He looks at different ways of using wool, gets ready for 600 new hens and builds a shed shop for the tourists. Sweeny also heads to the bright lights of Edinburgh for the Scottish Rural Awards, where he is nominated, before heading back to the realities of crofting life and lambing - and early mornings. Definitely not Sweeny鈥檚 favourite time of the day!
