Well lets be honest, your a Welsh* farmer and you find a man doing things with your sheep, would you arange a quiet booting or tell the police and have it spread across the media that the jokes about the Welsh are true?

I'd get the shotgun out. "Yes, officer, there was a dog off the lead, worrying the sheep".

A couple of years ago there was a juvenile convicted of of similar offences with sheep around Uffington. His name was never published for the obvious legal reasons, shortly afterwards we noticed the following daubed on the back of a road sign on the A420 nearby: "**** **** Sh**s Sheep". I don't remember the kid's name, probably best that I don't! When I was brought up in Wales I never heard of this kind of thing, it seemed to be an English obsession when I moved to Wiltshire 15 years ago. I came to the conclusion that the Severn Bridge tolls are actually a payment of Sheep rental for the tourists....... Cheers, Bill.
I'm surprised they persuaded the sheep to testify against him.

Are you implying that the sheep enjoyed it?? :-)
I was once walking and going past a field I spotted a yokel grabbing a sheep from behind, and putting its back legs into his wellington boots. My curiosity being aroused, I shouted at the yokel, "Hey there, my good man, are you going to shear that sheep?"
Imagine my perplexity when he shouted back, "No, I am not! Naff off and find one of your own....."
Boom! Boom!
