Sunday 14th January

I am not convinced that my sheep counting is very good but Tina and I counted 60 sheep on Saturday and I counted 60 today. Today there were 23 Whitefaced Woodlands at the top Western most point of the downs and I counted 37 at the bottom of the path while feeding. In fairness I did count 37, then 38 then 37 again, so like I say it could be lack of practice. I had a good look around the rest of the compartment but saw no sign of a lone sheep. All the sheep seems in good health. There was no sign of ice and I topped up the water.

I have adjusted Gate No.5 and moved the latch so it shuts properly. Otherwise general path clearance.
