Are those goats still roaming TB - who's the owner? They look beautiful but they can be a menace to homeowners who love flowers and fruit trees.
Thanks for the pics Rebecca keep them coming.

What a difference the years has made. When I was a little girl the only Christmas tree I ever saw was the one My beloved Aunt Daph made from a tree branch using cotton as the snow.
She also used regular socks as Christmas stockings and put little goodies in them for us.
We were happy to get out the ice cream bucket and make home made ice cream.

Nicely done Olive.What a joy for the children to see.
