Title: Ratbag goat
Post by: Lesley Silvester on June 21, 2014, 12:11:58 am
Cloud has now worked out that if she tries to get out past me, I can stop her by leaning on her which traps her against the gate post. She's now taken to diving between my legs and getting out that way. I can see the water pistol is going to have to come out again or I can see me riding backwards round the garden.

That's right. Enjoy my suffering, Bloomer.  ;)   Maybe I could get one of the other goats to take a picture. Except the water pistol worked yet again. She was so busy trying to avoid the water hitting her between the eyes that she didn't realise Pom was out and the gate was shut again.  :roflanim:

I can sympathise. My naughty billy rubs his head on my bum then manages to push through my legs and I end up sat on his back. He's hating the horseflies at moment and seems to think its my fault! I never thought about the water pistol, I can see a shopping spree approaching...

If you have a Poundland near you, mine cost £1 for a pack of three water pistols - one for each hand and a spare.
