    Why can no one from outside the town say this simple word without making a sheep noise? It makes me want to knife them up the bumhole.

    here's another why is it when someone ask you where you come from you tell them and they repeat it making a sheep noise when you know for a fact you never did when you said it

    I must admit I find the one where I tell someone where I am from originally the converation often goes
    me - I am from Wombwell
    sheep - Wooombwell - Never heard of it where is that near
    me - its near Barnsley
    sheep - Baaaarnsley - Arthur Skargill Michael Parkinson .....

    but when I tell them I live in Farnham - I dont get Faaaaarnham said back to me

    its wierd

    by the way when did Y Goch stop posting Sheep Friday - havent seen one for a while
