I would think the problem is the seller's wording.  S/he's written "for sale due to ill health" - I assume it means the seller's own health but it could be read as s/he's selling them because they're ill!

I would certainly be round there for a look-see if I were nearer.

They would make a good little starter for me. (Wouldn't want to spend too much until I know what I'm doing.)
Shame i haven't got anywhere to keep them  :'(  and the fact hey are the opposite end of the country  ::)
