One of my best phantom planter memories!

-

 Was this day 4 years ago I was down mulching some phantom plum trees I have near the Mourne Mountains,  then I decided to go for a walk in the mountains.

As we were walking we had spotted a wee sheep with its heads stuck in a hole and it wasn't for moving, turns out it had a broken leg.

So I carried it off the mountain and brought it to a vet, they said if its kept off the leg it should heal ok but if it goes back on the mountain it will die.


I had put a post on here back then to see if anyone wanted to look after it and one nice family got in touch with me and took the wee sheep in, turns out it was a girl and they named her Flossie.


Flossie made a full recovery thanks to this lovely family putting in so much effort to look after her.

They made her a sling and other aids to keep her of her leg so she could heal correctly.

To this day Flossie is living her life on a farm with a horse as a friend.

I have went and visited her a few times and her tail was wagging when she seen me, think she remembered me!


I had managed to find out who the farmer was that owned the sheep on the mountain and let him know what had happened and also to ask if we could keep it as I got attached to her and didnt want to see her on someones dinner plate as thats what would have happened if I had put her back up on the mountain!


He was happy for us to keep it but he did say he didn't think it would last more than a few weeks as its a wild sheep, but Flossie proved us wrong!


This is up there with my best phantom planter memories yet!


Two of the pics is me carrying Flossie off the mountain, think she knew I was helping her as she was so relaxed and the other is her a couple of years later looking all Regal looking in the snow.

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with ...

 Good morning guys, most of you have probably seen my disheartened post the other day about me feeling a bit down on the financial side of things to do with the Phantom Planter. I've been trying for so long now to earn a decent living from it to help fuel my passion in what I'm doing. There's nothing more I'd love to be doing than going round phantom planting fruit trees and maintaining them, getting my free fruit tree map app all updated and promoting it also so everyone can have free fresh fruit. I also have plans for my Oak Grove museum and several other community and nature projects I had on my mind. But for the past while I've been spending hours every day doing all sorts of work to do with the phantom planter and It's always been in the back of my head at times, what am I doing?? As most of you know I've been donated a small plot of land and I'm intending on building a cabin on it and I need money to do this. I'm living in a rotted rented cabin...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
