Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Yeah but your OH is a regular - we're newbies  ;D ;D ;D Just following in his footsteps  :thumbsup:

I like his photo guides by the way.

no "magazine" in my title - and I had no idea what you are talking about. Not in the "circle of trust" as the Fokkers would say.

Loved the first two films, they should have stopped then.

If there is such a thing here I'd say you're in it as much as anyone.  :thumbsup:

Many thanks to Rosemary for putting the article together! It's a great advert for Scotland. (Maybe we'd better get passport control at Gretna!)

Sorry MAK :-* Should have put "magazine" in the title.

Anke has an article in CS magazine this month on goats; I've got one about smallholding in Scotland, which features Crofter and Andrew. And Tim Tyne, VSS's OH, has an article on tailing and castrating  ;D

Well I really enjoyed reading my copy last night!! SO nice to put faces to names and keep elbowing hubby to say " I know her..." "and him" and "ooh look, that's Anke...she's helped with my goats soooo many times....". In the end he did say to be quiet  ;)
well done all of you - really fantastic read!
