Hello,
 
I am the trainee warden at a nature reserve right on the Herts/Bucks border near Tring. We have a lone Highland cow that we are looking to re-home and wondered if you or anyone would have space for her. She is 10 years old and very friendly but her companion recently died so we are looking to move her on.
 
Thankyou kindly,
 
Gareth Luscombe

I would love to take her but I am too far away on the Cheshire/Derbyshire border.  :'(
