I received this message from a distraught farmers wife, please keep a look out. My husband has just returned from our farm situated in Mill Lane, Fletching - he was on the yard and heard loud shouting etc. and went out to investigate to find many runners shouting and running along the footpath - some of which were not on the footpath in an adjoining field. Our newly lambed ewes and lambs were in the footpath field and have been absolutely terrified by all this commotion - running in a panic lambs going in all directions and getting separated from their mothers. My husband went and spoke to these idiots and made himself very clear that they should respect the countryside and the animals in it. We had a similar incident a couple of years ago which resulted in the death of one our calves. I think the running club concerned call themselves "Hash Harriers" they run from pub to pub via footpaths shouting asthey go.
Good news all the lambs survived.

I received this message from a distraught farmers wife, please keep a look out. My husband has just returned from our farm situated in Mill Lane, Fletching - he was on the yard and heard loud shouting etc. and went out to investigate to find many runners shouting and running along the footpath - some of which were not on the footpath in an adjoining field. Our newly lambed ewes and lambs were in the footpath field and have been absolutely terrified by all this commotion - running in a panic lambs going in all directions and getting separated from their mothers. My husband went and spoke to these idiots and made himself very clear that they should respect the countryside and the animals in it. We had a similar incident a couple of years ago which resulted in the death of one our calves. I think the running club concerned call themselves "Hash Harriers" they run from pub to pub via footpaths shouting asthey go.
Good news all the lambs survived.

Another strange one, I have received a message from one of our members who keeps her horses on a farm along The Broyle, Ringmer, Lewes.
Phillip, I've had a youngster tagged in a field. She has a muzzle on and has had part of a shirt tied to her head collar over night in lots of knots. This was over night Tuesday/Wednesday.
Police have been advised, if you have any information on this please call Sussex Police on the non emergency telephone number 101 and quote Reference 1221-21/08/2014
