GO UP TO TINDALE POST OFFICE FOR SWEETS BEFORE WALKING ALONG THE OLD RAILWAY LINE CLIMBING OVER THE RUSTY OLD RAIL WAGONS FORGOTON AND LEFT BEHIND. MY UNCLE JIM WAS A SHEPHERD AND HE WOULD TRAIN SHEEP DOGS AND BRING THE PUPS HOME . HE KEPT CHICKENS SO FRESH EGGS WERE ON THE TABLE EVERY DAY. HE KEPT BEES SO HONEY FOR BREAKFAST MMM .THE SOUND OF SHEEP BLEETING THE FELLS TO ROAM IN I NEVER WANTED TO GO HOME .
