JA's parents were from our island, Leódhas agus na-Hearadh, in the Western Isles and lived in Loch Ailort. His parents were from na-Hearadh (Harris) and there were, and still is , many, many men that are strong like that in our islands. The Basque men in some districts are reputed to be the same. JA used to come across here trialing and was a character with great stories. It was grand to watch him run and hear the stories. Duine comasach(an able man)👍

Lovely. Was a shepherd. My I miss those days. Those Cheviots were grand.
Looks like his pull over has given good value!.
Picks up 127kg stag carcass and carries it on his back over hill and dale to home.
Wonder man, a tribute to our clan.
Top dog man and top stock man 👍👍

1990. Check the conversation at 24.22. They ask the man how long had he been with his employer, and he says since in 1930, and then he say 60 years.

When weather was normal.
What if he herded all the sheepinto one big pile then jumped in
The sheep did not graze at all just runing here and there for the occasion of filming the video .
He says he needs to move them up each day as he has no fence lower down.
