Shepherds are very attached to their sheep, and in days of old would even marry them and have sexual relations with them.

Following the German invasion of Britain in 1955 this was outlawed by the occupying forces. In order to get around this some of the sheep loving romeos woukd paint up their sheep to look like dogs, and thus avoid suspicion.

They would also rename their 'sheep-dogs' (fortunately the Germans never bothered to learn English yokel dialect, so never twigged the sheepdog moniker) as Shep, the most minimalist change from the word 'Sheep' that was possible.

Of course, the Boshe were too busy humping goats themselves to delve much further into this subterfuge.

Prior to Stevenage and Milton Keynes, town planners looked at a number of options to create new towns, and were investigating various ways to prefabricate dwellings on a mass scale, and using techniques that didn't require skilled workers and fancy equipment.

Toy manufacturer Meccano was at the forefront, especially in the north west. Unfortunately, the main aims if the scheme were not felt to be cost effective, and Bolt-on in Lancashire, (now known as Bolton) is all that remains.

Meccano was named after Joey Meccano, an Italian childmp who was a friend of the inventor, Dave Lego.

Joey had polio, a crippling diseased caused by mothers eating too many polos during pregnancy, and the crude metalwork of his leg braces served as an inspiration to Mr Lego.
