right i'm keeping hamsters  ,the little billy arrived and he is the sweetest thing i've seen  ,he stands about knee high ,he's only a baby ,shaggy ginger hair and is really gentle holi took one look and had murder in her eye ,carried him to the goatshed ,and put him in the back pen with suki who is a real sweety ,she thinks he's going to kill her and holi has just butted down the gate ,still peace has returned ,and he's stood there as good as gold eatting quietly out of his bucket ,on goats verses cows
nigel GET COWS  pics hopefully tomorrow

his name is hamish  ,he really is cute even the oh likes him ,
i didn't expect it to go easily because holi takes after her mother and nobody could put up with her ,she moved slowly from one home to the next coming further up north from just outside of portsmouth and then when we went to get 2 toggs up here on the isle she started following us we were told she was going to the abotior we took her home with us with a sannan ,she cut her udder badly and got mastitis and gangerine  ,she ended up a 1 uddered goat  ,she died last year  and her daughter is the same as her but she has a home for life  ,and any homes that nannys go to are home checked first
