Yes, that was me, I got nettled by Little Dodd this morning.
Hebridean sheep, no doubt bred to eat what's in front of them, including soggy seaweed, are also placid munchers of nettles. Most grazing animals don't eat nettles but Hebs do.
So there I was giving Little Dodd his morning bottle, he's covered in nettle seeds, but also a large nettle leaf - which stung me very successfully.
He's down to 2 half measure bottles of very watery Wonderlamb a day. And at the end of this week, it's grass. And nettles.
