Shearing

Hiya! How are things? What's the craic? This is what I was listening to on the radio the other morning. Sheep Shearing. What you miss in the video is that this man is a third generation champion sheep shearer, and his son is currently away at a shearing competition as well. I want to say that this man can shear a sheep in 17 seconds....but I don't remember exactly. It was super fast. And also, that is not his real hair, it is a Jedward wig. For your viewing pleasure, sheep shearing:

Today is an epic day for Kevin...and others I am sure. The Champions League Final in soccer and his most favourite team, Chelsea, is playing. Countdown to game: 8 hours and 34 minutes.
It is also the Heineken Cup Rugy Final, Leinster vs Ulster. Two Irish teams, and by demographics we are Leinster fans. Like I said, epic day....oh the craic to be had. Lucky for us, Lisa is coming over to hang out with Max while we watch the matches in a pub.

Max on his bike. Now we are off to find him a helmet. We haven't had luck finding one that fits his large brain :)
