Just had a wonderful hour wandering round Minch.. it's only 10 miles from Wotton-under-Edge, where one of my forbears possibly hails from. i found the following on one site.... Village centre hotel. Australian landlord has an extensive collection of sheep farming items in non-smoking bar. That was 1995 - if the same landlord is there he could know some OZ shearing songs. Cheers - Sam in NZ - so can't join you. |

Spent 18 months in Wellington - Hataitai and Ngaio - saw a lot of scenery and sheep - and got tired of the sheep sausages very quickly. What Folk Clubs do you have near you? |
