Is she a pet Al? They are funny creatures goats, we used to use them as wet nurses for orphan lambs, the only creature I know that can produce milk when it isn't pregnant or suckling its own young; I hope she makes a swift recovery
Very elderly pet - in the region of 16-18 years old (we had the call from Prince Andrew to check). Originally obtained with a view to kidding and milking, along with her lifelong partner in crime who had to be put to sleep earlier in the year. Never got that far, so they just helped dispose of the insane amounts of ash and willow around our place, and kept the odd pair of lambs company.
Now it's the sheep looking after her
We're seeing signs of her trying to take her weight on her legs and use them to change position while in the hoist, so not a lost cause yet.
"we had the call from Prince Andrew to check" just caused me to spit coffee all over my desk
Hope shes on the mend! Must stop buying shiny toys....
1) Family members who use my eBay account but leave things in the watch-list without pruning it when the item expires or they are no longer interested in it
2) Being kicked in the chest by a horse
3) My mil, who has just bought a new car because her current one had reached 17,000 miles and won't listen to advice to the contrary. My late fil always told her that was when cars got to 20,000 miles they started to get expensive and unreliable. The phrase "points need replacing" was actually heard this week.
Her: "This is going to be the last car I buy. It will see me out"
Me: "I wouldn't fill the tank all the way to the top, then".

Chav neighbour opposite looks like they’ve gone on hols with someone else. That someone else has left their Navara parked half on pavement outside my house right up to edge of our drive so turning right off our drive is a ‘blind manoeuvre’. To make it worse chav ’s two car drive is empty..... I may just use that seeing as in another thread it seems impossible to do anything about it if I did

Just nudge it back a couple of feet each day until it is right across his drive - naturally taking care not to be on any CCTV camera or in sight of curtain flapping neighbours.Rob Smith

They won’t taste good, added bonus of a bit of meat in each one.

My mother thinks 'LOL' stands for "lots of love" and includes it in messages where 'laugh out loud' would be utterly inappropriate.
"Sorry your hear that your dog died. LOL"
My mum does exactly the same I've told her but she's not learnt. "your auntie Joan has finally passed lol "
She also ends every message with ".XXX" which I have tried to explain to her is now a URL suffix that is used for - ahem - a certain online industry. It's now a mucky roulette based on the very last word of her text message to then see what clickable URL WhatsApp turns it into.D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

jack, dollys, shove, back on their drive in no time.
They'll look a bit puzzled, but pretty much guarantee they'll just scratch their heads and go "perhaps I did leave it in the drive"I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
