I leave the kid on and milk as well.  Mind you, that is with a single kid so I did get some milk for myself.

San & me go on a training day next weekend at panboune goats (thinks that's right) its down in Devon somewhere San wanted it for 12th wedding anniversary - she has fallen in love with golden Guernsey (what can you do)

well done with your hope all goes well
when the revolution comes it will be a co-op

I think we need photos  ;D

I leave twins on and milk. Separate them at night at about 3 months onwards, milk in the morning and then leave the kids with mum all day so I don't have to milk at night (as I work away from home :P)
