Jack,
could it be that there were a few sheep around on Kinderscout.


On a more serious and important note the Beeb appear to be going through a "folky" phase. This Friday evening they have a programme on BBC 4 Television "Rock Island Line" and the recording that REALLY gave the folk scene a kick start here in he UK. Bily Bragg is presenting. I am not a fan of his music but I have to say he did an excellent job with his recent book.
The following Friday there is on the same channel a programme on Woody Guthrie and I don't believe that is a repeat of any previous programme.
