Day 2 ...
A brisk chilly morning.. Staying dry so far! The sheep seem to be liking the weather although we are bundled up in the warmest of gear!
Soot ran out good and silent gathered the fetch. She was in good rhythm with the sheep so I figured why bother her!! You don't bring the sheep to your feet here you turn a post 50 yards in front of you! ( that has caused a few sheep to boil over into the creek). A ewe got crabby with soot at this turn but soot handled that with a quick attitude adjustment and off we went!
Rest of the course was smooth and finished with a no points off pen!!
Now it's raining.. We decided to pack it in for the day off to a steak dinner for us!!

We have started round 2 ... Yesterday set out lost my sheep back to set out and sly picked them up there behind the hill...
Guess where she ran today.. Out and over the hills well... Behind the ridge on to the let out pen... Oh shit. You can't see so all you can do is assume they are somewhere amongst the outrun bliss searching and seeking the sheep ... Or 300 sheep.. Damn it sly!
Can't really blame Sly for that one. If I remember correctly something similar happened to her last year also.
