The message
from "Franz Heymann" contains these
words:

Then I recommend what I used to do when I was ickle - go out with a
bucket and shovel and take home the hors d'offerings which steamed in
the road.

I do it now. There is always a small coal shovel and a poly bag in the
boot. But even here, in the Dales, horses are not all that prevalent
nowadays.

Sheepsh composts well.

Yes, but being distributed in smaller, widely spread packages, it is rather
tedious to collect significant amounts.
