As a win is a win what ever the sport is , it attracted the media attention , this farmer was interviewed by WBCC and the interviewer first question was ,”what made you decide to engage in this activity was it of choice ”
The elderly sheep farmer replied “it was environmentally induced on me, as I became older , the pegs weaker and slower , the sheep younger and faster, the nights up in the hills became lonelier I had time to discover new skills”
The interviewer “so was it a foreclosed conclusion this win”
“not at all not at all “replied the sheep farmer “at one point of the competition it was a touch and go situation , it was quite a climax when I won ”
