In which Tori gets two sheep and a pony

Last night I went to a farm to pick up my two new wether lambs. Their names are Wallace and Gromit. They are about three months old and are Wiltipolls which is a breed of sheep which shed their wool so I dont have to get them shawn. They are currenly living in the dog run and at the moment are introducing themselves to Dad's four calves. The sheep are not very tame yet. They will come and talk to you if you are on the other side of the fence but as soon as you go through the gate they run away. Oh well Ill get them tame soon enough.
This morning Mum and I are going to Gawler to buy some sheep food and collers for them. That way I can tell Wallace from Gromit without checking their ear tags. And also if they get lost people will know they are pets.
Later this afternoon I am going to Julia and Susan's house to go for a ride and then pick up Apples. It has been a very exciting week. Ill post some pics once i have taken them.
