Hi Maggie and wlecome. I too have ducks, hens, shetland ponies, geese, hens, goats, a rabbot, parrot and cocker spaniels. Yesterday I rescued 2 geese who I hoped would keep my other lone goose company but alas it is WW3 with them. I should have known as my 1 is male and the 2 that arrived yesterday are a pair. I have them seperate but my old boy is not amused.

Welcome, Maggie.  I'm going to be down your way this weekend - Crufts looms large in the dog world  ;D ;D  Driving to Stafford SAt night then onto the NEC early Sunday, then home again at night.  A long drive for me and my two friends but at least we can share the driving - wave to the NEC and we'll wave back - make it 11am - I should be finished in the ring by then. ;D ;D ;D

Hello and welcome Maggie, love the name Lilac Unicorn, conjures up a mystical image, you go well with Wizard!! I am in Clackmanna too, loads of us on here. I moved from Leicestershire over 3 years ago and don't miss the M6 at all, always ended up on the wrong road :) (on the right roadnowthough ;))
