But it's in a baaaaaaad neighborhood


It seems that the sheep like the old Hobbiton set in New Zealand:

The rolling green pastures that provided the backdrop for director Peter Jackson’s trilogy were originally going to be converted into hobbit theme park, to attract tourists to the town of Matamata on the country's North Island.

But the plans were shelved, and the land is now home to 12,000 sheep and 250 cattle.

I guess I should hasten to add that there are no sheep inside the Chez Borepatch secure perimeter ...

A "baaaaaaad" neighborhood indeed. After all, there's a world-famous burglar who lives there. :)
