I didn't get to meet any of the presenters  :(  I believe its Alasdair presenting this show too, would have loved to have met him!!

I am so excited as I have just watched the section with Plums in it.  You were great!  It was so lovely to see your gorgeous goats, and also to visualize your soap making set up.  I found it fascinating.  Well done you.  Hope it gets you more business and don't forget to mention the programme everywhere you go!  And of course, it's so nice to put a face to a name.  :wave:

I suddenly remembered yesterday afternoon .....so downed tools and put my laptop on to watch!!

It was so nice to "see" you and your lovely goats - and also see your soaps too.  I am sure people watching will be looking on the internet to find your soap making business, bringing in new customers for you.

Plums,
I saw it too and thought you were very good and quite natural.  Well done.

Lisa - you were very natural and not a bit affected by the cameras - the goats behaved well too didnt they lol
Reggie certainly looks smart - and Savannah she looked lovely too- meant to ask you saw the milking stand again in the field - do you milk in all weathers ??? outside

Thank you for your lovely comments!

I do milk outside, all seasons/weathers  :) there always seems to be a quick enough break in the weather for me to dash out and do it - luckily only milking once a day now and I can only remember once getting drenched over the last year so its not too bad! one day I'll have a cover over it though, just finding the time!

I watched it last night on iplayer (don't have TV) and thought you looked as if you'd often been on TV you were so natural.  I think I'm in love with Savannah.   :love:  She's gorgeous.  :goat:

I knew I wouldn't be able to guarantee being in at 3pm and had a visit to my Mum lined up, so called her and asked her to record it!  We all watched it last night, after I had given her the goats' milk bath salts I had brought for her and thought you, your goats and your kitchen and soap-making all looked lovely.  :)  Savannah is beautiful and behaved so well!  And the soaps looked good enough to eat!
