Well while we were at Newark show, I were having a look around the art thingy, at all the farming pics by a famous Lincolnshire artist, Robin Wheeldon.
For example:
http://website.lineone.net/~johnnick/painting.html
Well, I've never seen a painting of a Lincoln Longwool, and thought I'd ask him to do me one. Turns out, he was stood next to me and I didn't notice 
Anyways, he said he's very interested in painting me and me Lincolns, as well as me Lincolnshire chickens!
He's going to contact us soon to organise something 
you might soon be able to buy an oil painting of me

Would cost a hell of a lot of money probably, but it would be worth it, his orignals sell for like £500+!
The Marshall I go on, Teapot, he's painted that a few times
The 1st pic on here is Teapot:

Don't they keep that locked up, under strict supervision in a climate comtrolled environment and under subdued lighting. I don't think James would enjoy that very much,
  . On the other hand it might keep him under control a bit, .
Cheers
Chris
