We want to be fare, to the sheep as well so we have taken their account of events into consideration when setting this up. And, our version as well of course.

Their  version

The sheep says: Yes, we are all in on this, all 16 of us. We live down Cunnamulla way where we grass on a big property.

A while ago this car drove up and parked just in front of the fence. Out came a gentleman with a drawing board. He actually talked to us but none of understood what he was saying but we sort of nodded so I presume he took that for a yes and proceeded to draw us.

As we were all standing in a line we had to look over each others shoulders to catch a glimpse of his work and we were rather pleased when he attempted to show us the result but at the same time, silly as we are sometimes, we all ran away and, by the time we stopped and turned around he was gone! Just like that! Typical artist !

Anyway,we were all in agreement that we wanted to be in on the drawing so hopefully we will see the result some time soon. Our little group of 16, (we call ourselves Six Teen Sheep) shall keep a look-out for passing tourists in case they are wearing our T-shirt.

Remember Tennessee Ernie Ford and his signature song; Sixteen Tons !

Here is the other version.

We were born one morning when the sun didn’t shine,

We stood up on shaky legs and yes, we felt fine.

We are the Six Teen Sheeps and happy as few

And love our mother, the big fat yew !
