This is what Keith will be aiming to do next Christmas when he has finished experimenting with LED sequencing.
Life in north east England (yes, we've moved!) with an eccentric Welshman and a small white dog that thinks he's a Rottweiler.
What you can do with lights and sheep
I found this on a post by a friend of ours on Facebook and I'm not sure where it comes from but it does permit sharing, so here goes...

Words of wisdom
I found this on Elder Daughter's Facebook a few weeks ago and saved it. Today, I thought I would share it with you:
LETTER FROM A MOTHER TO A DAUGHTER:
"My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all,
try to understand what I’m going through.
If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say: “You said the
same thing a minute ago”... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and

try to understand what I’m going through.
If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’t interrupt to say: “You said the
same thing a minute ago”... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and
I would read the same st
ory night after night until you would fall asleep.
When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run
after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?
When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don’t
look at me that way... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately,
getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life’s issues every day... the day you see I’m getting old, I ask
you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I’m going through.
If I occasionally lose track of what we’re talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can’t, don’t be nervous,
impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.
And when my old, tired legs don’t let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offere
d mine to you when you first walked.
When those days come, don’t feel sad... just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of
my life with love.
