Hello from the Dales
« on: March 09, 2011, 05:08:03 pm »
Hi - just saying hello.  I live in the Yorkshire Dales and have a few goats (3 Angoras and a pygmy cross),  lots of dogs and currently 20 of my mother's sheep who I will have to lamb in a couple of weeks time - eek!  My mum's poorly but will be able to give advice by phone, but I may be picking your brains out there to help if you don't mind!

Lovely forum - glad I found you  :)

Thanks everyone - it's fascinating to hear where you all live - some near and some very far!
