And seriously folks, that's what I did yesterday!!
Jeremiah passed away sometime on Monday night, I was greeted by the sight of his body near the feeders in the shed when I opened it on Tuesday morning. We think that he may have succumbed to Pulpy Kidney, not helped by the possible eating of a rubber teat. I was quite upset, as he was one of my favourites.
Michael had said after Minnie that the next one was mine, so I had to deal with his body. Had no time to do anything on Tuesday, had to work all day and it was dark by the time I got home. I'd placed his body in the cardboard box and covered it with a heavy object. Yesterday morning, I dug a hole (where Minnie was burned), placed the cardboard box in it and doused it well with petrol. Then covered it with bark and sticks and lit the match.
Michael did a better job with the disposal of Minnie but if he wants to complain about my attempt, he will be appointing himself as Chief Lamb Disposer for any future occurrences. I refuse to do that ever again!!!
So our success rate is now down to 50%.
