One of the weirder genres of stories we cover here on Sick Chiprse is when farmyard animals break away from their owners and inflict chaos on unsuspecting villagers and we’ve got another one here with reports of hooligan sheep terrorising a place called Kidnalls Drive in the Forest of Dean.

The sheep in question come under the tutelage of 74 year old shepherd Jeremy Awdry who insists that they should be allowed to graze anywhere in the forest under ‘common of mast’ laws that were devised in the Middle Ages. However, locals are exasperated by the situation, claiming that the sheep are preventing them from sleeping, pooing everywhere and also screwing up their gardens by trampling all over them and eating all their plants.

Here’s what 65 year old homeowner Jeff Beveridge had to say about the situation:

We can’t grow anything out the front. There are only two bushes so far that the sheep won’t eat – lavender and rosemary.

In the front of everybody’s house the developers put escallonia, a nice flowering shrub, and the sheep ate that. They’ll eat anything.

If the lambs are distressed and they can’t find the ewe, their mother’s looking for them and both of them will be bleating all the time.

We can hear them at night and in the early hours of the morning they’ll be here.

They wake us up. They keep you awake in the middle of the night if they’re making noise and it’s quiet.

It is absolutely a nuisance. Muck, noise and sadly he’s not a nice man to deal with.

What I don’t like is when my children have to walk on the road because there’s so much poo.

It’s an inconvenience and it carries disease, all that poo.

Lol this is such a classic British dispute between stupid neighbours who are both too stubborn to back down about anything isn’t it? Wonder if this kind of stuff happens in other countries like Spain or Italy?

Anyway, I do actually think that this Awdry guy is being a major dickhead about all this though because he could quite easily just let his sheep hang out somewhere that isn’t pxssing everyone off. They’re living in a forest FFS, it’s not like there isn’t any open land around the area. Guy is a classic old jerk and hopefully it’s not too long before someone hangs him and his stupid sheep out to dry.
