I'm certain we're all getting terrible withdrawal symptoms now that the BBC- televised Indoor Bowling Championships at Potters Leisure Centre are over for yet another year.
It certainly had me riveted to my hay bale for a fantastic unforgettable week last week!
Both mens' and womens' finals the climaxes of nerve tingling excitement. Shear out n' out top sheep entertainment all the way......
The roaring flock of snowheads baaaaa on the gladiators...
'
The shear athleticism and gym-honed bods of the competitors astounds at the Potters Leisure Centre...
.
Astounding accuracy on the big blue field....
'
The assembled flock of garden shed potterers go wild with excitement at the sight of the two young ewe finalists fighting it out too....
'
Meantime in the ram's final...
..... who's won the end?
The suspense is killing...
'
... absolutely stress on big fat tractor wheels...
'
And yes it goes to ram Marshall in the dyed orange wool corner, who goes ballistic with joy.

Just as a matter of interest, the co-sponsor of Sheep Super Bowl along with the fantastic Potters Holidays for the over-60s, are, as you can begin to make out on the arm patch here - and tasefully cut off by the director - none other than Co-operative Funeralcare Ltd.

Roll on next year's championships, a real surefire tonic for the national flock's January blues
