IN WEST Burton, Wensleydale, the Dent family got this year's Christmas festivities off to a lovely start with a tour of the village by sheep-drawn sleigh.
The sheep doing the pulling was Poppy, a pet lamb that has been a family favourite ever since, and was led here by daughter Chloe (who had the original idea), hauling a festive sleigh put together by her mum and dad David and Tracy, with siblings Luke and Kirsty standing by on elf and safety duty.
