Farmer Dances With Her Sheep to Find Fame Overnight

Lesley Perrett dances with her sheep once a year and this video is the most popular one yet

A farmer in Bradworthy has found fame overnight after sharing a video of herself dancing with her sheep on Facebook.

In the video, Lesley Perret, who runs Brexworthy Farm with her husband, dances to the song ‘I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’' by the Scissor Sisters, while her sheep chew on hay and look bemused in the background.

Lesley says that she shared the video to the Facebook group ‘Ladies who Lamb’ as part of an annual tradition where she uploads a video of herself dancing with her sheep.

“It’s a bit of an odd year, so our admin, Debs, decided to try and get everyone else to do a video so we could all cheer each other up,” she said.

Lesley was the first person to upload her video last night. Since then, it’s had 4,000 views and continues to be watched.

“This year it’s all gone a bit mad” said Lesley, who thinks that more people are watching due to lockdown.

Lesley says that she isn’t a fan of the fame: “I’m quite happy just to stay in my sheep shed! I only do one video a year.”

But that she hopes the video can boost morale during what has been a difficult period of lockdown.

As the video was getting so many views, Lesley decided to add a link to a donation page for the Fountain Centre, a hospital in Guildford that has been treating one of her close family members for cancer. “I had a target of £200 but it was up to nearly £300 this morning,” said Lesley.

Would be better if she was at least moderately attractive.

Look at what the planet has come with when news media doesn’t have President Trump around to lie about.

“But you f**k one sheep...”

Here’s the short version of a joke:

Some shepherds took a new guy to a remote place where sheep were kept. The new guy said it seemed like a very boring job. The other guys said, well, we have a little fun with the sheep. The new guy said ok I’ll try, and went off into the flock and was enjoying one of the sheep. Then he saw the other guys laughing at him. He asked why. They said he picked the ugliest one in the flock.

DailyMail once ran a story about an English sheep farmer who made her own wedding dress out of wool:

That wool really cleaned up nicely!

I’ll try to keep this one short.

The traveling showman in the old west was also a ventriliquist. He comes across a sheep herder and joins him for supper at his camp. The sheep herder says how nice it is to have company.

“Well - you can always talk to your horse.”

“Well sure, but he don’t talk back!”

So the showman throws is voice and the horse talks about how good his owner is, etc.

“Well - how about your dog? You must talk to your dog?”

Same thing, dog says how great a master he is, etc.”

Then the showman sees a sheep nearby.

“Your sheep must talk I’m sure!?”

“Oh - that sheep? Oh she talks. But she LIES!”

I just noticed that in that picture I posted there is another wolf in the back not wearing a disguise. Wonder why they added that one in. Ruins the ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’ thing.
