Not mine, unfortunately. Found him at a local pub where we had lunch. Took a fancy to my bag.

Yes I love goats too.Used to keep them.I love the way they jump up on any available thing cos they miss the mountains.One I used to have came out with me in my convertible,(with the hood down in nice weather,) sat up in the front passenger seat with a flower trimmed straw hat on.Sometimes I put shades on her, she didn't mind, and they stayed on till she moved her head. Sorry, unfortunately no photos......Posie..

Speaking of which:



That's Samson from the local community farm.

I dunno about the cheeky and comical bit: my experience is that they're cantankerous gits. When there's a bunch of new kids visiting them, Samson and Benjy will somehow always manage to find the smallest child and knock them over. We try to keep an a eye on them but they're so sneaky!

Gosh, that Billygoat (or castrated Billy) looks almost human ! Are you sure it's a goat? You say he's difficult, I bet he has changed homes or changed handlers, goats find it difficult to change home or handler...Back to your photo, it's the teeth that get me. .......Posie...

Its a shame you didin't have a picture of that. Didn't it ever try to eat the seats or chew the gear stick?

They're not difficult as such, they're just sneaky and cantankerous. I get on fine with them. I won't put up with any xexexexe but I brush their coats and give them a scratch too.

A breed known as Romney Marsh or often shortened to Kent.

those Zwartbles are interesting, very nice.

Sorry I misquoted you.What you interpret as sneaky and cantankerous, some of us would interpret as 'comical and cheeky,' at least till we got fed up with it, then we'd say they were 'sneaky and cantankerous', .........Are they MALES ????
