"Yesterday was horrendous," Amanda began, adding: "Sleet and snow thawing made for serious flooding and dangerous situations whilst trying to fodder the sheep."

A second video featured on her social media even showed a number of sheep being carried away by the flood, but Amanda assured her 536k followers that, thankfully, no animals were harmed. They stayed on low-lying ground as gale-force winds blew on tops but this was scary. You do your best but we were lucky that there were no casualties."
