Was messing about with the camera this afternoon and took some shots of the horses for you to see.

Here goes, hope this works

Here's a photo or 3 of Bill as asked. He's a really sweet man to be honest. Loves people, kids, horses and of course food lol

But as you may see from the pics he hates getting brushed so he's a bit tatty!!


He joined uswith his brother (ben, who sadly passed away) a nanny goat and 3 kids when I got the stables. Being that he's very much a pet and will walk on a lead he does still manage to frighten some people on the lotties with those horns lol. But he's also been up to mischief a few times and I did get a call once from the local police to say they were in a ladies garden looking through her window!!



Unfortunately I had to rehome the other goats as they were just too much and kept climbing over the fences and wandering away, but Bill is very happy with the horses and visits the horses in the next field too. He's also handy for clearing the tracks between the allotments, although he does tend to find a way in to some of the lotties now and again, which usually means I have to do some grovelling!

He's a pedigree Golden Guernsey goat and they are registered on the rare breeds list.



He does have a bad habit of rolling in the large bales of hay we have for the horses, must be comfy cos we often find him asleep in the middle of it all. A couple of days ago he managed to get his horns stuck in the hay and I had to drag him out, was exhausting but at least he's ok.

He also hates the rain so has his own "house" that he can go in and out of when he wants lol
