you can nigel

but storing the straws is a problem, it's easier on the mainland
where it wouldn't be much of a problem ,
some of the goats where you got yours were lovely and more of the size that deb would need Wink
couldn't post on over for her could you Wink
what i've got in my hand is the remains of a leather headcollar Rolling Eyes that he broke
he has his own run attached to a shed
which is 25 feet by 20 feet and gets to watch live go by and on around him Wink he has company which he'll need Wink
