Sheep Breed: Swaledale
Swaledale sheep are named for the Yorkshire valley of Swaledale. They live in the mountainous areas of Great Britain, focused predominantly in County Durham, Yorkshire, and the lower fells of Cumbria. The Swaledale has proved itself to be a bold, able-bodied, and hardy sheep breed. These sheep are of medium build with black faces (sometimes speckled with white), and both males and females grow curled horns. They are well-fitted to endure the hardships of exposed and high-lying situations. Swaledale ewes are excellent lamb rearers. Their off-white coats are thick, straight, and coarse and they produce wool that is durable in wear and of even texture. Being excellent feeders and of strong constitution, as mutton producers they are second to none.

Anachronorm for the Millennium
It would be nice to work in a place that allowed you to wear jeans to work, or to have gone to a school that allowed denim; alas, your glass has been half full of chinos for a long time. Time was, you and your boy, Chris, used to kick the old bull about finding the pair that would not be of the moment, or even the year, but a pair for the millennium. Now, while no conclusions can be drawn without a full test of the equipment, it appears that a strong candidate has emerged out of Okayama, Japan, from the brand Anachronorm.
