have no idea what goes on. There's still a lot of people i believe think milk comes out of a bottle. I am a spinner and know that there's somewhere you can get fleeces carded up Dubbo way. Was wondering if you can steer me in the right direction please. Hello!

I thought of you and your shearing post. The shearing shed still stands. I read it last week but was so busy I didn't get to comment. I didn't know you had a real working farm either. thanks for sharing. We spent Easter on a small farm near Dubbo but they haven’t had sheep for a while. I thought of you and your shearing post.

I guess that's really my fault not yours. It occurred to me that I don't talk a real lot about the day to day farming stuff and that maybe people would be interested in having a little sneak peak occasionally into what our life is like. :) Tracey.

I didn't realise that you had a 'real', working farm. I thought it was just a cute, hobby kind of farm. This has been a very enlightening post!! Ok, I’m officially a goose.
