St. George's Day!

April 23, 2009 16:22

Today is the day the lambs celebrate their hero: St George – hooray – let’s hear it for St. George! Legend has it that George slew a dragon to save a princess. Well that’s all well and good – but let’s get to the crux of the matter. St George slew the dragon that only moved onto princess eating when all the sheep had gone.

In honour of the big “G” the lambs and sheep have all dyed their fleeces with big red crosses and they are having a day of non-stop grass eating and trying to belch fire. The farmer will be miffed about the fleeces but by the time he finds out they will be too partied out to care!
