I did my good deed for the day today when I freed a sheep from a fence. By the look of it the sheep, whose head was firmly stuck through the wire fence, had been stuck there some time, wool thickly coated the wires where the animal had repeatedly tried to free itself and the ground beneath it too churned up by its efforts. Now, it wasn't too happy with our approach, though could do little about it. I tried all sorts of things, I pulled it, I tried to stretch the wire, cut the wire; in the end I climbed the fence and tried to manipulate the sheeps head back through whilst gently pushing. Eventually it was through and free; it ran off and we continued on our way. It's nice to be nice.
