Yeah, we had that, did not need to trim the hedge that year or remove the goosegrass either. Heaven knows what they would do in a nice vegetable garden, hmmmmmm?
Gardening is the great leveller.

Did you try squashing them under the heel of your shoe?

The cows in the fields behind us have even eaten the wind breaker material.. now what will that do to stomaches1, 2 and 3 ??? ???
Take time to stop and smell the flowers.

Hahaha...Ina....not even your clogs would have much impact!!  ;D

Mimi.......hope you don't drink the local brew??  ;D

I actually look forward to them visiting !! ......and the 7 horses just parked up the hill!!   ;D  Have been known to have a chat,  when home alone!!  ::)  ;D

Ha ha me too  :D The  boys and girls love to come around 6pm for a bit of apple or carrot.  Have to be careful though, the ponys we have  are welsh cobs and have viscious tempers.  Have to make sure that they only get the fruit and veggies and no fingers. :-\

I do sometimes give them a shower with the hose-pipe, they love it!!  ;D

Mimi........do you also find that the sheep talk back to you ??  ;D

.........and do your teenagers lock you in the shed, as mine do, when their friends visit??  ;D  ::)  ;D

Magpie Di how did you know ;)  Thank God that I dont have any neighbours.  And, yes they do lock me in the shed and occasionally the greenhouse, but I dont care it is better than being locked into the kitchen. ;D I also tried the hose pippy thing and yep they love that too..  I thought that the water would scare them off but not hurt them.  B****r me if they dont come back for more.
