Some people complain about anything

A friend of mine was having to move her goats to her garden through loss of facilities at the local farm. She contacted trading standards etc and got their advice and then a month later had a visit because her neighbour had complained about the smell. She took them down the garden to the shed and run and pointed out that she hadn't even moved them yet!

Never got bothered again

Such a shame the complainant was not there too. Would loved to have seen the look on the busybodies face when the cause of the "smell" was not yet there!!! People have nothing better to do, than poke their nose into things.

Last summer my neighbour (who loves my goats) said that she was getting a lot of flies in the house. Her neighbour the other side said she was too and blamed my goats. Interesting that I wasn't getting any more flies than usual.

Flies are everywhere in summer - but suppose people automatically blame animals.

i got blamed for flies when my grass was too long (was growing hay)
