With apologies to American friends, I've no idea whether Uni and gap years exist over there or what you call them. University is when state education finishes at age 18, and parents or debt fund higher education. Some choose to take a year which in my world means a displacement activity - something fun to defer the academic work (usually travelling).
Of course sheep are no different to us. Given the opportunity to take a holiday rather than work, they'll take that. Especially if it has a fun name like 'gap year' to legitimise it.
Jigsaw - online
What's more fun than a cuddle with a woolly critter?
Try completing a puzzle online - they have just the right number of pieces for a coffee-break challenge and you gradually reveal the cartoon.
If you like Yvonne then the good news is that you can support the author, buy the image to keep and avail yourself of some really useful kit, such as mugs, bags, coasters, mouse mats, postcards, greetings cards, even posters and prints.
Don't see the item you'd like with the cartoon you'd like? Just email me, I'll be happy to arrange it for you.
youngster: So before I start uni, I'm thinking of taking a gap year
Yvonne: Really? Where are you thinking of going?
youngster: Going...?
Yvonne: OK, so what are you thinking of doing?
youngster: Doing...?
