This gave us all a laugh at Farmers Weekly this week.

Kathryn Cross captured Norfolk shepherd David Cross at the beach showing off his sheep shearer’s suntan – she commented: “When you finally get to the beach after a long summer shearing sheep…”

We know how it feels, David, and we hope you enjoyed your refreshing dip after all your hard work.

You can send your photos to our Farmlife Framed gallery if you’d like to share your photo.
