Today I visited with Ian and Pearl on their
small holding where they have Highland Cattle and of course they are both
from Scotland :-)

Ah well... Ian and Pearl's picture didn't come
out too well but the Highland Coo's came out a treat

They also have 9 bea hives and a cat!

They have wee ornaments all over the gardens

And that very morning we have a new calf and
here it is with her mum and I guess two protective aunts!

They said they'd name the wee calf "Ali" after
myself in honour of my visit :-)

This was a picture of the first time the wee
calf managed to get to the teat

And ducks!

And that concluded the tour of the small
holding which I certainly enjoyed very much indeed and many thanks to Ian
and Pearl for sharing their home with me.

And as you noticed I got taken to a football
game on the way back :-)

And I got back just in time to have dinner
with another member of the Stuart family. Their son Craig came over for
dinner and so I got a chance to take a family picture along with the cat!

Pearl sent me in a picture of her with Fiona
and on the right with my namesake "Ali" :-) |
